What if we had an easy way for listeners to “throw bits”, “gift subs”, or “send super chats” to the shows they are listing to?
This is what podcasting 2.0 tries to do. It’s one of the few good uses for Bitcoin that I have found.
You can stream small pieces of bitcoin to the show per min (67 SATS/min ~ $0.0180 USD = over 60 mins is 4020 SATS ~ $1.07 USD) or send a boost that attaches a message to an amount of you choosing allowing to you give feedback almost like sending chat messages to a streamer on Twitch/Youtube.
The podcaster can see a timestamp and what episode you were listening to at the time so they know the context. There’s a lot more to Podcasting 2.0 than that but here’s links for more info.
