Been thinking similarly. Really think it would be the perfect place for crypto given its decentralised nature but the fediverse hates that. Also think we need to solve the portable identity problem first. We can solve the portable identity with did the same way ATProto solved it and blockchain are an excellent backend for that. Ideally we would use XMR as its objectively the best blockchain and objectively better than fiat.

You might be interested in trying out Nostr. I know it's more Bitcoin Lightning focused, which admittedly is not for everybody, but they've managed to make a lot of stuff work when it comes to paying one another.
In the technical sense, Nostr is really great.
People pay money to the ISP. Usually too much money. ISP should distribute monies to content providers and leave the users alone.
There is nothing stopping anyone from running ads and making deals with creators.
There is nothing stopping creators and hosters from accepting payments via Monero.
Also, we should stop trying to figure out how to make other people money.
Then don't post in the fedi.
Because you ain't doing that.
Damn. It took me 3 paragraphs to say that. Good job.
Lemmy loves free labor and freedom washed exploitation. Not sure you'll find a lot of support here.
