Under-discussed reason why artists need the V4V/Bitcoin/Nostr trifecta to protect their earnings from inflation and centralized social media problems:

Many of them are forced to spend way more of their time doing gigs & shows than they want to.

Sure live shows are tons of fun for lots of musicians, and for many that is the CORE of their music-production experience.

But there are others who would rather spend more of their time at home, in their own space, and CREATING in a relaxed environment, rather than constantly hustling on the road out of necessity as a means to opening up said free time.

Once they've fully embraced sound money & sound protocols, all artists of different social healthbars will be able to create the perfect art-creating environment for themselves, without being forced into a direction that doesn't resonate with their energy.

All of the above is relevant to other artists, too. Painters and other physical medium creators may just have to substitute "live shows" with other forms of going out and selling their art, which is often not their favorite thing to do (at least not as often as they have to).

Also, many artists of ALL kinds would love to escape the social media platform prison, and are really only on there for marketing purposes (which ultimately comes back to the same root problem of needing to hustle for money more than they truly want to).
