Nice post. Iāll now zap you 2/3 of a cent USD to express how much I valued it. š Iāve been chastised and argued with for previously suggesting good content deserves meaningful zaps. Iāve even had some say they essentially zap in āfuture valueā š Number bias works against creators on Nostr because zapping a couple thousand sats feels like a large number, even though itās only really a few cents. It would be better right now to denominate zaps in local currency to give people context of what theyāre sending, especially for people who have no context for the value of sats.

I forgot what client does this⦠is it iris? I was confused when I saw zaps expressed as cents. Made me feel odd and stingy lol.
Nostur does this, maybe others. Hereās how it looks in Nostur though. The stat on the post shows the number of zaps and the fiat value. When you open the list of zaps it then shows you the data amounts with the fiat value of each zap. If weāre going to use sats transactionally, people have to be understand the current purchase power of those sats at the time of the transaction. That includes zaps as tips for content.
