Zaps have been stagnant for two years because we haven't gotten new waves of zappers. They're coming. They don't know that they're coming, because they don't know about zaps, but those that are coming DO participate in a value for value economy. Now, it might be a fiat economy, but they do participate in one. We'll teach them a better way forward.

If you truly value nostr’s future, why do you only send single-digit zaps?

I am just discovering the zapping process. I find it very interesting and I'm curious to see if more people will use it

Don't listen to this nonsense quoted, if you want to zap 1 sat, that's fine. 1 sat is as valuable as many zaps. We're not here to make anyone rich and zapping big amounts of zaps everytime isn't going make nostr more popular. It's just going to attract greedy people and will want bigger and bigger zaps. Zap the amount you want, not what greedy people want.

I get that. Corn is a bit passive aggressive, but he's not entirely wrong here. The issue we have is that the current wave of zappers have been bled dry.

Haha. That's funny. They're good folks too. We're all building and pressing forward together. Some different paths than others, but the end result is the same. Just toss a few GFYs around from time to time and a few 🫂 and several 🤙🏻 and we'll make it.

They are a headache to set up for most people. Put it in the "someday" pile.
