Yuri on Nostr: If all “proper” users are on paid relays, the spammers will have to also join ...
If all “proper” users are on paid relays, the spammers will have to also join paid relays and pay for them, which means they have to spend money to join (say, a yearly relays fee for each npub). And because paid relay operators will be quite vigilant with keeping their relays clean, it’ll be cost-prohibitive for spammers to do so.
