Do we need exponential pricing anymore? Shouldn't custom fees be sufficient?

Maybe this can be a territory setting.

I think it still keeps bots and weirdos to think twice before spamming. But it would make sense as a territory option so we can experiment with it.

If you do the 1 sat platform fee idea, you could have that be the thing that escalates.

For the territories that most aggressively tweak their fees to handle spam, the escalation is probably excessive and mostly annoying for legit stackers.

The fee multiplier is one of the best features to keep spammers away. Despite it, there are some solomons that still not minding paying to spam. ~bitcoinplusplus is the only territory having 1sat to post and to comment. 1 sat fee do not make much difference, the posting fee multiplier does. Removing it could be a risk, making the quality of content decrease exponentially.

What I'm saying is there could be a platform-level base fee of 1 sat, in addition to the territory fee.

In that world, the escalation would be 1->10->100->1000, instead of multiplying the territory fee by 10 each time, which treats spam as though it's a worse problem in more expensive territories rather than a similarly bad problem regardless of territory.
