Bitcoin is money. The free market has monetized it. Unless you are referring to bitcoin-related content and not bitcoin itself? What is confusing about being able to give someone something of value for something you found valuable? The flaw is in thinking you have a right to someone else’s time/talents/resources. The legacy paywalled ad-supported model of the internet has warped our thinking about what is valuable and what isn’t. If you don’t find someone’s content or services valuable, then don’t give them anything of value for it. I encourage you to read Gigi (npub1der…xzpc) writings on a Value-Enabled Web (link below). The bullet points at the end sum it up some key concepts:
* It should be trivial for those who produce value to receive value.
* It should be trivial for those who cherish valuable content to send value to those who produced it.
* Allow content and metadata to replicate freely.
* Allow value to flow freely.
* Do not build walls around content or metadata.
* Make identity optional.
* Allow those who add value to participate in value flows.
* Make unethical behavior costly.
* Provide tools & services that add value and bring joy.
* Use money for monetization, not attention.14
* Sell services, not user data.
* Keep exit costs low.
* Build on sats, not IOUs.
