Guy Swann has provided an audio version of my long-form article about Nostr. It reminded me that he was another example of someone I paid for non-tipping things using Nostr as the payment discovery mechanism. Guy performed the audio editing for the individual files of my "Broken Money" youtube video. And I paid him for it not by having to ask for his invoice or anything, but rather just by looking him up on Nostr and paying him. Venmo-like payment discovery in an open-source and globally-interoperable way is a big deal in the long run.

💯 The identity layer that #nostr is adding to the stack allows payment discovery, a much needed feature that was missing in #bitcoin wallets.
