It will never be 0 fees, but it should be as low as someone's perception of risk/reward. Or maybe other factors, I can think of "I lend you with 0 interest but you market my name" or something like, I lend you money with no fee if those money improve the area where I live, or if you give me back services or other things that can be more valuable then some more money.

Exactly. I’d want to receive SOMETHING of value for providing someone the convenience of using my money 🤔

Good point, but a point I didn’t elaborate on more is that while you’re building, you are also building your own skill stack. This may not pay off on the first attempt, but keep building and it wi...

Absolutely true. I just hope people will build following their heart and communities feedback in order to work in things that bring value to themself and others.

Everybody have hobbies which goal is to bring joy to themself doing something you like but you are maybe not so good at and then work which in opposite, its main goal is giving value to others doing something you probably don't like as much but you are particulary good at.

I'm just a afraid people misunderstood v4v and its proposition because they think that this is a way to live just off their "hobbies".

I think that putting a price is different than putting value. The beautiful thing about thinking in satoshis is that we are giving away something that is more than money but is also value, energy and time.

Regarding your position in tipping posts, I understand that an artist is less interested in other artists products because that's the kind of value you give to yourself so you don't need to get it from someone else.

I like to tip posts I personally like because of the feedback I give back to the person, hoping that it incentivize him to do more of that work.

“If you build it they will come”

I like it but it could be delusional for some people. We cannot pretend that everything we built will ever get attention because of the market we are in.

If they do not come, you could just be in the wrong place or trying to giving away something that do not get attention.

So build something other people value as much as you.
