In the 1400s and 1500s, independent artists such as authors and painters often relied on the patronage system to finance their work. This system involved securing the support of a wealthy individual, usually a noble or a member of the clergy, who would provide financial backing for the artist in exchange for the artist's services.
In the future - the same dynamics might once again become the norm. Perhaps systems such as Patreon is foreshadowing what is to come. Wealthy bitcoiners could become the future patronage.
