sure. i get that. it's a new concept. over the past two years, we've sent nearly 21 bitcoin. that's about $2,100,000 in today's terms. we're just crazy people sending people money for their content. if someone puts out a good blog post or article and i like it? ill send them some money. if someone post a banger song that i enjoy? ill send them some bitcoin. if someone creates a meme that makes me laugh. ill send them some bitcoin.
it's better than seeing ads. it's better than rage algos. it's all about a value exchange. zapping someone for content feels so much better than using a like or a reaction. likes are hollow and reactions don't have much value either. they don't mean anything in the grand scheme of things. but if you don't like it or don't understand it, then that's fine too. nostr is all about choices. don't want to send or receive zaps, then you do not have to do it! 😉
