Sure, as a proof of concept perhaps. But if you want this to go massively viral on its own, or if you want to broadcast it to the public like a Super Bowl ad, it's gotta be real

Serious question: why shouldn't the general public be encouraged to use Venmo to move bitcoin around for day to day personal transactions? Most people already trust it with their financial data and custody over small amounts of their money. This seems like the fastest route toward getting people accustomed to "pricing in bitcoin."

Trying to understand UTXOs. Tell me if this analogy makes sense.
I have a 10 oz gold coin and a 5 oz gold coin. I owe you 12 oz.
So I melt my gold down and onto two coins, a 12 oz coin and a 3oz coin.
I give you the 12 oz coin and I put the 3 oz coin back in my wallet.

Are there any Nostr clients that implement good content aggregation algorithms?

It's no shock why the "microtransactions for news articles" model hasn't caught on. The system would be thwarted too easily. It's trivial to pirate and distribute the content once it's out on the web.
Even with subscriptions, most people can find ways around the paywall like archived sites. The only reason paywalls survive is that a subscription is not really a mutual exchange for the value of the content, but more of a patronage of the overall mission of the publication.
However, people might be more inclined to protect the value of their "purchase" of digital media if they could get a "return" on their "investment." Open a secondary market for content credits, and all of the sudden paying readers have an *incentive* for keeping the article's content private: It drives the price of their credit up.
Here's the vision: subscribers to a magazine are given unique credits to every article the publication issues. They can read it all normally. If they want to share an article, they can't just send a link. They also have to send their credit to the recipient so they can unlock the article.
Once they send the credit to that article, the original subscriber can't read it again. (Perhaps there are loanable credits that get returned to you after a time, or that you can recall on demand.)
If an article is going "viral" and a non-subscriber wants to read it, they will have the opportunity to bid for a credit on a digital exchange. Subscribers who have read the article can make quick buck selling their credits to the hot story. The magazine gets a cut every time a credit changes hands.
Now, what stops a magazine from issuing more credits? They very well might want to do that to a) increase access to their story and b) profit from the higher price of a specific article. However, doing so would undercut the "investment" of current subscribers or credit-holders.
But you don't necessarily want to cap the supply at a fixed number of credits, either, because then the market could be manipulated to suppress a story. Someone could buy up all the credits to reduce access or drive the price to an unreasonable level. So a condition would have to be stipulated in whatever smart contract these tokens were issued under that the publication reserves the right to issue more.
One way to legally structure this would be to stipulate that the magazine automatically mints a reserve of excess credits for every story that they can sell at will, but would usually leave locked up below a certain price. Maybe the target price of a story on the market would be $0.50-5.00. If the price goes above some desired target (stipulated in the contract), the excess supply is automatically unlocked and sold at the target price. This continues until the reserve supply is exhausted, at which point the price continues to float.
Once this threshold (or some other condition) has been met, the magazine would be able to start minting more credits at their own discretion, with a catch: A share of the profit from additional credits is disbursed to the wallets of current holders. A percentage of any proceeds from additional shares gets divided up and credited to the pool of current holders, so that even though the value of their asset is being diluted, they still get a bit of compensation for it.
This has an added benefit: holders of the credit, including speculators, have an incentive to hype up and promote the stories they hold credits off in order to make more of a buck off of them. The publication would love that!

In the burning bush, Moses asked God what his name was. God answered, "I AM that I AM." The name of God is Being itself.
By claiming the name "I AM," Jesus was declaring the divine title. He is God.
He was also affirming that he existed before Abraham, and indeed is eternally preexistent. He didn't say, "Before Abraham, I was." He said, "Before Abraham was, I AM."
