I don't know if on-chain zaps are the way, but I know that Nostr was on fire today with conversations on both sides. I enjoyed the engagement. Keep building... controversial things.

Does what I build have to abide by the Geneva convention or can I go ham?
Nobody has sent me an on-chain zap on Nostr yet.
(But we used to do them all the time back it the day…)
Onchain zaps are bad idea. All txn are deterministic with no privacy, making a huge target of yourself and dust attack candidate!
I've got a use case

But love watching the btc on or off chain zap conversation, important points all around 🙏 🍿😎
Innovation needs a little bit of friction :)
me neither. ill be on-board with this project for a 100K zap. :D
Now you have: 

Ditto
Ditto
Your content. Your vibe. Your rules.
Mr. Moneybags over here.
It does. Eventually we'll use this to settle on something amazing.
100% agree. I'm sure we can fix this over time. Perhaps silent payments for one.
See, Nostr isn’t dying after all.
There’s just a whole lot of cooks in the kitchen and eventually there’s gonna be an argument over who’s got the best recipe for something or other.
Then everybody joins in and it turns into a cafeteria fight.
Go ham.
Stuffs about to get really weird and we may need a gas mask by the end of this


Seems like such a waste of time but...what else is going on so 😅
Gas cans more likely.
Yet you have a lightning address in your npub
Silent payment only solves address reuse plus one needs a separate server to scan receive/spent key
Silent payment does not solve deterministic links onchain, user will still combine those utxos that is sent to a silent payment address, only stonewall brakes those links! And no one knows what stonewall is.
Yeah, what’s cool about it, is that every npub has its own on-chain bitcoin wallet. This is really cool for use cases other than zaps.
Nostr key management can be upgraded with so many innovations Bitcoin already uses, 2 of 3 key auth and hardware management. The @Bitkey experience comes to mind, one key has limited permissions while 2 of 3 can change those permissions or authorize important stuff.
Yes I like both btc and xmr.
Is that a problem?
I believe you
