 Not a dev but I had a similar thought last night, imagining streaming sats to a driver while I’m taken to my destination much in the same way as, say, @fountain_app  streams sats to podcasters for content.  An idea whose time has come? 
 Exactly, and the corporate monopolies are excluded from their milking of the labours of others. 
 Interestingly this has labour law implications, particularly relevant since our Court of Appeal decided to insert their progressive agenda into Uber’s relationship with its drivers…

 With our proposed ‘Zapride’ Nostr based model, there is no corporation mistreating their employees or contractors, just a peer to peer exchange of value for value at an agreed price. 
 Goddammit man, you’re onto something…

 Have you seen any presentations about Nostrocket? I think that has much promise in general and specifically for the decentralised Nostr based equivalents of Airbnb, Uber and Amazon we were talking about. Here’s G Sovereignty talking about Nostrocket at Nostrasia. He also presented about it in Riga recently.

 No I haven’t - thanks for sending the link, I’m looking forward to watching this.  Makes me realise I’m just beginning to scratch the surface of this protocol. 
 Here’s the Riga pres:

My only problem with contributing to Nostrocket is a current complete inability to code. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Lucky there are plenty of talented devs working on Nostr.
