Nostr already has zaps, invoices, etc. and a host of awesome social media features, and a UX that keeps getting better. We primarily just need more people to hop over, and that will happen over time, especially as UX gets easier and higher quality and as we introduce friends to the platform.

What nostr might need in addition to that is a patreon- or onlyfans- or subscribestar-like locked content note that you pay sats to access, to help monetize things and drive efficient pricing and such. Posters would not need to put everything behind a paywall, and each individual could tailor a strategy to their unique community.

Perhaps we could also incorporate an advertisement NIP that allows users to turn on or off ads, ads that creators would choose to incorporate into their notes. These would be completely optional and individually selected, rather than chosen by a spy corporation trying to pry on us. This might or might not be the best idea. 

 I agree. More tools for creators to monetize is a good thing. It gives options, and certain approaches probably work better for certain types of content. It will be interesting to see when and how advertising finds its way into Nostr.  

 People don't want to pay creators. Get it thru your heads.
