could we have any changes on prices?I'm not sure how much would be the best, at least giving a like should cost less than 5 cent.with 5 cents you can buy this in our city:1egg or 2 bread or 1 small juice/water/milk bottle or candies.

This is a fundamental problem with Twetch, it’s too expensive to fully utilise for many people around the world. Even those who’s currency has similar parity to the US$ find it too expensive to engage Twetch as a heavy user.

It's unfortunate and ridiculous that giving a like is the equivalent cost of an egg or small juice etc in your country. The Twetch team need to reconsider their pricing structure. I believe engagement on Twetch is disappointingly low for this very reason.

Short of donations, how does someone go about acquiring such a small amount of BSV? I can’t even get $10 worth because everyone requires a larger minimum transaction.

The exchanges have tended to add to this problem. You make a good point and this would obviously be a good opportunity for someone who can provide a service capable of smaller amounts.

Absolutely. Can you imagine normies leaving Twitter where likes are free to pay 5c/like on Twetch? Yes, there are hidden costs to 'free' but normies on the whole couldn't give a toss about that. If Twetch doesn't respond to the market someone else will.

I don’t mind the pricing. I do think it should cost more to write an original post than to branch someone. Idk if the devs have acknowledged this but their pricing greatly affects the incentive structure for interaction. Cheaper to spam than to like posts?

When we lowered likes from 10¢ to 5¢ there were the same number of likes but people just made less money

Is that in absolute or relative terms do you know?
