This is a good point. Would be cool if the button changed to the value after you zapped for the next 5 seconds at least

I don’t get it, accidents can be reverted. What would the complaints be about? How would wallets get depleted accidentally?
Instant zaps without taking me put of the app are magic.
I’m using it now. Its fucking amazing.
Non-custodially too! I’m living the dream 💫
Yeah I can imagine about 1,000 use cases.
You must be half way to NFC between 2x phones? That would transform the economy of Africa overnight.
Good idea! #[5]
Tap-2-zap
Thinking about this further, moving the functionality of LnUrl into Nostr could be a good move. No more requirement to run your own server (much as LNUrl is cool). I think #[6] spoke about this.
Entry level should be super easy by default, lowest possible initial friction. Maybe with caps and limits to protect new people.
But with tools and interfaces to implement more advanced options / uncapped, open limits for those who want to. Orgs, tech savvy, etc.
When you say between 2 phones do you mean without internet access?
How could you do it without internet?
You could persist it in the postbox. It would show as “pending” until you get online again.
Could it bounce like a bad cheque?
What prevents double spending?
A lot more difficult! But I think I recall SMS was used to send payments in Africa. But if we assume they’re both connected that makes it easier if that is indeed the case.
Yes, offline, http://8333.mobi/ via feature phones and sms functionality. Here #[8] explains https://youtu.be/yknBN08hWOY
Speaking of Machankura: what if a nostr client low data / offline mode has send sms to nostr note + publish service & functionality
Have you seen #[5] ‘s PoS? The merchant can take payments on a very simple (cheap) device with no internet connection. The person paying (who has internet) shows the merchant a PIN that the merchant can confirm means payment was made. Very nifty.
Wow, might benefit from numerous payment pathways for both, either/or, neither having a connection to give greater robustness.
Can run various paths by priority.
But anything is better than nothing.
Quite nice to blend irl commerce with ecommerce with social.
🔥🔥🔥
This guy has offline payments. Between trusting parties only until online, (like legacy visa/mastercard). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XosysCtKxt4&list=TLPQMTIwNTIwMjMVAgVuPIx45Q&index=4
This example scenario:
My last zap was nK sats to a friend and I forgot to change it to my normal few amount,
Then one evening I was sad and out of it and instant zapped all the memes that made me laugh, next morning I opend my wallet and a huge chunk was gone.
I think it may need to warn about the amount once in a while or sth
Can the accidents be reverted for more than 5 seconds? I know I sometimes change my default zap setting. It would be good to have some sort of immediate feedback on the zap amount if you won’t see it every time when the invoice pops up
