Sir ! I don’t care about zaps! You didn’t read my message properly !

It's 100x more impactful to onboard someone, and then see them get 50 zaps when you post it on social media. I did this for a girl who works at a place I get breakfast and coffee from a lot. She got over $100 in zaps from me simply posting the QR of her address on Nostr.
She was absolutely fucking stoked. She literally lit up when i came back in and what had been a 20 second introduction turned into a long conversation and she was *eager.*
This experience is WHY she got excited and cared. If I had set her up with Phoenix in 30 or so seconds, she'd have received my larger-than-normal tip, she would've remembered there was something with a key she was supposed to save (which she won't do), it would have sat there stagnant and untouched for weeks or a month and she'd have completely forgotten about it.
Risk matters, Experience matter. Order of operations matter.
If she hadn't had the excitement of receiving zaps from a ton of people she didn't know, she'd have never *cared* about self custody or Bitcoin at all.
