 influencers gain “customers” via ideas instead of building physical or digital products. there is a lower bar to entry here, as it takes very little work to become a thinkboi.

Another thing influencers can do is invest in companies and people who build stuff, this is a co-adaptive situation where the company gains the benefit of adoption via the influencers and the influencers get paid from the growth of said company.

I feel like this adds a lot of fakeness to certain online interactions, and I don’t want that to do things like that. I have very much enjoyed just talking with users directly, building stuff that they ask for, just being open and real. Maybe I can build a successful product this way, maybe thats too naive.

I’m not sure how i started or where im going with this rambling train of thought so ill end it here. #insomniathoughts 
 Girls love selling that ass on onlyfans or nostr for zaps  
 Insomnia thoughts are where some of the best magic occurs 
 Falando nisso… o tradutor do Damus está uma maravilha! 👌 

Perfeito! 
 Thank you! I was tired of external translations breaking all the time so i took matters in my own hands 😎 
 💯 
 I have a feeling i am going to have to do this with wallets in the future as well. One integration that has been very reliable though is @nostr.build @The Fishcake🐶🐾 🫡 
 Aqui uso alby, não tive dificuldades… associei ao Damus e a Bluewallet, cobria tudo quando a blue cambiava BTC para rede Lightning. Hj tenho dificuldades para adquirir BTC na Lightning! 
 Thank you for your kind words! 🐶🐾🫂💜 
 In awe of what you've been able to build since I joined #nostr.  Keep going and I'm doing my best to pitch in more. Especially as an aspiring janitor following nostr:nprofile1qyfhwumn8ghj7ur4wfcxcetsv9njuetn9uq3jamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwdhx7un59eek7cmfv9kz7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcqyqt48rwz5cnkn5y5g0cccd7tudv04ddmlxq3wd2z4f79lut3a4mug4d9zxg 's lead. 
 Why not try add an option for Damus users to buy sats via Apple like on primal app? The sats could be sent to user’s custodial/non-custodial LN wallet, and you take a small cut. While helping new users have a taste of the orange pill… and embed video tutorials or wizards to guide new users to setup from a list of recommended NWC/LN wallet. 
 I don’t want to get locked into a kyc wallet like primal, if i can do it without that happening then I’ll consider it. 
 Maybe just this once… perfect is the enemy of good? @jb55 
 keep building, you are important 
 It could be inevitable as nostr grows and attracts more of mainstream society, but that kind of  goes with free speech. It’s really the user’s responsibility to mute content that’s unhealthy or sketch and follow real, like-minded folk. Knives are really helpful for cooking, but can also be used for murder. Any kind of “social media”can be used destructively, but I would say it’s the lesser of two evils compared to the alternatives. 
 just stand there and look pretty

 
 If you have a clear idea of the users you are building for, that works. 
 Builders are rare, and they seldom need to talk. The results do the talking.

But great builders do talk, and that’s partly why they become great. 
 Deciding what market you use to drive you certainly is important and I like your reasoning @jb55 , it’s based and shows recognition of being able to see the true value in what you are creating instead of hyping static someone is trying to make for them selves from your creation. https://media.tenor.com/OCjqlb_VCEcAAAAC/snoopy-dance-st-patricks-day.gif
 
 Exit and build. My new mantra thanks to Bitcoin.  
 🔥🔥🔥 
 I rekon a lot of folks who’ve become influencers or customers of,  have become victims inside a virtue signaling matrix that seems hard to get out of for some .. one of the biggest key factors of being a good leader is being a good follower as well, so there’s that , #nostr is the only digital internet where you actually own your stuff (notes and so on now .. ,, you don’t have to say who you really are but maybe some fear that ?  I see it as a huge blessing ,, thanks for all you have done and continue to do! 
 Uma pergunta 🙋🏻‍♂️… isso mudaria essa o fato do Damos, diferente de outros clientes no iOS, não poder envias Zaps diretamente na nota? Falo isso pq faz muita diferença! 
 not sure if it translated right, but damus can zap notes:
