Assume it was 1-click and 100% automated to deploy, run and update a Hub.

How much per month would you be willing to pay to run one? 

No direct economic incentive other than you know you're supporting Farcaster decentralization and you have your own copy of the network.

OK, if you're answer is you wouldn't run one.

I’m confused
Aren’t we supposed to get paid to run a hub?

I guess I’m getting this confused w miners who secure and decentralize the network
does running a hub benefit the protocol in any way or is it if you want to build a separate client?

You have a point here.. I'm sure communities will roll out incentives to run nodes going forward. From full to light.

My understanding is no, there is no crypto-economic incentive to run a Hub!
