Fountain is sick I actually am about to set up a friend on all value 4 value services when I first heard the concept I really liked it. Being in the role your in now if i may ask how has your perception changed on everything compared to before fountain was formed are you more eye level with other builders or not much has changed? What is the best lesson that you have learned on your journey. Favorite btc book, and favorite none btc book that has helped you alot?
Thanks for the kind words! 🙏
The biggest change in perception for me was around where the value of Podcasting 2.0 payments would sit. I originally thought all the value would sit with the podcasters because they are the ones getting paid + receiving feedback / questions / engagement from their audience. But actually there is incredible value to the listener as well because it gives you the feeling as you're listening that you can reach out to the host at any moment and connect with them + you know they'll probably read the message because there's a payment attached to it (if you send enough).
Best lesson - probably just to keep a dialogue with early users and listen to them and build what they want. Even though we could be getting to it a lot faster - we are slowly addressing all the issues / features people are requesting (CarPlay, AutoQueue, Performance, Skip Silences, LiveItem etc.)
