What is a lightning prism?
Basically, it's a way of splitting payments or turning one payment into many. A prism could be identified by something like a note (this is what @Boardwalk) is doing.
However, there are other ways to implement prisms. A prism could be represented by an LNURL or even a BOLT 12 offer. Whenever, say, an offer is paid, the full amount paid gets split and sent out to each member of the prism based on each member's relative split.

EVERY note you create with a *dollar sign*boost will be turned into a prism.
No need to add $prism.
Also, remember if you want to limit your prism you can include a list by adding #listr where 'listr' is the name of your list. The #listr has to come immediately after *dollar sign*boost for it to be considered.

So, typing $boost #following will create a prism only with the npubs in my following list
