Appreciate the response. In practice it is a real problem, though. 99% of people are paying with their own cards. And often times your work is easily connected to you.

I hope you have more faith in nostr in the future. 

 We shall see.

I want it to work out but network effects are hard enough to overcome without the other native issues in Nostr. At worst I hope it remains an alternative for if X gets worse, forces KYC, etc.
