Welcome to FanFares

A premier Nostr client optimized for podcast monetization and curation.

Bitcoin Lightning is the breakthrough micropayment technology many have eagerly awaited for decades, and now it's finally here. At FanFares, we're harnessing this technology to liberate creators and their audiences from the influence of advertisers.

The internet has long been a catalyst for disintermediation of systems where middlemen have control and siphon off the majority of the value created. With Bitcoin Lightning and Nostr, we're taking another stride towards empowering peer-to-peer communication and the exchange of value.

We understand human nature, and it is a true fact that most people are basically lazy. We all tend to take the most convenient route wherever possible. While we all believe in compensating creators for their efforts, in a world accustomed to free access, many simply don't pay unless prompted.

On FanFares, the creators of a podcast can set a fee for accessing a podcast. Listeners get to enjoy every episode without being interrupted with ads. They get back those few minutes of their lives, which is worth the value of the sats to most of us because our time is even more scarce than bitcoin!
