People setting their default zaps to 2-3 sats. Are things that bad? 😅
Discussion
Alright, I’ll bite - zapped! ⚡️
Could be mostly stingy Germans which go for 1-2 SATs 😂😂
2-3 sats default?! 😂 Gigi , we’re basically paying in digital dust now. wallets are crying, and yet here we are, still HODLing vibes like absolute legends 🫂
Imagine when Bitcoin reachs $ 1 mi
I have 8 and 28, but I used to use 8 more 2 years ago when I started, not so much now 😂
No hay como el 21
nostr:npub1lrnvvs6z78s9yjqxxr38uyqkmn34lsaxznnqgd877j4z2qej3j5s09qnw5 2-3 sats army is back🤭
They never left 😭
hoped you memes sent them back to twitter 😅
I hear they hide out on Corny Chat
The smokers don't hide behind the school. It's their hangout
People should set the zap value at whatever they feel comfortable with imo.
My default is currently set at 100 Sats but I do change the value from time to time.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. 😄
I think we should worry less about “how much” and more about “how often”. This is how we grow the network.
They are just trying to find the right balance between “hodl and never sell” and “sats must flow”.
Not negative yet...
HODL culture trained our brains to fear spending.
Layer on a lifetime of ad based conditioning and a hardwired need for reciprocity, and you get this weird outcome.
People will tip a barista $5 cuck bucks without thinking, but hesitate to zap more than 2–3 sats on Nostr.
The fix is behavioral. Set a weekly zap allowance, measured in fiat, $20. Spend it freely. Don’t track reciprocity. Believe that karma will work things out.
V4V only works when we stop keeping score.
I feel like HODL culture was a necessary first step to understanding bitcoin. HODL in fiat volatility, then as you spend enough time learning bitcoin you realize bitcoin is just a better money. So you use it how you would… pay for things you want and need, and save in it as opposed to saving in dollars.
But i agree. I like this sentiment. just fucking load up on sats and give it away. Spread it out!!!
I want to get NON KYC SATS. That is my goal for 2026
"HODL culture" is inevitable with a monetary system that has a hard cap in the number of monetary units. It's built into the incentives.
A maximum deflationary environment is NOT in the best interest of human flourishing.
add the “NGU Culture” to this and end up with human stagnation.
Monthly zap limits (per app) with NWC are a super power!
Glad to hear you’ve changed your opinion
Cuckbucks are monopoly money. Sats are real money.
New economic indicator avg zap size
No good or bad
Careful. I have been demonized by like half the active user base of nostr for expressing this view. 😂
Getting rough out here 😭
I like that amethyst has multiple default zap amounts so i can zap a note whatever i think its worth instead of just one blanket default.
Yeah but waiting 30 seconds for another app to load and approving the zap is annoying.
If amethyst had their own custodial wallet it would be my number one choice to recommend.
For new people who don't know shit about Bitcoin, it's yakihonne or primal
Part of being a Bankster is being cheap. 🧐
I'm at 5 for standard zaps (no likes) and add sats where I'm inspired, laugh, or share with others. V4V
Yes lol
Yes, yes it is Gigi
Such is life I guess
Giving away money no matter how little is not a bad thing.
Extremely bad 😭
No people are just too bullish to part with them
Used to be me 21⚡.😭but these days I can barely afford 😞
Bitcoin is freedom of speech. Respect the coin or it will humble you 🫵🧡🗽
1 sat = 1 sat!
They are just LITERALLY sending you generational wealth, Gigi.
I was going to zap 3 sats on this note but it said insufficient account balance….
nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc thank you for the NON-KYC sats. I would like to obtain more.. but not via creating well thought out posts on nostr. Not my thing…
How can I obtain more?
I can go to a bitcoin meet up, there isn’t one locally, but I can move out further.. and that’s a good way to convert 🧻 to sats.
Is there any other way that i am missing? Just ignore the question if I’m asking something that’s grey area.
Mine monero and trade it for sats.
I moved SATs from my Strike wallet to my Nostr wallet for the first time. Everytime I do this I'm awed. The other day I sent SATs to my mom's Strike wallet (thank you nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5tm8sjr!).
We both were awed.
Going to up my zap amounts.
#nostr #sats #zaps #strike #bitcoin #plebchain
I hope 2026 things do get better but yeah
i‘m not zapping away generational wealth to some nerds
21 is the Bitcoin standard ✌️
21 million Bitcoin.
Money is half of every transaction.
21 is half of 42.
42 is the answer to „the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything“.
Bitcoin is half of life, the universe, and everything.
Iykyk
My default is 21
Not things are… Gigi… minds are…
The value that people like you have created for this community is priceless… 🙏🏼🫡
Nothing to complain 🤪
They want to pay more in fees (in %)
Sorry, I do not have too many zaps, I am from Brazil, it's not cheap to me 😢
They ain’t making anymore bitcoin…..
Its for the number of posts they make/year
Yes
I zap ⚡️ with 21 sats
More of a signal than financial contribution
I love it whenever I get a zap even if it’s just 1
