What’s interesting is if you’re using private zaps like a DM, it’s truly private and has no public metadata. You could switch to a OnlyZaps™️ DM mode where all the messages are private zaps. This could be a good way to fight DM spam and improve privacy 🤔

Makes total sense. DM only if sending sats
Insanely good idea. Reduce spam DMs!
Really cool!
Follow on - make the requested DM have a sat minimum to let the user set how open they want their DMs!
太好了。👍👍👍

I want this
So if I log into someones account using their npub, would i see anything about the zaps in dm, like how now i see the dm without the content of the dm?
Killer app!
When you said OnlyZaps kinda sounded like OnlyFans 🤪 is that what u meant?
Lol OnlyZaps mode is the name of the option to use zaps for more things in damus. Well the mode doesn’t exist yet but I think its a great name 😆
Could this be used for small business transactions? If each one had their own relay? Idk just a pleb thinking 🤔
I’ll zap to that! ⚡️⚡️
Feel free to send zaps to my DM for a few pictures of my feet.
That’s a really good idea
You’re effectively using services like WoS to send the DM for you, with the identity and message encrypted inside. This turns nip57 providers into DM privacy proxies on nostr that also incurs a cost to spam. This is pretty fucking cool.
🤤
OMG
Lol that is absolutely rad
I think you solved it.
Would also be neat if you paid the provider 2 sats per message handled and the provider repaid the sender 1 sat for delivery.
This way you know the message was delivered and the provider has some financial motivation, however small.
👊🏼
All I could think of when I saw OnlyZaps

Finally, a way to escape the DM spam and enjoy the peace of privacy!
Yup two birds with one stone. I did not think about it when designing private zaps but it would be perfect for this.

Try again with the file ext
Only works when I do on desktop. When I copy paste on mobile it only gives 1 link, plus don’t know what the extension is. I’ll try .jpeg for zits and giggles 
Came up blank with .jpeg will try .png now 
Blank for png will try .img https://imgur.com/a/tms3lkr.img
What am I doing wrong ?
I think this as a envelope made out of money carrying a paper-message in it
where do i sign ✅
Can't change default zap amount from 1000 sats. Must be a bug.
Yes, fixed in next release
A Private Zap could be a request to DM (e.g. like Signal) if not from someone that is followed. Could be part of a new DM specification (other than NIP-04).
How are zaps being validated? Is there a whitelist of entities signing the Zap event?
I understand it is done by relays if at all.
I’m not sure it would be a good anti-spam, unless the zap was double-checked by the LM wallet.
I’m very interested in better privacy for DMs. Will take a look at the NIP to understand better how it works
They are validated using the nostrPubkey on the lnurlp endpoint.
My proposal of changing the name to Zostr — Zaps and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays — makes more and more sense.
The more things get integrated with LN the better they’ll get.
💯
