#zapathon : the same people sending the same sats back and forth from their custodial bank account wallets for the same washed up memes. All while celebrating and convincing themselves they are using freedom sovereign money when they are just providing free QA for a bank.

It's the cringiest part of nostr.

I can certainly understand the sentiment, although I believe that we should still celebrate Bitcoin's successes thus far (real as well as apocryphal) while working to distance ourselves further from any centralized services.

As a revolutionary method of handling transactionality over the internet, Zap-based transactions hold exciting prospects both for hobbyists and enterprise-grade consumers. It's true that transaction activity has not quite caught on as fast with some groups yet -- including heavier merchants of goods and services worried about price volatility -- although progress encouraging mass adoption is being made every day.

But ultimately it may be forcing someone to abandon conventional monetary arrangements they are content with or comfortable with because others believe makes them much happier leading straordinary pig-off experiments.

IMO having a very small amount of sats on a custodial bank account it's not necessarily that bad. Just like going out at night for drinks with just enough cash, if you get too fucked up and lose it, make it just a few cuck bucks

I sometimes feel like this...

Meanwhile im paying vps bills and restocking on coffee 😅
