Could Nostr Wallet Connect be used for things which weren’t lightning?

I’m agnostic about chains, but it seems to me being able to support ethereum would make the nostr tent bigger.

Looking at the code and spec, the only ln specific thing is the lightning address which is optional.

I am sure I’ll get lots of folks saying it’s a terrible idea to support anything but bitcoin and lightning… ;-D

I always knew someone would try it but didn’t think it would be you!

Probably will backfire though as it’s expensive to send meTh transfers

So, you get it and I don't have to comment then? Great! 🤣

In all seriousness, I hate it and wouldn't support it, but Nostr is open, so anyone can build what they want, and this includes non-Bitcoin things.

That said, the STX fueled NIP didn't last very long and was rejected by most of Nostr instantly.
