I mean if we all would start now, free services could become easily unsustainable. But they have a way to be sustainable and even profitable now. So this is not the case.
How would you convince people? Seems a tough job.
I guess one way is, we start doing it to support the tools we like. Then other people see it, and it might catch on.
But sounds hard to compete with "free", when they have huge infrastructure behind them. So basically they have a first movers advantage.
Do you think general public like to pay for services or like to have "free" services?

You mean the top 500 companies, the index, or their investors?
Src?
It is so interesting how a lot of people are generally closed to use many tools, because they already use many apps.
I guess also the "closedness" of all apps to increase friction for change is there.

I am test using it. So far awesome. What I noticed so far, is I have to reopen the app if I want to see instant receive.
Do you "have" a wallet with ecash, or you just have ecash tokens saved locally? I assume the second, or?
Minibits have a lightning address! ๐ค I use that. Fun stuff!
You are the 5 apps you interact most with.

Good morning! โ๏ธ Have a great start of the week! ๐ค
I guess, if people have bitcoin, they value it. So if you want them to give you their bitcoin, you must give them more value then their bitcoin. This is kind of hard, coming from an economical view of you are forced to buy things, because your money will worth nothing. Also probably bitcoiners time preference is longterm, therefore they are not rushing to buy things. Maybe I am super wrong.
This is somehow expecting competing products and services.
Hmmm, that would be funny. I guess you can, just you are limited in some sense by the charset
I think this is also based on people's expectation of zero cost apps.
Do you think v4v can succeed in such environment as well? If yes, what is your 5 cents? If not, how will it change it?
Good morning nostr:npub175ydvjhtxxavq53j0pquclw4njwn0svzzq4qfzjrjzv23wupdk4seh25c3 ! Is it โ๏ธ or ๐ซ?

Maybe we shall look into make bridges between other not decentralized social media, and allow interaction between them and nostr. That could be fun.
They could. But I guess, if a mint has one user, and you know the node of the mint, you know the node of the user. Therefore, you lose privacy with it. But not fully sure.
Nostr seems like an echo chamber.
We shall open the gates!
