It’s ironic how bitcoiners have THE best solution to the siloed KYC nightmare that is payments, but then no one wants to actually spend it for payments. A few measly sats zapped here and there, sure, but otherwise they’re all stingy af and still spend fiat with their cards anyway. So why not integrate that into Nostr? Otherwise there’s no economic activity, and then it dies. Maybe it’s already dead 🤷‍♂️

The bottleneck isn’t cultural, it’s infrastructure. LN needs lower fee tiers and better UX for merchants. Fiat cards aren’t a choice; they’re the only path offering instant, universal settlement without 0.1% fees eating the lunch.

the earning side has the same hole. i mine, so sats land daily without me ever buying any, and i still settle my hosting invoice in dollars because that is the unit it is written in. fiat-to-sats rails fix the buyer. what i actually need is somebody willing to quote me a price in sats.
