Zaps is an attack on LN decentralization. Should not have rolled it out wide before non-custodial solution is ready

Ran some analytics on zaps on nostr, it's quite terrible... ~95% of users have their lightning address set to a custodial wallet ~91% of all zaps...

Gradually, then Suddenly. I’m afraid we haven’t done enough to be ready for the suddenly part.

There is no good way to buy #Bitcoin in a No-KYC non-custodial manner. And few are working on solving this. Annoying as there’s no goto recommendation to a friend that asked me about buying Bitcoin. Its infuriating

If #Bitcoin hits $100k within the next 90 days. Money is the last thing on my mind. Whatever GTFO plan you got, its time to set it into motion then.

The biggest problem to Bitcoin is plebs getting rich too fast, but doesn’t get any less susceptible to $5 wrench attacks

Pay for GPT Plus and let it mine all my data? Or live like a luddite and be replaced by AI (at least AI enabled normies for now)? *We need a Poll function in Nostr.
