Apps on bsv are the best kept secret in consumer internet.
Better to keep letting them stay under the radar while they dial in and gain strength shielded from big competition, or time to solve onboarding and blow the doors off?

I tend to favor niche building too. I do think there is a next step to move into the next niche of non-bsv people (maybe long tail creators, or libertarians, or something) which might require reduced onboard friction but not total solution for the masses.
Altruism is not creepy.
Appeals to altruism are almost always creepy.
/pay @60 $50 for putting together this awesome preview video to turn YouTube into an acquisition channel for Streamanity.
The game done changed.
If you haven't watched this interview with @4 you should! It's the best interview you can find with the Twetch co-creator. It's wild, honest, fun, interesting, and optimistic.
Just juiced up the rev share so you get 40 cents for everyone who watches via your link.
Do you hate money?
Very cool to see @255 sharing things so openly with his company as they build.

So we'd need 400 YouTube views for every @14352 view on Numpty.
Our avg Streamanity vid has 50 views. Would need 10x our YT avg of 2k to match.
Oh, and channel still 250 subs short of being allowed to monetize. It's been a year of vids! Plus ads. Yuck.
We've been conditioned to seek meaningless "likes" and stats.
It's time to realize the power of nicheing down.
100 $2 views better audience and value than 1,000 free views.
It's clear from the Numpty Bunch that there's a massive disconnect between the value created by content creators and the revenue they generate on mainstream online platforms.
YouTube is like a gigantic dumpster trying to be a restaurant.
No offense taken!
Onboarding new normies is THE problem.
Different markets. I suspect someone trying to build niche audience could charge significantly more than this. Some substack newsletters are $100/month.
But we're optimizing for fun! 50 paid viewers are more fun than 1,000 free.
Hey @4 my son wants to know Kermit the Frog's religion.
We thought you might shed light.
Hey wow thanks!
It's been 10 years and they're still allowed though, no?
No such thing as "here's a law here's what it means to be in compliance"
Reality is "here's a bunch of words. If we determine politically beneficial to claim you're in/out of compliance, we will"
Understand this reality and win.
Even if so, this does not answer tactical question: comply first then build, or build first and then either a) comply or b) make regs comply with what you already built.
Build first wins historically. And for predictable systemic reasons.
Study public choice theory. As well as the history of law and legislation.
"We live in a democracy" is most certainly not an argument for why seeking government approval is a good strategy.
Well go ahead and lobby first while companies (like all early internet biz, Uber, etc) just build and wait for gov to catch up.
Compliance is also a myth, because the rule of law is a myth.
What matters are incentives. If political actors can win by stopping you they will. If win by allowing they will.
Get popular w/out threat to them and they'll okay it.
Oh cool! So when they redeem it does it auto setup a wallet, or do they still need to do that?
New tech moves way too fast for law. Grow first, then ensure compliance (or force law to change).
Asking gov to regulate you into permission as first step is recipe for terrible slow tech purgatory.
Click, paste, BSV wallet with enough $ to get started, instant sign-in to all the SV apps.
This is how I want to onboard my normie friends!
How easy is it to spin up a wallet, put some BSV in it, get the seed phrase in a way where you can't see it, and then remove your own access?
Then could send to someone, "Click this link and enter the attached phrase" and bam they have prefunded wallet.
