Imagine if Brave did lightning transactions instead of their BAT tips. We could have had zaps on Twitter back in 2019.

Good morning! I hope you have a great day. I usually just turn my BAT into Bitcoin anyway lol

$BAT with kyc! Ridiculous 😅

Agreed!👍

Adoption slowed by shitcoiner greed. The narrative that most people are still too blind to fully understand

Impervious browser have something like. Not sure if development is still ongoing...

They got lost in the technical weeds and forgot to ship an actual product people wanted.

This should have been the standard from the get-go

You’re a pretty good coder, brave is open source, based on chromium.

I am thinking braver.org?

Or maybe bravestr #nostr #brave #browser

Good morning ✌️🧡

In Lex Friedman’s interview with Brenden Eich (around the 2 hour 28 minute mark specifically) he explains why Bitcoin didn’t end up getting implemented. Shame he didn’t correct the error of his ways when Lightning hit the scene. I’d link it here but my Spotify is being weird this morning.

Ask them.

I will certainly do it.

Brave has all the technology and skills to easily do it.

Brave and Signal going to shitcoinery was such a big disappointment back on the day.

Sadly KYC rules would make it just as useless.

Bankers really don't want micropayments becoming mainstream.

I love Brave but their BAT token is 💩

Everybody loves Brave. Everybody hates BAT.

I can exchange BAT for BTC so I won't turn my nose up at it...

We had zaps on Twitter in 2014. (And technically even earlier.)

It’s good it was shut down—starve the beast.

This app did a lot for bitcoin adoption. It took years for something better to come along and replace it.

It did but it made a safe space for intrusive tech to operate and normalise itself.

The market decided its fate.
