Only sats can zap. Twitter's credit "coins" can only live inside the closed twitter ecosystem, require KYC, have counterparty risk, and are not money proper.

Fiat
So, the tools for freedom are in place: freedom of speech (Nostr); SoV, MoE, UoA (Bitcoin); global trade (Nostr and Lightning). Now what. Let’s do something about it. This is it, chance of a lifetime. I hear a lot about: “we need escrow”, “we need a third party to adjudicate trust”…No. let’s go. This is what it’s all about. Changing from a society where there’s only one value, greed…
Twitters “coins” are the same as FTT. All 💩 🪙 go to zero, just a matter of time.
Few understand this, and few have to understand this.
A series of A/B tests will show economic reality clearly over the coming years.
If you know how to receive, hold, and send sats you are ahead of the curve. You will prosper. If you use credit points of a company or state, you will be impoverished.
Is Elon fucking up Twitler accidently-on-purpose? He's the boxing glove everyone's staring at, while Jack...
Jack's the other boxing glove. And he's here. On nostr. Building...
Elon tweeted he bought a "charity" for 47B$.
It would be cool if he just grinded the whole thing into a big nothing, on purpose, for charity.
But i doubt it.
World's Most Expensive Troll.
There's the games They play w/us, and the games They play w/each other... at this point, who knows?
I think people give Elon too much credit. His massive wealth is built on a government funded climate scam and he probably bought twitter thinking he would be able to bootstrap doge onto it and pump his shitcoin bags to the moon. He had a chance to connect twitter to lightening but didn't take it because that would mean progress for Bitcoin with no super pay off for him.
Possible Elon is massively short his own stock .
Similar to how lockdowns made it clear our politicians were trying to destroy the country.
Yep
Zaps are simultaneously the hardest and highest velocity money ever known.
That’s all you need to know.
also looks like it’s only for “approved” content too
How do you zap? Is it the same as sending sats via the button on profile page?
Twittercoins are going to show how little engagement there is over there. Everyone gets zapped here, a handful of people will get coins and it won’t be enough for it to be worthwhile for them.
the thing i never understood about the problems people had with patreon, and paypal and other such services is why they didnt just use bitcoin? bitcoin was made to solve these problems
awesome
Can people outside of the US even buy these shitcoins? What's the exchange rate?
Smells fiat.
I don't participate in shitcoinery. Twitter implements anything other than lightning, and I'm done there.
Feuds you’ve found your new home.
Correct.
