Since I was invoked I’ll toss in my 2 sats 😉 y’all are both right. Most people will not gain enough zaps to make an income equivalent yet (like you can on TikTok) so trying to sell people on Nostr based on zaps alone is futile. HOWEVER people are really interested in being able to easily exchange value for value on social media, and it’s attractive to people that Nostr has zero barriers to entry to get monetized (unlike on TikTok where you have to have a thousand followers to start a shop and 10k followers to get paid per thousand views).

So yes, zaps are nifty and fun and certainly part of the overall Nostr value-add, and no, they aren’t the main reason people stay here. People stay here for the freedom and the community.

The two things in my mind that we need to work on to continue to attract users is: searchability and shareability. When content is easy to find and easy to share, it can go mega viral. Wherever there is viral potential, people will go there. That’s how TikTok became a billion user platform.
