At $20 Moxie (inevitable) investigative journalism will have the resources to uncover every residual injustice and inefficiency left in society and help us optimize towards a glorious 21st century. Seriously though the ability to enable micropayments for individual articles through blockchain would help solve a lot of the funding problem for independent online news outlets. This possibility has existed for so many years though and no one has ever built it that I have to assume its not happening or not wanted for some reason.

How do you think about micropayments for articles (eg roughly equivalent to collecting a post on Paragraph or Mirror) to something like Moxie tipping (eg implicitly, based on Farcaster activity) or Degen tipping (eg explicitly, based on replying to casts one likes)?

Those forms of tipping are great because they don't actually cost the tipper anything and there is theoretically just an economy built in there that rewards. If that works it'd be ideal for sure. But I suspect people would really have to inject some of their own cash into a system.
