Yup

Agreed completely. Value should be represented by āš”ļø and not by the number of views.

Zip

Zap

Random acts of zapness āš”ļø

Any idea how to combat zap cycling where two parties agree to zap each other’s content continually, effectively boosting each other at near zero transaction cost?

It’s just zaps. I don’t think we need to overthink this at this point

Zaps are like any other reaction in #nostr: they could be easily faked.

The signal is not in the quantity but on the quality: it's not 'how many' but 'who' react to a post.

I reckon Web of Trust (kind of) is where is going to reside the signal. What are your follows doing. Nobody can faked your follow list. Just you.

The rest is noise.

What are zaps?

It is a type of note containing the receipt of a lightning payment. It can be used for fun or as a spam deterrent.

Sounds fun

True. It’s the most felt

ā€œZap me so I know it’s realā€

It’s all about the pursuit of zapiness

Love it!
