The tipping feature is a really nice aspect to Farcaster. 

I was skeptical of it at first, but creating a culture of backpatting with stakes greater than smashing a like button breeds much more thoughtful interactions. 

I wonder if, at scale, it could become a meaningful source of revenue for journalism to support reporters or future publications on this platform.

Porque no los dos? I use both the Patreon model and tips and it’s all super helpful as a small time creator

100%, the onchain stack is kind of nice. I get patron, tips, and mint $. You can also get likes with @tipn and recasts with @ampsfun really fun legos for journalist and creators

Definitely don't think tipping is sufficient -- just that it could be a helpful additional source of revenue
