thx for the answer, but I see that kind of problematic in some cases.

we all want nostr to grow, right? with that you will also get officials (politicians, CEOs etc.) on here that might be in a jurisdiction that doesn't allow them to take (let's call it) donations...

just my thoughts on this

You can’t prevent someone from sending you a check in the mail; you can simply not claim it.

People have been sending coinjoined bitcoins to states and legal entities for ever; there’s nothing they can do to avoid it, but they can ignore the money

Yes and no.

I haven't seen a cheque in my whole life. Just heard about them 😆

How long can you cash in a cheque? How long can you redeem your zaps?

You have them, they are yours. You hold the only key to use them, and I don't think that it matters if you use them. I'm sure in some countries the possibility to redeem is also enough to make a taxable event out of it.

Don't get me wrong, I love your work and I'm amazed by the speed you are coming up with new stuff.

first, no, I don't care about politicians being on Nostr.

second, there's no reason they could not come either, it's not illegal to receive money.

and third, let's not be pussies. We live a cypherpunk dream, let's enjoy it and not limit ourselves.

first: you and a lot of others might not care about it, but if nostr is growing it will happen.

second: in some jurisdictions and positions it might be.

third: giving the choice to opt out is actually expanding the limits.

but what do I know...
