 Sex work is a killer use case for bitcoin and nostr that we don't actively develop enough free and open-source software/hardware for.
If anyone is interested in joining our "bitcoin for sex workers" research/development group connecting devs/contributors/users, please DM me.

 It doesn't need to be physical sex work. It could be online work. It's much safer this way for the workers. Big adult online platforms are taking huge cuts from these workers and I have a great feeling nostr can create market for these workers to earn and keep 100% off all the profit they make.  
 I guess integrating direct LN payments into some kind of webcam platform would provide models with a privacy-preserving way to get tips without the platform retaining a huge cut. However, as platform owner/developer you might want to verify that all models/streamers are of legal age without compromising their privacy.... I don't know, maybe with some kind of zk-proof system? Just thinking out loud 
 Was the first vertical I thought of when using LN.  Remove the rent seeking middle man and allow direct value 4 value exchange in the hardest money possible.  Sex Workers have always led in technology adoption throughout time.
