You’re missing my point. What solutions do you see for increasing economic activity on Nostr? Nothing is free. Either users will pay, or advertisers and VCs will pay, or things will shut down eventually.
yes any deep pocket VC can launch closed centralized APP on nostr give carrot to signup users on board. something like ZDB - do fiat ramping like paypal - nobody stop it - it doesnot promote bitcoin ecomony
Promoting the growth of bitcoin economies is good. How do you achieve that when people who have bitcoin would rather spend fiat so they can save their bitcoin?
here’s an idea, create simple value transfer (like zaps), and an escrow functionality which would enable individuals to operate as reputation based escrow agents, to facilitate things like shipping, returns, and release of funds. make nostr a decentralized free market.
