Hey @Svetski nice to see you on SN. Just wanted to say I am a fan of your work.
How do you think we can get more writers/creators like yourself to participate in v4v platforms like SN, fountain, nostr etc?

MM..I'm not very bullish on V4V. It's not a commercial model that really scales. That's why Busking is not how the music industry evolved. It's a great way to make some pocket money and maybe hone your craft or get discovered, but for real creators to make their way over to Nostr, etc - there needs to be ways in which they can really generate money.
Think of Nostr as a country. America attracted the best talent from around the world, beacuse it was the "land of opporutnity". The story of "one man" striking oil or gold is what brought millions more.
Nostr has potential, but it's not a "land of opportunity" yet where anyone go seriously rich or wealthy as a creator. IG, TikTok and those places have that.
We need to find out own version.

Do you think a hybrid of a v4v and traditional monetization of attention model via ads could work?
For instance, SN has a rewards pool that gets distributed to users daily based on the "value" they create on the site. I think SN could sell promoted posts, boosted posts etc to fund the rewards pool via commercial enterprises that want to promote their products and services but still maintain the v4v element that allows users to zap back and forth.

Maybe. It needs to be attempted and the market will decide. I've not seen any really successful implemenatations yet.
