That's awesome - but you need to bring down the cost of a like - its 5c currently. Everything needs to be at prices you don't care about paying such as 1c or under. There'll be a biting point where the money will flow much quicker and lessening the cost will increase overall spend and activity and flow of new users. (I sense you probably already know this.....)

we have discussed all of this, @3 suggested lower costs of likes etc for example, and considering all options as we go

Why do likes need to be cheap?
What has more actual value, a like or a comment?
Also, ask yourself, which flow leads to better content and community.
A posts twetch for free, then B and C answer. A likes B's answer. What happens next?

I love the dopamine hit of seeing an notification and an extra $0.04 hit my wallet!!
@3 a like needs to be more expensive than a post - encourages discussion
make it too cheap, and people will like and move on without comment
ok but 1c is still a major exponent
/pay @3 $0.01 How does this make you feel?
The scale should to be adjusted..
In general people are 5-20 more likely to hit the like button than reply, and 10-40 more likely to hit like than to branch. Generally speaking, if you look at general rations of posts from any platform.
Branching interesting info should cost more than a like. Makes people think twice about sharing valuable info vs non valuable info.
I would rather pay $0.01 per like and $0.05 to branch than the other way around.
I think there is a better balance in doing that
