thank you! I will keep producing the best music I can make and pushing the ethos of bitcoin and value for value to who ever will listen!
thank you! You can stream sats on Fountain or send direct to my btc pay server > https://btcpay0.voltageapp.io/apps/2PnkCXYsZawttCQgqU2j569dYQw/pos
Will have my alby lightning address in all of my socials on youtube videos going forward too. https://getalby.com/ is a great way to tip in the browser :)
Thank you so much! I would have needed 25 streams to match that one off payment. V4V is many times superior for artists looking to monetise their work. I will be doing my best throughout next year to spread the word to anyone who'll listen
hey, yeah. Seems like it's a good place to let people know when I'm releasing music value for value style. Just put out a post today about 20 releases I'm doing leading up to Christmas > #102459
isn't advertising only as good as the quality of data linked to a real identity..? As people become more privacy conscious and careful with whom they share their data, won't this impact ad revenue models..? Seems the longterm solution to this is self hosting of the content you want to give away on a personal server and then use the V4V model where people can access it for free or stream sats as they stream the conent from your personal server. Guess if it was really popluar though, it might not handle the bandwidth. I don't know enough about this... What are your thoughts Jimmy..?
does it all come down to the platforms hosting the files having overheads and costs of servers, electricity, employees, brick and mortar etc. Would this change if there was a way to self host your own content on a personal server and a platform for people to serch it somehow and listen/ read/ view from your personal server to their device. That way, the content could truly be FREE (as in beer), because you're baring the costs involved with hosting..?
great article Gigi! As you know, I'm here for this and will be incorporating a value for value model in every music release I do going forward. I want to try and popularise the phrase 'streaming 2.0' which could encompass music and film as opposed to just 'podcasting 2.0'. The economics of music making and podcasting are very diferent though. I will be bringing attention to this when I release my next song as people might find it interesting. I'm still waiting for a way to bring my current fans into the V4V economy. There needs to be an easy onramp like Strike where people don't even know that they're using lightning but still have that instant lightning experience with no lower amount. People won't buy some sats on an exchange with KYC, open a lightning channel just to tip 10p for a song... Until the barrier to entry for the average person is lowered considerably, adaoption will be slow. Let me know your thoughts
Spotify will never do this because it will undermine their business model. They have huge fixed costs and those costs need to be covered by the money that should be going to artists... Broken system...
