I usually zap lot of people randomly, I just do it to help plebs understand lighting & zapping language.⚡️🫂

What you think about this ? 👀

Lightning saved Bitcoin.

Why is giving away pennies so addicting

Indeed! I think the ultimate goal of any author, journalist, musician, artist, storyteller, etc... is to be able to share their work with the entire world, not have to hide their information from people. In order for a free market of ideas to compete, ideas need to be spread far and wide across the globe. This frictionless competition of ideas will only lead to maximizing the potential of the human condition.

Lets fucking Goooo ! 🎉🧡💜⚡️

#value4value is blowing my mind.

So excited. Always feel let down by Fiat Brains who expect the best for the least.

Give value on Twitter. Hardly get a thank you. 😂

Made me come here to be amongst the plebs that get it.

⚡ Post a lightning bolt below and I'll zap you! ⚡

Do any of y’all plebs have a lightning node setup and want to open a channel?

Bitcoin maximalism is just aligning yourself with truth. No wonder it is considered toxic today.

It can be disheartening that even in bitcoin we have many people who still don’t get it.

Despite some being here for many years.

Thankfully this doesn’t matter to bitcoin and is simply a personal pet peeve of mine.

🇺🇸 U.S court has ruled that these emojis " 🚀📈💰" are investment advice.

Words are violence,

Emojis are investment advice,

WTF is going on? 🤡🤦‍♂️

Exactly! I can totally envision this new world where information isn't held back from the masses but shared far and wide for anyone to see it. It'll allow all of humanity to benefit from it on intellectual and informative levels. There have been a few Bitcoin articles written over the years, where if they were produced today, I'd have been inspired enough to do exactly as you suggest. Not all content is created equal (in the eyes of the beholder) so having this freedom to be able to Zap along micropayments at a variable rate feels like such a liberating concept.

Nostr moves so fast it’s amazing. ⚡️Zaps⚡️ have already become a natural part of the experience and everyone’s finding their stride using them. I’m seeing more consistent patterns both in what I send and receive. Maybe you’re feeling the same. It’s awesome to be part of the beginning of this 🔥💜 Give value where you receive value. The quality will rise, the signal will strengthen, and the noise and grifters will find it harder to gain attention. We are the algorithm and ⚡️zaps⚡️ attach real tangible value to meaningful interactions. 💜🤙

Tell me an interesting fact I don’t know and I’ll zap a bunch of you. ⚡️⚡️⚡️

- Can Nostr eliminate or minimize our current online content paywalls?

- Obviously the main reason content providers hide their information behind paywalls is to be able to effectively monetize their work.

- The question then becomes, can Nostr scale large enough to where content providers are supplied with enough revenue through support of their content w/ zap micropayment donations to eventually eliminate paywalls?

- An example here would be, say a journalist has 100,000 regular user supporters who on avg zap 100 satoshis (or approx 2 cents) per article = 100,000 x 0.02 = $2,000. Not a bad financial reward for a story.

- small micropayment donations might not seem like much from a user's perspective, but they can add up for a content creator who has a wide audience.

- Smaller content creators could also suggest minimum donation amounts for their content, as they're attempting to scale their audience, so that supporters have a general idea of what is would be required to keep their continued efforts afloat.

- What would be the benefit of a content provider being able to support their livelihood without having to hide their work behind a paywall?

- The elimination of paywalls exposes the content provider to the reach of a wider audience, which will presumably result in the increased advancement of their support base (try before you buy).

- For Example, the Grateful Dead innovated a brand new music model & subsequent creation of an entire community in which they allowed their audience to freely record & trade bootlegs of their live concerts.

- This innovation sparked a guerilla marketed 'word of mouth' growth movement that eventually paved the way for the band to able to organically grow in popularity over time & resulted in the band selling out large stadiums in their later years without the support of the mainstream music industry.

- The absence of paywalls combined with the ease of micropayments through lightning network can allow for information and ideas to widely, quickly & frictionlessly advance throughout the global online community.

- It frees users to pick and choose which specific information they want to support & donate to, on an article to article, or video to video, etc... basis.

- Users aren't locked into an all or nothing subscription based arrangement.

I am not bullish enough 😂

I don't think that will happen in my lifetime
