The issue is not necessarily the people already using nostr, although there are some here who openly say they won’t spend their bitcoin due to tax implications. But for me the bigger issue/hurdle is the people that an established artist/creator would want to onboard to nostr vs. Patreon. Most people don’t have bitcoin and even fewer are those who have it and will spend it. An artist trying to bring in their existing audience is going to have no way to monetize if they are first forced to orange pill and teach a bunch of people how to use bitcoin. And most artists can’t afford the time that would require.
