## COPYRIGHT In a free (stateless) society there will be no State protection for copyrights. So writers and artists what's your plan? If you're work goes viral how will you capitalize on that? QR codes anyone? I would like to see Nostr coders developer paywalls for initial distribution. What do you think? Let's chat about it? #copyright #paywall #writers #artists

In the 1400s and 1500s, independent artists such as authors and painters often relied on the patronage system to finance their work. This system involved securing the support of a wealthy individual, usually a noble or a member of the clergy, who would provide financial backing for the artist in exchange for the artist's services. In the future - the same dynamics might once again become the norm. Perhaps systems such as Patreon is foreshadowing what is to come. Wealthy bitcoiners could become the future patronage.
