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 compared with other networks for the same content. So, even if she becomes a big account, it still wouldn't be good for her to stay in Nostr. I have heard similar anecdotes from others.

But what worries me the most is that the expected revenue calculations for creators always assumes a large account. Which not everyone will achieve.

We shouldnt be a network where only large accounts can collect enough revenue to survive.

So, how do we help small creators find a path to a living wave in Nostr?

Nostr is still a infant baby give it time. This might be the top 3 social network. Give it some TIME ⏰⌚ keep working.

Nostr Clients suggestions should start at 1K sats. Clients in POST, could allow Creators a "teaser/full" structure, allowing them to set an unlock price. SO... This is a 50min video of my trip to explore the Emerald industry in Colombia. It's free, but you can zap me. Suggested zap is 1000sats OR...

Minimum value threshold for zaps? Show in the user's app the value of each zap in their fiat currency (like Youtube super chats)?

Caution: very long text First off, do not alienate anyone comin in, give them a fair chance. My first impression on here was like, meh. I was a total stranger, hadn't invited big-account peers from the bird app, thinking to test the waters first but it was like the door slammed shut on my face, lik...

I think it's better for the effort. I even tried to advertise in posts and I only got spam complaints 😁 A sats lottery is cool, there are already bots here that do that. The more the person interacts and helps, the more he gets zaps. There are ways to win "free zaps", as I taught my followers. Bu...

We could make it by cent. The least zap costing 1cent. Ofcourse 1 cent in sats. I think that would do.

averages don’t work with v4v I only need to sell 500 t shirts at a 5 dollar profit to make what I would off one million plays on Spotify

A suggestion: Each profile to be able to create a "store" for digital content (texts, drawings, diy projects...). The creator upload the files to the platform and define the price in Sats. The consumer makes a zap for the specified price and get authorized to download the file.

One word: Paywalls
Unicorn㊙Whisperer · 156w
you have a valid point but imho, putting a price tag on contents is a bit uhmmm maybe not for me. I create contents according to my free time, free will, emotions, mindfck, etc. there will be times I may not be on here to provide contents for so-called "fans" so the daily living wage may not be it f...

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 ...

An important question! Small creative accounts definitely deserve more support. Maybe we could implement some sort of sponsorship program or 'discovery feature' that highlights smaller accounts? Or even a sort of matching feature where larger accounts can support smaller ones? Every beginning is tou...

I guess we are just a different bunch, until others show up

This seems like a lost cause if I'm going to be honest, bitcoin is still too speculative in pricing, nostr is still too small, and hodlers with bitcoin have tighter purse strings than goblins with gold. I think what we need are more goods and services priced in bitcoin to support a native economy, ...

This is a good question nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z that pertains to me as I would be classified as smaller creator and would REALLY like to make automotive stuff into something I can live off of and get out of my part-time soulless 9-5 grind that I'm curre...

Patreon solved but it relays mostly on closed content. Something along those lines could work. Like special perks for higher amounts of support. Literally patronage. Otherwise, they will always try to go massive cause they think it's the only way to make decent money. And that sure sucks. Main...

Nobody is entitled to an income from content creation and nostr is still tiny. With scale will come audience. You are talking about nostr content creators, not creators in general as those also still lack a lot of discoverability on nostr. But ... nostr is great for zapping or ... will be. For the...

As an author, I would appreciate the ability to create a paywall within Nostr/Amethyst to sell my digital products. I can set up a place to host them, but I need a pay wall to automate the sales process so it's not manual.
