WE SHOULD LEAN INTO ZAPS HARD.

MOST NOSTR APPS SHOULD HAVE AN INTEGRATED WALLET.

CASHU SEEMS IDEAL.
Integrate NWC and then the user brings a wallet of their choice. Can be custodial, self-custodial, ecash or lightning!n
Agree, and we should change the like button to a dislike and zap will be the new like
What do you recommend? I am new here...
What's the point? I use Amethyst + Phoenix wallet on my phone, and zaps works seemlessly
Yep. #nostr #safebox is intended to integrate with any client. It will store health data, too!
Need a repository for apps that fit this bill... A ZapStore, if you will.
NIPs 60 and 61 are not listed in the documentation, I am studying NIP 47 but it takes a lot, 60 and 61 looks much more straightforward
very nice
ZAPS IS ALL I GOT !
If you want to lean into zaps hard, what about a monthly contest as a suggestion? It’s fun and lighthearted. And it spreads the wealth.

On a day each month, Select 100 random Nostr users covering a variety of topics/interests who actively post authentic content on an almost daily basis. Wallets must be activated. Each user will receive a whale zap of 1million sats.

If not monthly, then run the contest daily at 3 users per day, which some might prefer. Same criteria as above. You can start today. Call it the “1 Million Sats a Day Giveaway” or “Who Wants to Be a Nostr Millionaire?” or something cooler. You can also create a different criteria if you’re not interested in the one above.
I'm not sure how to get Cashu and at this point I'm afraid to ask.
Downloaded eNuts and connected my npub. Is it possible to add the wallet to Nostr on Amethyst? Trying to get rid of WoS.
Don't use enuts it isn't maintained. Use @Minibits or
Thank you. I think I figured it out. I'm gonna zap you. Can you zap back a couple of sats, please. Just wanna make sure it is working fine.
I was using another npub on olas. So the wallet is in app. The zaps from Olas go there. It is a nip 60 wallet stored on relays and in a mint.

Other zaps to that npub from posting kind1 in nostur goes to
Different nips different wallets, same npub.

These are my ios cashu alt npub adventures
sent you some Sats via Cashu 🫡
Spread the wealth. If it’s freedom money, help free more people. Lead the way. Be a freedom fighter.

I’m on @primal . How does one send/receive Cashu? And where does one spend it?
yeaj just gimme your useless zaps
JK
Cashu is great. I think there's a path through the Apple App Review Guidelines for Cashu in context of zaps on posts, albeit a very narrow and thorny one.
Primal native wallet works great, imo...
🤷‍♂️
Looks like freedom to me. 😂
YES, STAY HUMBLE AND STACK ZAPS ⚡️
dafuq is this?
TGIF I’m going ZAPPIN
Cashu is custodial so I see a huge risk here
couldn't you make it self-custodial by running your own relay? cashu seems like a solid solution imo
I don't see any advantages of using ecash tbh. It's more risk in the game
Nostr will integrate bitcoin into everything. There is no limit
I have been wondering if nostr will transition from lightning to ecash for zaps one day
yes, NIP-61
Zap is Bitcoin, Like is a shitcoin.
But why are a dozen seperate integrated wallets better than one wallet that connects to every app via NWC? The latter seems like a much better option from a management standpoint. I'd rather have one central wallet than a bunch of integrated wallets with individual balances I need to manage. Am I missing something?
Most people aren't going to run a node for nwc.
What? You don't need to run a node to use NWC. Many custodial wallets support it. Minibits, Cashu, LifPay, and Coinos all support NWC.
Don't use custodial wallets....please.
Why do you care if people use custodial wallets for zaps? Also, most lightning wallets in use are custodial. There are some with integrated nodes (like Breez, Phoenix, Blixt, and Zeus) that are non-custodial, but most are custodial. I wouldn't hold a significant sum in a custodial wallet, but for zapping they're just fine.
cashu doesn't work in ruzzia. thus it is censored and anti-Bitcoin.
What do you mean it doesn't work? It's an open protocol.
thank you for the clarification. I need to do my research into this matter.
No worries.
Sounds like Russia is anti-bitcoin, not Cashu.
cannot disagree, and his is one more reason why russia is not a sustainable substance and will disintegrate very soon.
Caveat— imho Nostr clients need to implement NWC as an option to give users wallet choice.

Wallet exclusivity is a centralised point of failure and can lead to mandatory doxxing/kyc, money services business complications, money travel rule and other regulatory issues that could expose users and destroy a NOSTR client. If the wallet itself needs to be subject to those considerations, fine, but give users a choice at the client level, or suffer the consequences.

If you know any *very* popular Nostr clients forcing users to use one wallet, (and I know we all do). Do not use this client until they put wallet connection freedom back in the hands of the user.

It’s a risk, you all know it.
Disagree, sorry.
#Cashu tracks you and wants many permissions you may not like. See analysis by #Exodus.
I don't think Cashu is ideal, regarding your privacy. It ruins the substance of #Nostr
Cashu is a protocol. People can use any app/wallet they want. I don't know which specific wallet are you talking about? Just pick one that doesn't track you?
@damus + CASHU = @primal competitor
Competition is Good for EVERYONE
Nostriches zapping all day via cash nut zaps ⚡️🥜
Cashu* dammit
I use minibits. Does that count? Zaps have plummeted the last couple weeks, other folks confirming. For my case some say it might be because I use minibits. 🤷🏻‍♀️
I just zapped you and it worked fwiw.
Thank love. Yes, absolutely. The question is do they work consistently every single time? I've come across notes by the same user showing up consecutively on my timeline and successfully zapped a couple of notes but not the next (of the same user). So it raises questions.
You make me swiftly test zap you everytime you complain.
You make laugh real big right now 😆 I do love the zaps and rather not miss on any giving and receiving. But I have to correct you. I am not complaining. I am assisting in quality control making sure all systems are good. Questioning is healthy for us all! 🫂😘
Happy with my NWC @Coinos wallet
I’m here for it!!!⚡️⚡️⚡️
@zazawowow ^ LF Do it
yakihonne's working great for me past few weeks. can even use the nwc from the built-in wallet in other apps 🤙
today no good yakihonne.com returns '504 Gateway Time-out'
can you install it from Github yet?
i did not personally try, got it from zapstore but pretty sure you can now
why is the primal wallet function KYC?
Because it's built by a company owned by known people, so the government can send agents to imprison them if they don't add KYC/AML policies.
that is not the reason. Its about custodial vs non custodial.
If government would not enforce KYC/AML exclusionary policies, then no custodial wallet would require KYC. KYC is just extra burden that no one wants to do, it's annoying, you have to integrate with someone providing it as a package, etc.
I agree that this is circular - when you do custodial wallet, then government will kneel on you and then you have to do KYC.
You could zap ⚡️ me some big zaps ⚡️ and I’ll distribute them 🤣🤣🤣
Or make it one click to install Phoenix from the nostr app, update zaps to support bolt12, update Phoenix to support zaps (it already does bolt12 well) and nwc 😅
Have been playing with Olas. One click nip61 nutzap wallet in app. Posted content. Zaps came into wallet. Zero effort or knowledge. 🐿️🐿️🐿️
Where does one find this "olas" you speak of?
Where did you find it?
On the developer's Shithub, but does me no good - appears to be an ios only thing
I have no special skills. I simply look at settings.
Which wallet did the zaps go to, tho?
Agreed, I'm loving minibits
Still haven’t figured out zap 😅
I’m in NY and on iOS. So most lightning wallets aren’t compatible.
Looks like only option is NWC wallet or Alby on Damus but haven’t figured out setup yet.
I spent all day figurimg this out:

So I spent literally all day today fucking around w different nostr clients & trying to figure out how to use a single wallet on them without having to pay an arm and a leg as a monthly fee or running some server-like thing on my desktop.

Here's the best option I figured out so far:
1) Create a wallet on YakiHonne
2) Create another wallet on Primal and fill it by converting fiat on that same app
3) Transfer the sats from the Primal Wallet to the Yakihonne wallet
I followed this tutorial and it worked for me.
I’m in NY so apps have restriction regarding lightning client.
Anyway this worked for me:
Also if you use Alby then I think you can connect it to Damus easily as we, but just looking at coinos it was hard to find intuitively way to connect it. You have to know what’s a nostr wallet connection is…. (NWC) …
Try @Coinos . Here’s a tutorial:
You asked for it. Here it is! How to enable Zaps in @damus with @Coinos
Thanks you get my first zap!
So glad it worked!
I just wish the option to buy #zaps in @Primal would start working again. It stopped quite some time ago, and I've been left without an alternative to turn printed colored paper into #zaps.

🫤🫤🫤🫤🫤🫤
It worked fo me today
If you live in a cold climate, consider getting an S9 to mine with @OCEAN and use it to heat a roomnostr: @BTCsessions has a good tutorial . Set up Bolt 12 payouts with @Coinos . It covers most of my zapping ⚡️ for the month.
having just got started with nostr using primal+minibits with the nwc feature is great 👍
THE ZAP TO LIKE RATIO IS TOO DAMN LOW
#Zaps are the future 🚀
We must ZAP ⚡️ our way to adoption.
Ride or die 🫡
@SUPERMAX, is this the ecash moment you've told me about yesterday? 👀🥳
No but this is top priority IMO with nostr apps


More built-in cashu wallets are a must
Couldn't agree more. Minibits definitely has NWC, but I don't think Cashu does..
Cashu is the 'protocol'
Minibits is the app which uses the cashu 'protocol'
Right but I meant cashu.me the wallet
& cashu uses lightning (doesn't have to) so therefore NWC can be easily enabled with many cashu-based apps
It would be great to have a standardized wallet across apps so I don’t have to transfer zaps around as I swap.
Use YakiHonne wallet and hook it up yo am Alby account. Only thing that worked for me.
Eu uso coinos.io me pareceu a mais amigavel
GM to you too!
Can cashu integrate into nostr now?
Peoples first touch point with bitcoin will be zaps on NOSTR
Imagining a future where Nostr onboards plebs onto a Bitcoin standard is the hope we need on a Friday!
Zaps are freedom of expression.
I just tried @fountain_app for the first time on a desktop browser... i left confused. I logged via nostr... tried to zap, said i need to login via fountain... did that and then they wanted me to use their wallet? Got 404 when trying to view my profile... maybe i'm retarded 🤷‍♂️
I think fountain is fully custodial wallet for now… no option to use Nostr Wallet Connect or Cashu just yet as far as I’m concerned
And, interoperability between apps for any wallet. That may be implied, but as a relatively new guy, I do not see that.
Absolutely a big issue. The experience is fractured and inconsistent across all apps and operating systems.
NIP-60 (nutsack)

Your wallet follows you around without having to configure anything, just like your profile pops up when you login to a new client.
While you guys are fixing wallets, can you also promote splittable zaps in all the clients. I should be able to have a profile for my organization , and one zap can go to multiple wallets.

My nutsack wants to be split upon.
This has to be called Nutcracker!
An integrated wallet for sure 💜🧡
The way Yakihonne has done it is very cool
I need to learn about cashu. Read it's fairly simple.
Bring back the #zapathon!
