Even if #nostr clients could / would give Apple 30% of zaps, it then opens the door to legal challenges as to the legitimacy of lightning / zapping. How do you track that? Terrorism? What about taxes? Does it pass the Howey test? Is it a currency or a commodity? Is there now a leader / organization that’s benefiting?

Putting on my tinfoil hat, I believe this is bigger than Apple wants their cut. I believe this is laying the groundwork to challenge lightning integration without KYC/AML. I hope I’m wrong and this is just Apple being greedy.
