If Taylor Swift posted on Zora instead of Instagram, millions of fans would definitely mint her posts

Sure but she could monetize in many different ways without using blockchains at all

How many Taylor Swifts are there out there? :)

but the blockchain isn't what makes it different really

it's the mechanism of micropayments (and collecting)

Collecting doesn’t hold up when most people never look back at or have any use for the things they’ve collected

Wallets have become junk drawers and that’s largely because people just mint a bunch of stuff and forget about it because they don’t really value it that highly since they only paid 30 cents for it

1. Most people never look back at bookmarks, those are also a junk drawer (unfortunately)

2. I completely agree that minting is great for creators (they’re getting paid!), I just don’t think the reason why people should mint (collect) has been cracked and any minting behavior right now is outlier data due to a) early adopter generosity and b) speculation

i think you are right in most cases as of now

but doesn't mean it's not "valuable" to the person

when you have abundance, you won't be checking things everyday

just like bookmarking

regardless this is a new way for creators to get paid and for people to own a piece of something, there is def something there imo
