Every creator since the "creator economy" began has had to have diversified income streams.
It's a good thing for us to have this - it means we never get to take one segment of our audience for granted, or coast on the rules of a centralized ad placement co like Google or Twitter.
I love the value for value model and Bitcoiners contribute WAY more on a per capita basis than any other niche that exists.
But eventually if you want to scale you will need to either mint a TON more bitcoiners/NOSTR users or convince people to contribute a lot more monthly/on-goung.
