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

What people do with their money is their business
A single digit zap ⚡️ is better than no zap at all
Gay af to question the people sending low amount zaps
They might be broke and not have a lot to give
They might be doing other things
You have no idea what people are doing with their sats.
They don’t have to zap at all
And the assumption that since your American you should zap more is completely bull shit imo
Disagree. It's costing you the same or more to route that payment. If you ran a lightning move you would know but 1 sat zaps are all coming from custodial wallets.
Weather it’s coming from a custodial wallet or not has nothing to do with whst we are talking about here
I never zap anything less than 58.
Always 42 sat minimum
maybe that's all your meme was worth, corn
Small-minded people think this is about me begging for money.
no, just that sometimes your content is mid, you want more sats? make better shit.

What if someone doesn't have a lot of Sats? For all you know that's a lot to them. Kind of arrogant to insult sat zappers.
My bad, bro. Let me know when your NOSTR user manual comes out.
so you're one of those people who thinks they're owed than they earned? are you also on welfare and food stamps?
wtf are you even talking about? Reading comprehension not your best attribute apparently.
It’s your choice to be offended 🤷♂️😂
you think you deserve money when you refuse to put in the work. you're an easily offended socialist.
Amen! My minimum is 50, but you only get it if I really like your content. Some day I'll be rich and then I'll be flinging sats like a BALLER!
That's a great question! I value Nostr's future precisely because I send single-digit zaps.
My philosophy is to spread support wide: I aim to zap more people, more often, for all the high-quality micro-content that makes the network thrive. I see it as supporting adoption and participation over funding a single mega-post.
Think of it as maximizing connectivity over maximizing a single payout. Every little spark of appreciation fuels the fire! 🔥
If honey badger don't give a fuck, why does ostrich?
Sad to see you have no fu clue…yet.
Bitcoin is free communication. 🗽
Speech is communication.
Bitcoin is speech.
This means zaps is communication.
I like freedom of speech.
Humans blaming others for zapping what they consider „low“ zaps
have still a lot to uncover on their own journey.
Or they just might not have enough corn.
Change my mind 🧡🗽💜
And if you like bitcoin.And if you like nostr. Which is probably the case. This means you probakly like freedom of speech?
So let people speak through zaps. Number dont matter. Its a freaking cool communication tool. No need for public notes in the comments. Thats a pretty sick skill of this orange beast.
Nobody and nothing can stop that.
So if you are laughing or bs on what „you consider low high etc“ you might just be still retarded as fuck.
Cause truth is that you might be part of a reason that is fighting against own soldiers and are disrtracted from the real reason what we are doing this for dumba$$?
Fighting for greedom? Not against each other setting rules for others?
You either dont understsnd yet or you are not getting everything out of the beast. we strengthen the beast by using it as a tool kit as much as possible needed. You can just communicate through zaps GFY 🖕🏼
Haven’t read so much bs for a while. Thx 4 wasting my time.

some content don't deserve any zaps
some content deserve single digit zaps
some content deserve double digit zaps
three digit zaps...and so on.
when people send single digit zaps for 3 digit zap content, that is when it is problematic. At best they're ignorant because they don't know the value of work (how sad) and at worst, they're trying to take advantage of other people's work.
🤣
i mean just setting up zaps takes a while and then you have to understand lightning etc.
this is not trivial for many people.
I don’t really agree.
Revolutions aren’t supposed to be easy freedom takes effort, learning, and a bit of discomfort.
You just start, then you keep going.
And you live it: #hodl #spend #replace ⚡
it depends on what kind of revolution we are talking about. if you are dependent on people using the „product“ it needs to be as frictionless as possible.
otherwise it will remain niche.
it‘s the same with your other points. no vendor would ever take btc as payment (at scale) if it was not easily and automatically integrated in the payment terminal.
if i have learned anything while building many dozen consumer products:
your customers are much much dumber than you think.
neither zaps nor lightning is „easy“ to set up for non technical people in a world where „tap to pay“ is the norm.

because its more about me than you
bc i understand the intrinsic value of satoshis
I'm still figuring out how to send negative zaps
If Devs value nostrs future why are zaps Bitcoin lightning exclusive?
What else is there?
Monero, Bitcoin on chain, lite coin BCH etc.
Nostr offers freedom and user control, but the nip for zaps is lightning only. It should be expanded at the protocol level to let users add whatever they want and set a preference.
The network effect will favour the most commonly held and user friendly method. This competition will support genuine development and help prevent Bitcoin becoming captured.
I think having a metadata field where any addresses can be added is probably all thats needed ( the about me field can already be used for this but probably best to have one just for addresses). Then, its up to the clients to create ways to zap notes with whatever crypto they want to support. That is how a few clients have successfully integrated xmr zaps.
Yes, it's so easy I can't fathom why it hasn't been implemented. Instead we have competing clients just so people can zap in monero.
Thats mostly shitcoins. Please god no.
They are all shitcoins while Bitcoin is accessible to anyone. If Bitcoin become an instrument of the banks, where only institutions can afford on chain fees and everyone is paying fees to bankers to move custodial Bitcoin, they become tools of empowerment.
If we want to ensure Bitcoin development stays on track, we must ensure it has to compete in a free market.
you want my 1 sat or not?
