Happy Friday!!! and great news to start your day. Apple allowed us to keep the zap button on posts. This is a huge win for entire nostr community..! Current App will be on the App Store with 1 click zap on posts.
Expect an updated app this weekend, with details on its functionality. Stay tuned!

I wonder why not at
@Damus ?
Good question. We will release the details soon. All other iOS apps can follow the same if they want to.
This is good news, current has potential -- but curious how/why current zaps got through for them and #Damus couldn't?

Amazing news⚡️⚡️🔥🔥
Congrats!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
curious of the behind-the-scenes discussion, and what was the explanation that allowed you to keep them?
👀 WTF, wow! 💥
💜⚡️💜
Because it’s up to the whims of which ever reviewer you happen to get
Apple is finally making sense. Now, they should also maintain consistency and open the door for
@Damus,
@Openvibe, and others. Great news anyway.
Intriguing and very grateful. However , bizarre!
Continuing to build outside Apple's walled garden is the better approach - IMHO...
Great, current relay not working?
Thanks for your support. Apple has walled 1B+ users and we cannot get Bitcoin and nostr to billion people if we don’t have the presence there.
I saw this comment in stacker news and it stuck with me for a while
"I was never a big fan of Apple, however I do have a mobile that I used mainly due to convenience."
I think this summarizes lots of bitcoiners who use iPhone.
Well done, pragmatism wins!
Do you have to give them 30% of zaps ?
No. Not on zaps.
So no tax at all related to zaps ?
This is highly surprising. I honestly wonder why Apple changed their mind
We will release the details soon.
Thanks!
Your should have NIP from current App to use the Current Relay.
Did it have anything to do with this, a ritual sacrifice to the gods?
I don't think eBay or Paypal pays Apple 30% of money transferred either.
It's not a commercial relationship between app(company) and user but P2P. I don't see why they could charge it.
Yes. It is. But optional.
Clever. 👍🏼
That’s the whole reason why Damus had to remove note zaps, because Apple wanted the 30% tax on the zaps
Congrats! That's good news indeed. Hopefully these fickle gods will stay on our side from now on.
Thanks Jeff, No guarantees in life…! Haha..
it was for the nwc, it wasn't working because it was blocked?
compliance bros in disbelief
SATS are now in-app tokens and Apple is getting a cut
when someone buys SATS and zaps a note on the Lightning Digital Entertainment app, what is actually happening here?
That’s not exactly true. Sats purchases are real sats inside current wallet and can be transferred to any other Lightning wallet. We will release all the details next week
sounds good, hope Apple updates 3.1.1 soon so other iOS apps know how to proceed
if this actually holds, this change could be a BFD for every iOS app

Thats very unethical of Apple. They only allow zaps if they get paid.
บน iOS Current สามารถ Zap ได้แล้ว

View quoted note →It’s certainly distasteful.
Both IAP and subscription are optional.
For sure i think its great you offer this now. Apple is allowing zaps because this will help them make money it seems though. So their willing to let zaps slide.
With #GrapheneOS + #Obtanium, there are no gatekeepers which can prevent #Nostr developers from distributing native apps and updates to the plebs.
View quoted note →Apple allowed you to keep the zap button for now, give them a week or two and Apple will probably change their mind.
it was always a fucking negotiation
