In order for this to work, Nostr apps need the ability for users to send payments to (and receive from) relays.

I’m surprised no one has made this possible yet. AFAIK all money to and from relays is handled outside of clients today. primal (npub12vk…pugg) hodlbod (npub1jlr…ynqn) damus (npub18m7…q955) nos.social (npub1pu3…tfch)

📰🗣️ News Relays

Journalism can be remade from the ground up with Nostr.

Imagine a relay that only allows *writes* from their whitelist of correspondents.

You pay to get whitelisted to *read* from the relay.

Your subscription to read from the relay would be distributed to all of the contributor pubkeys on the relay.

These News Relays could exist for cities, countries, or even global.

A change would have to be made to clients though where we should be able to select which relays we specifically want to read from. Like “show me the Baltimore News relay feed”.
