With lightning zaps I at least know the receipt is from a legit source that I trust, but I don’t see how that translates here.

Hope this doesn’t go the way Mutiny went
What happened to Mutiny?
The servers that compose the fedimints have hard-coded domain names and one of the XYZ domain names got rugged by the registrar, hobbling the mint's ability to complete lightning transactions. Due to the DNS vulnerability, all fedimints are turned off(?) while it gets fixed.
Honestly, we probably shouldn’t even be calling these zaps… there is no lightning involved, right? These should have a nut-related name and clients should probably indicate which mint the nuts are from for the exact reason you point out.
Yeah i don’t think they should be called zaps. Thats confusing af, it is completely different.
To me it does beg the question if nip57 could use more generic naming. It seems like zaps and whatever we want to call this could follow a similar data flow over nostr and there might not be a point in having separate nips. Effectively zaps would just be the lightning implementation of nip57
