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.

this is a big part of the reason it’s called “microsub” 😏

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)?

i moderated a panel on investigative journalism a few years ago and elizabeth nolan brown from reason said something pretty poignant she writes amazingly well researched, thoughtful, impactful pieces on the war against sex workers, they take a looooong time when she was writing for one of the feminist outlets in 2014 they could churn out culture war bait on why a car commercial was racist or whatever with relatively low cycle time, often the outlet didn't believe what they were publishing was true but was doing it for the clicks i think it's a question of whether the individual journalist or the newsroom model will work best, i'd love to see someone take a run at an investigative journalism DAO

Before this year it was never actually easy to set up a system where readers pay around $0.25 to access an article, easily and quickly, without giving out a credit card number. Now with Base, Paragraph, etc that is finally possible. I think someone will figure it out and get it right, and it will unlock a new revenue stream for journalists willing to try it. 420 $degen
