How do we support small creator accounts? Talking to a creator, she mentioned that, in her experience over the past 2 months, the average zap amount per user in Nostr is an order of magnitude lower ...

Interesting topic. Here’s what I can see:

- boosting users where the metric is determined by the same user, sounds VERY risky: “My living wage is 27M Bitcoin. I will never reach it bc there’s no 27M BTC, so I’ll always be boosted to the top”

- We already have mechanisms to Boost and Zap (as much and as many times as the user wants).

- other fiat social networks have a much bigger user base (orders of magnitude)

- I suspect that if she does a per-capita calculation instead of an absolute, numbers would be very different.

- It depends on the type of content she’s selling and her target audience (i.e. selling stuff to boomers who are not in Nostr)

- Maybe she wants a fundraiser instead?

It was per capita. In fact, it was a total amount per zapping user, which is much more revealing.
