why do street performers not use linktree? seems like the perfect demographic to have payments links, socials, etc. 

i usually see just one venmo qr code or a bunch of qr codes that fight for attention

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

My guess is that 

- linktree is mostly used where users only have one link they can display (on their profile); no link scarcity on the streets
- it may be unclear to average people that it can lead to a social payment app
- people who tip are looking for their app to move on
- more qr codes = more scan targets

Yep. Scan and tip is faster and avoids decision fatigue

hmm isnt it the same decision fatigue as seeing qr codes for both venmo and cashapp on their guitar case?

agree venmo + cashapp covers +90% of people

but i also want to follow the person(s) on instagram! and listen to them on spotify. those are either forgotten or just multiple qr code scans

maybe im in the minority and most people don’t care about that stuff, just feels like a missed opportunity for the performers

Not at all!

I would argue Venmo + Cashapp covers +90% of people who would tip via phone. Picking between two duopolies hardly warrants any decision fatigue imo.

In my case, I’ll use Venmo reluctantly  whereas Cashapp I’d be more eager to use since I don’t have to think about it appearing on a feed.

Most people use one or the other. I see Venmo I go Venmo. I’m not like which of my payment apps have more of a balance (but I do do that with crypto wallets ha!)


Also i just said do do 💩
