I ran into this yesterday when setting up. Here is what worked for me:
1. Set your VPN outside of USA
2. Download Wallet of Satoshi direct from website
3. Setup through NOSTR client to connect to WOS (I just sent 5000 SATs from Strike to fund it
4. Turn off or move VPN back to US
5. Start Zapping
This was not suppose to work but has been fine for sending and receiving

I'm in Amethyst and have the auto zap selected but still opens WOS. I am able to open this page though.

I am trying to make this happen. Primal need NWC and I was able to zap with Amethyst, but it required to confirm with the WOS app. thoughts?

so if I'm understanding.
setup WOS outside of US, get some SATs on there and link NOSTR client.
then I can zap to and from without the VPN?

I use strike for some KYC DCA, but don't like tying my ID to my social media stuff, especially NOSTR.
With wallet of Satoshi, would I need to be running an outside of US VPN always, or just during setup and such. for example, of I am using WOS for Zaps, will it not work if my IP is in the US?

Jeff, I would love to hear some actual tangible tips and thoughts on transitioning our mindset to view the world outside of the current system. I have come to understand the need for this, but have a hard time executing in the real world.
thanks

Why is @npub12vk…pugg requiring KYC for their wallet? they won't even approve a NYM. Any decent workaround or just need to use a different wallet?
