In the Nostr ecosystem, "zaps" are Bitcoin microtransactions sent via the Lightning Network, serving as a way to tip or show appreciation for content or users. They function as instant, low-fee payments, enabling users to monetize content or simply provide value for posts, and are integrated into the Nostr protocol through Lightning Network invoices and receipts, as defined by Nostr Improvement Proposals like NIP-57.
