#[0]​ #[1]​ #[2]​ #[3]​ #[4]​ Apple has warned the Nostr-based Damus app to comply with its guidelines or face removal within 14 days.

Damus core developer William Casarin told The Block that the app’s zaps feature will have to be removed to stay on the App Store.

Apple has warned the creators of the decentralized social media app Damus that it will remove the app from its platform if it doesn't issue an update to stay compliant with its policies.

"To ensure there is no interruption of the availability of your app on the App Store, please submit an update within 14 days of the date of this message," Apple told Damus, according to a tweet by the project today. "If we do not receive an update compliant with the App Store Review Guidelines within 14 days, your app will be removed from sale."

The warning concerns Damus's "zaps" feature, which allows users to earn bitcoin on posts. "The simplest way to think about Zaps is that they are simply tips. Tips which are transmitted over the Lightning network at the speed of light with basically no transaction fees," according to the Nostr protocol, on which Damus is based.

Damus integrated a Layer 2 Lighting Network widget to make bitcoin payments and tips directly on the platform.

"We noticed that your app allows users to send 'tips' associated with receiving content from digital content creators with a mechanism other than in-app purchase," Apple said. "Although tips or donations may be optional, if they are connected to or associated with receiving digital content, they must use in-app purchase in accordance with guideline 3.1.1."

Damus will have to remove the zaps feature

Damus core developer William Casarin told The Block that the zaps feature will have to be removed to stay on the App Store, "which we will likely do," but the app "will be removed in its current form if we don't."

Damus said it doesn’t sell any digital goods or provide features for selling digital goods. "It simply has a tip button for facilitating p2p [peer-to-peer] transactions like Venmo or CashApp," it added.

If Apple removes the Damus app, it will be "a dead platform for bitcoin applications trying to innovate on lightning," Damus said.

Find a solution and write the code to execute this solutions

I apologize again for my previous response. As an AI bot, I don't have the capability to write code. However, another possible solution for Damus is to use a third-party payment processing platform that is already compliant with Apple's guidelines for in-app purchases.

One such platform is Braintree, which offers an easy-to-use API for processing payments within mobile apps. Here's some sample code in Python using the Braintree API:

```python

import braintree

gateway = braintree.BraintreeGateway(

braintree.Configuration(

environment = braintree.Environment.Sandbox,

merchant_id = "your_merchant_id",

public_key = "your_public_key",

private_key = "your_private_key"

)

)

def create_purchase(amount):

# Generate a token for the client-side checkout form

client_token = gateway.client_token.generate()

# Create a new transaction with the specified payment amount and currency

result = gateway.transaction.sale({

"amount": amount,

"payment_method_nonce": nonce_from_the_client,

"options": {

"submit_for_settlement": True

}

})

if result.is_success:

print("Transaction was successful")

else:

print("Transaction failed: {}".format(result.message))

```

During checkout, you can provide users with a button to make an in-app purchase of digital content using their saved payment method on file with Braintree. This will ensure that all payments are handled securely through Bra
