I see that. But wallets are not part of what we call nostr. Though we can use wallets with it. That is to say, wallets and nostr work well together, but they are seperate things. Credit cards and Amazon work together, but http doesn't issue you a credit card. And that credit card can be used not only through http, but also at the local coffee shop. And unlike credit cards, crypto is hard to deal with, but that's not a nostr problem, it's a crypto (and government) problem. I understand instant this and that, but nostr apps do facilate all that, even payments by hooking into wallets. But the wallet itself is not an issue for nostr to solve. That all Said, some apps do handle a lot of that, like fountain. I hear fountain is a great way to get started in crypto.

I would argue that since NIP-60 wallets *are* a part of what we call nostr. A NIP-60 wallet lives on the relays, no different than a Kind1 post. A regular LN zap is a report that could be repurposed to be a report of any outside event. But a nutzap is different, it's fully native and can only be a report of a cashu transaction from a native wallet. Basically NIP-60 changes things, and it looks like NIP-60 and cashu have unstoppable momentum in nostr now.
