I've not listened to it, but it's already given me so much more value than I expected.

I'm not making a living writing or anything, but I love how easy nostr makes it to get paid for articles. I had to run my own lightning mode to allow people to pay me 210 sats on yalls.org. It's a cool site, that let's you do cool things like create a hashcash inbox, but there is no way to make writing profitable on calls, especially if you consider hardware costs.

I also wrote a WordPress blog and added a BTCpayServer instance from LunaNode. A hundred thousand blocks or so ago, Someone sent me 10,000 sats and I was overjoyed, but it didn't cover one month of the server cost.

#Nostr allows artists to get paid sats with almost no upfront or recurring cost. Anyone with a smart phone can earn sats writing, selling paintings, or whatever with very little cost(if any). I've never made a sat on platforms like medium, substack, or X. I doubt I could make $11 per month(or whatever a blue check costs) on X, but it's pretty easy to make 11,000 sats on nostr. I wish more people understood this.
