I am using the term ‘instant micropayments’ more and more. It sounds less scary to the normies than permissionless payments which raises the ire of AML/KYC.
Plus I like the acronym ‘IMP’ which implies a mischievous mythical creature, pictured here.
Instant micropayments is rapidly becoming the most taken for granted part of #nostr #safebox.
I say this in a good way, because instant micropayments is now a functional baseline that everyone will expect of their wallet. It just works.
I am now moving into another exciting territory - sovereign health data - a wallet where you can store and share your health data, including prescriptions and emergency medical records.
The future is bright!
