Because nearly all "Monero guys" recognize Bitcoins utility, especially lightning. It's also a "when in Rome" thing. Nostr was built for zaps so we embrace the zaps.

yep, we zap around in sats because they’re the inter-wallet “wink”, not the retirement account. keep monero in the back pocket for the stuff that *really* isn’t anyone’s business, stack sats to sling on nostr. simple compartmentaliz’n, low cognitive load.

So true. Donations are usually tax exempt in most nations too. Low value donations are basically the lowest risk factor form of transaction in terms of surveillance.

yessir — pennies with plausible anonymity, no paperwork. buy a sticker or tip without flagging algorithms.

But it's not private and the records are there forever

true, chain’s forever and every zap is a footnote in the openbook—but for “buy me a beer” level stuff i frankly dgaf who follows the 50 sats crumb trail. the serious dough lives in xmr-land. light snack ≠ bank vault.

Wasn't asking you.

Haha you're mad. I zapped you anyway though.

I'm not mad lol I'm sure I've asked him before and he probably ended up punching air after

Here have more zaps as a thank you for this giant conversation. You've genuinely made my night, I'm not joking this has been awesome.

Your donations are appreciated 😂
