For whatever reason, on-chain feels more magical than Lightning sometimes. Maybe because it actually works consistently. 😅

Agreed; just make sure not to lose yourself on the way. nostr:note187cvjgsmeewjt2sn2n4guaxpen57e8299aea42f6eqmsgww2kkvsyxz0ma
Does the built-in Cashu wallet on nostr:npub15dc33fyg3cpd9r58vlqge2hh8dy6hkkrjxkhluv2xpyfreqkmsesesyv6e count?

This was quite literally my path to working on nostr:npub15dc33fyg3cpd9r58vlqge2hh8dy6hkkrjxkhluv2xpyfreqkmsesesyv6e, except I was working two Big Tech jobs at the same time. 😅 A double dose of unfulfilling work. nostr:note1vy0k6fez2ge29s6gf9wer8zgsyt64tkrshvu6uqyy67j88zral6st9lj8l

It’s freely available, but aggregating it could definitely be of value. Most users don’t know how to query event data across the network, let alone analyze it in a meaningful way. And sure, people might not be compensated from the get-go, but the ability to do so via micropayments is incredibly easy and could act as a draw for more use of an ad market that does support direct compensation. Small businesses all won’t have the ability to do all this themselves, and oftentimes they don’t feel great about throwing out ads on whatever platform they’re using, not knowing what’s being done with all the data or who it’s even going to reach. Paying a service to do the analytics and giving businesses the ability to purchase an ad targeted to those who are most likely to buy a specific product or service by buying data directly from them reduces ad costs for the business while also increasing conversion rates. The customer is also compensated for buying a product they actually want, and a relationship is built. Market forces and sentiment would drive adoption to ad markets that most effectively benefit both parties.
For real. 😂 And we’re all supposed to go buy index funds to protect our savings. Anything touching the stock market can be easily seized at the government’s will. Mandibles, then Bitcoin standard.
💯 I tried getting my friends to move over, but they got even more into options trading. They’ve been slowly starting to come around recently, though.
If anyone has had trouble redeeming their zaps from their Zeus zaplocker after connecting to their personal node, make sure to open a channel to “OLYMPUS by ZEUS” and get some inbound. It’s kind of an obvious solution, but someone out there might have been fumbling around with their channels to no avail, like me.

Ads also have potential for disruption with Nostr; they don’t necessarily have to stay “evil” and shadowy. Users can be compensated directly for opting in to have their data aggregated and sold. Companies can have much more effective targeted advertisements with the ability to directly buy existing customer data whenever needed and by streaming sats to those who view and show interest in an ad. In my view, a P2P ad market over Nostr will become incredibly powerful for monetization in due time.

Add some ground beef to it with Marscapone or Kefir cheese, and it’s incredible.
The biggest thing in my eyes is the fact that you can onboard people without needing another app or an account. Literally just send someone ecash over text and they have Bitcoin to spend.
GME and Roaring Kitty brought me to Bitcoin. That whole saga showed us how un-free and susceptible to manipulation the stock market is.
Wyoming might be one of the last safe havens in the US in the coming years.
