Twitter's new Twitter coins will essentially function like Nostr Zaps, allowing you to tip each Tweet, providing value for each Tweet. The amount of coins will be tallied and shown on each Tweet as well. 150 coins for $1.99.

But backed by nothing
How do they get around the whole unregistered security part?
There’s no expectation of profit when purchasing them as their value is constant.
It's not a cryptocurrency. They have no value. It's just like Reddit coins, they're just awards.
Should rather be called awkwards
So they are like Robux, but much, much dumber 
apparently you can accumulate them into diamonds which can be cashed out… still everything happens in fiat world…
Imagine being able to spend your twat coins IRL… oh wait, you can, they’re called zaps and they’re already on nostr 😬🤓
This is a joke…. It’s not.
are they actually doing twitter coin ? hahahahahahahaha
Who’s tracking the Twitter coin M2 supply? 😂📈
They're just awards.
Agreed it’s a shitcoin, just making fun of how there will probably be people that make graphical analysis on how to make money through Twitter coins 🤡
But Twitter has a problem though. As we figure out by using nostr, twitters algo seems to primarily encourage negativity. Who wants to pay for this? Won’t get the same drive as Zaps.
it’s crazy that this can be done in a trustless, faster and better way with lightning yet this companies still prefer to go the old obscure centralised database way… i really don’t get it… or are they using some sort of “crypto” technology?
No thank Twitter. I’ll stick with ⚡️’s 😁
Nostr is the innovation. Twitter is the imitation.
Is it also rebranding as Shitter?
Elton is here like an anon surveillance nostr. Worst part is that he suspend Nakadai just for suggesting this.
What was the saying? Something like imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.
@nostr nice work.
The Twitter Coins team pulled its hair in desperation when it saw the zapfest go smoothly, suddenly, as they had been preparing to launch for months (or years?).
Lmao at the disappointed dogeheads
Committed to an expensive failure over there.
Exactly,
Twitter is the new Github, we just need to integrate all.
Sounds like a shitcoin.
Is this instance of following Nostr?
Honestly, it's amazing it took them this long.
Really dumb stickers. I'd rather get gold stars or something
Kinda funny
This is the "best" that twitter can do, because if they allow people to withdraw the money, they are considered "money transmitters" and have to go thru a million more hoops. Sad how gov't has ruined money and the free market. Glad we have Nostr now.

some dude in a book?
you've read it though, right?
I believe they applied for a money transmitter license about a month or two ago for this exact reason.
They’re panicking! They see the future too ⚡️⚡️⚡️
