I don't know if this guy is a lunatic or if he's simply a scam artist who makes a living out of the cryptocurrency business, trying to shove it down people's throats at all costs. What I do know is that promoting cryptocurrency wallets as the main reason for people to join Nostr is extremely imbecilic and shows a complete lack of sense. Well, unless this clown is out there selling cryptocurrency wallets... Não sei se este tipo é um lunático ou se é simplesmente um vigarista que vive do negócio das criptomoedas, tentando enfiá-las pela goela abaixo das pessoas, a todo o custo. O que eu sei é que promover carteiras de criptomoedas como a principal razão para as pessoas se juntarem ao Nostr é extremamente imbecil e mostra uma completa falta de senso. Bem, a não ser que este palhaço ande por aí a vender carteiras de criptomoedas... #Politics #Economy #Society #Philosophy #Slavery #Feudalism #Communism #Socialism #Fascism #Capitalism #Imperialism #Portugal #EuropeanUnion #EU #Corporations #USA #Twitter #TikTok #Fraud #Corruption #Bribery #Nostr #Nostriches #GrowNostr #Plebchain #Plebs #Pleb #Bitcoin #Lightning #Zap #Crypto #Brainwashing

@primal is sleekest wallet. Tiktokers, Time to get monetized from the first post. Don't need to hit any targets, and don't have to give any cuts from now. Your money is your money.

ALL THESE TIKTOK NEWBIES WITH THE FEELIN FOR THE FLAVOR, AND I'M FEELIN LIKE AN OG. 🤣 PV.
Took that screenshot a few days ago when I tried to set up. Others said it was new feature. Check my feed for original post.
I agree, for now it's only inbuilt wallet, and Zapping is like hitting like. Maybe in future we will have some better options or primal remove KYC.
The usual way things like this work is they make it convenient to sucker in users then use that in malicious ways. Amethyst does one touch zaps. Coracle.social does also. That's not a feature exclusive to Primal.

I tried to set this up with a Nym and kept getting declined due to information that I was providing. So ya, not using Primal....
#introductions In case youre wondering, this is the REAL @jack

Exactly. Convenience in exchange for your details. That's why you and I are Stike users. Cos it's easier. But it's possible to set up your own LN channel with Mutiny or Zeus. No KYC needed. Convenience often takes a hit but I'd prefer that to KYC. I'm in process of setting up those now. I'll try post about it so others can follow if they like.
Sure it will have a place. I'm trying to bring awareness to those who care that it comes at the cost of your privacy. If you're not on board no problem. My main point was to make it known to newb sign ups. As you say many won't care or even know to care but in this case it's about touch points. They'll care when/if they get burned.
Oh some people have also mentioned they have actually not been able to withdraw. It was in a post on my feed a few days ago.

I just installed primal. Thanks for the heads up!
I think Jack is alluding to the zap wallet functionality on Primal being top notch. I sent 1000 sats to my Primal wallet from my alby. And now it lets me zap anybody very easily. With Damus you might have troubles zapping individuals for their posts, profile sure, but not posts.
Just make up the details and use throwaway email? This ain't rocket science 😉 My real name is not Tigs Nostr btw. Also got given a LNadress of tigs@primal.net
Because their audience is their asset. They have to fence it in. Would you let your cows run free to join other farms?
Thanks @jack. We still need a much nicer onboarding UX, as well as experiences that are familiar to mainstream users. Working on it! 🫡 When all this is combined with the magic of zaps and the nostr app ecosystem, we will eventually onboard everyone. View quoted note →
This is possible until it isn't. Eventually they will make you verify your email. My prediction. It's an insidious game of incremental change. So slow you don't notice it. Like cooking a lobster. Feels nice and comforting til it's not anymore.
Yeah I did verify my email, but it's a dummy and just needs 6 chars. I agree with the incremental changes over time.. but I'll just withdraw my sats before they have to do extensive KYC. Plenty of LN wallets in the sea!
There's tradeoffs with every solution for holding your Bitcoin. Ultimately you want your own full node, with LN, and a few channels etc. But that's not for everyone or within their skill set. Horses for Coarses (spelling)

Baby steps for the newbies.
Hmm.. I've been able to zap people np. Only deposited 1000. But that would suck if you have hundreds of k in sats and withdrawing did take more extensive KYC.
You don't buy it all at once of course. But in the timespan that it takes for a KYC buy to "settle" you can accumulate a 100k buy. Slick UX is for newbs, once you're past that stage it's a pretty shallow reason imo
Ah ok.. Well I wont keep more than 1000 sats on it anyways but I do see your concern and I think you're in the right for sure. Maybe use Lnaddress.com and legend.lnbits.com ?
Who said anything about slick ui? I didn't. I said that bisq sucks. Old Java codebase, is terribly slow, uses mostly single threaded, many payment methods need kyc anyways, low trusted escrow/mediation. For 50 or 100 bucks, sure. But I have robosats for that. There is zero chance or reason I would use bisq for large sums of USD.
i don't know for sure but for some users ZAP works fine. am using mainly Amethyst and primal, as early stage its good but some features needed like video supporting etc..
I would vote for client support for personal AWS keys... (same for images). With this you just create an AWS account, run a script to set it up and then... BANG... YOUR media under YOUR control! =)) 🤔 ... Maybe I should tag @miljan and @jb55 and @Vitor Pamplona BTW... I could definitely help with the AWS setup part/script! =)))

Stay humble, stack zaps
Nostrudel.ninja is my favorite (using the Spring nostr browser on android). You can switch seamlessly between different sites. Check out emojito too for setting up custom emoji reactions (on compatible clients).

I'm ready for zaps 😉
Yes... But AFAIK images/video are not stored on the relay... What I heard is that media content storage is done by the client and each client has its own system/storage place, etc... BUT that been said, I may be completely wrong! =P
That's a f****** stupid thing to say. Primal doesn't have a video player on Android. Most importantly the feed on primal is over filtered/curated.
I want to do this. I VPN hop through my home net so it would be useful to have the server running/caching notes there through obsfucated connections to relays. I imagine the performance is much better.
Not exactly, because sats in the lightning network is off the main timechain, the layer 1 known as #Bitcoin , but they still have all KYC data once those sats/bitties are brought back #Onchain.
Are you looking for Non custodial lighting wallets Phoenix, Minibits, Zeus, (depends on you experience) , or a way to get NON KYC sats? Some people buy via KYC, and then put them through something like Wasabi or Samurai check out @BTC Sessions over on you tube for a plethora of #Bitcoin #Tutorials hot wallets, cold wallets, lightning wallets, nodes, even #NOSTR
I was mainly complaining about KYC for primal wallet creation. On my own little mission there! Not quote sure what came over just has the stench of govt ya know 🙄 using wallet of satoahi now which seems good!
