This is why social platforms pay creators so much in the first place. Elon recently posted that X is going to start to pay creators more than YouTube. Wild. They all know it drives users to the platforms. The difference is they’re doing it to sell advertising, and Nostr isn’t an ad-based network. Nostr has different incentives, but that doesn’t mean having active artists/creators won’t drive user growth here too.

I think that diVine is going to flip the script on a lot of this, meaning bringing some of the legacy creative process to Nostr.
