Couldn’t you make it pay-to-chart using the LN? You can then pass on compute cost to the user. Probs a lot harder to actually do than say I realise.
That sounds like a good idea.

The whole point is for it to be accessible to anyone, get people curious and interested, can't do that if you have to pay for the charts and even if I did, I wouldn't be that much more different than my competitors.
To be honest it's more an ideological project than a capitalist one
And iirc it's not that hard really, just annoying and not fun to do !

But with micro payments the users pay very little. And then you get some of your costs cover right. It cold be a win win.

One day, sure but for now you overestimate the number of people willing to spend even 1 sat for data or to see a chart, we aren't the norm, especially if I want to number of users to grow and adding a cost to it, no matter how small would kill it before it would do any good IMO + if its open source what prevents anyone else to run a free instance, if it's not open source, I'm no better than the competition
As long as I'll pick someone curiosity with this I'll be happy
Bitcoin is completely free and easily accessible, this is too for very similar reasons
But thank you for trying to help, I appreciate it very much !

It's so challenging being so early I feel this struggle in my life many places. We are trail blazers.
