Nostr and Zaps, problem solved.

Can you mind elaborating further how this would work? I am somewhat familiar with both of them.

Are you suggesting some sort of app store or web page to send money/bitcoin?

Nostr is a decentralized social protocol where people can send btc tips, called zaps, directly to creators.

I believe what you're saying is the benefit of Bitcoin (or other crypto) to get around gatekeepers.

I don't believe Patreon at this time supports any crypto. If they wanted they could open this up. Not sure if Apple would allow this (on an store app) without their 'slice' of the pie.
