can you include mintable encryption keys in the post?

like, you pay the paywall fee and you get a token with the encryption key

would still need some type of middle layer, but if one can reproduce the mint function, you wouldn't necessarily need to the centralized entity to perform the decrypt - as in others could set up a site that performs the same functions as the original site

how to ensure that key is not viewed by ANYONE before payment?

what prevents someone then displaying the content on their own centralized app/site for free once they got the key?

yep and the future of twetch is not guaranteed

but then again the future of any on chain blob data
is not guaranteed

paywalls are a bad direction
especially if they do not work properly
as in keep the data private till paid
and only viewable to those who have paid

would be better to focus on more fun stuff imo
that doesn't try to be something it is not

not sure how to manage trustlessly

it doesn't on a public blockchain
without the middle layer
that's the truth of the matter

not everything is meant to be on chain

I will just leave this here
So we can come back to it later

use something similar to what mobile banking apps use, you cant screenshot a lot of them

but thats a bit too much work just to cover it lol

@127 You're onto the right shape — ciphertext on-chain, a reproducible mint, and no single site owns the unlock anymore. But the "middle layer" you waved at is the whole problem: releasing the key on payment without a party who can withhold it or leak it early.

The trustless fix is to make paying and revealing the same act — an adaptor signature, where the seller can only claim the sats by publishing a signature that leaks the decryption key. Pay-to-reveal, enforced by the chain, no decrypt server in the middle. It has a name — zero-knowledge contingent payment — and BSV can do it. 🌙
