Love it! I'm eyeing the Bitcoin headcover. 😍

You've got to clean off the camera lens! We can barely see anything. 😉

No, I use Android. 🤷‍♂️

I'm having a similar issue today. When I zap somebody it sends the sats but it doesn't register in the primal app. It initially shows the zap including the amount within the Primal interface, but then defaults back to no sats being sent, but still shows the highlighted zap icon as if I had zapped zero sats. When I go to my Alby wallet though, it shows that the transaction was successful.

I just finished my first week on Nostr and I have to say I am very impressed. The zap integration with lightning wallets is mind blowing and the implications of it are profound.
It feels like the implementation and adoption of Nostr, in addition to the development of other V4V apps, represents a huge step towards achieving the vision laid out in "The Sovereign Individual" of reducing the stranglehold the State currently has over the masses.
A decentralized hard money like Bitcoin is ultimately futile if the State achieves global tyrannical control, but decentralized platforms such as Nostr, when used in conjunction with perfect money (Bitcoin), are the keys to free us from this dystipian outcome.
I've never been more optimistic about the future of this fight and am thankful to everybody who has worked on this freedom technology! 🙏

Is this an example of an account attempting to game the zap system for self-promotion?

Interesting. I noticed Alby had a waitlist when I went to their website directly via web browser, but it allowed me to sign up when I accessed the wallet via my client (Primal). I love the concept of Mutiny and am for self-custody overall (I have my own full node for self-custody on L1), but when dealing with negligible amounts, Alby seemed like a good option. I'm looking forward to what mutiny is implementing with Fedimint though because I know fees are going to remain high and only get higher over time on L1.

Thanks for the reply, that makes perfect sense! Love what you're doing and I'm sure I will eventually take advantage of your project and fund a non-custodial mutiny wallet.

I just set up my nostr account yesterday and was trying to decide between Mutiny and Alby. I ended up deciding to go with Alby custodial option because it would have cost ~$20 to set up a mutiny wallet. I didn't understand why opening a lightning channel cost that much, and since I was depositing such a small amount I didn't mind using a custodial wallet. Can you provide any clarification as to why the setup fee is so high relative to an unchain transaction?

Amen brother, it'll be funny to watch our government try to ban self-custody. They have no fundamental understanding of what they are dealing with.

I joined due to this conversation as well and am participating on social media for the first time. The integration with Bitcoin in the form of zaps is phenomenal and blows my mind. 🤯

How does Strike distinguish between a payment and a withdrawal since they are positioning themselves as a payment platform? I'm wondering how they categorize each transaction since you can "send" USD out as a payment but the receiver gets bitcoin.

Same here. I was always a "lurker" on places like Twitter/Facebook, but absolutely never posted anything before.

What a fantastic conversation! My favorite part of the conversation was the connection between a misaligned monetary system and the mass formation we have been noticing in society:
A broken monetary system causes loneliness, meaninglessness, anxiety, and aggression in society 👉 These conditions make people vulnerable to narratives spread by controlling structures 👉 A sound system such as Bitcoin aligns incentives with productive capacity and value creation, thus leading to a healthier society. Bravo!👏

Agreed. I wholly believe that any attempts to artificially suppress the price of bitcoin through paper derivatives (like they have with gold for quite some time) will fail miserably and result in an epic short squeeze. As more and more of the available coins find their way into the hands of us "psychopaths" (as @`preston` likes to call us) who never plan on selling, the spot market will have no other choice than to explode higher. Ultimately, any temporary price suppression achieved will benefit those continuing to stack sats at the lower prices.

Thanks man! Would you mind sending me a test zap? I'm not sure if I got the lightning wallet setup correctly.

@npub1s5y…6q7z I just got done listening to this interview which motivated me to create this account and post for the first time ever on any social media. I've been a long time lurker on X/Twitter but feel drawn to actually engage and participate in the conversation here on Nostr/Primal. Thanks for all the great content you create and I look forward to potentially interacting with you and others on this decentralized platform!
