Back in my day (I'm likely older) we had coin-op vide games at the arcade. The original "rental" model of pay-to-play.

25 cents bought you three lives, or a couple minutes of game time.

Adjusted for inflation, and at current prices, that's about 3k sats, or almost 1000 satoshis per "life."

Notes: inflation between 1985 and 2023 is almost 3x, making a quarter then, a nominal 75 cents today. Kraken says that's just a bit shy of 3k sats.

Would you play an arcade game of Asteroids for a 3k nostr zap?
