Apple will ONLY allow zaps, if 30% of the Zap was given to Apple in US Dollar format.

Any app on apples Playstore. All in app purchases/tips/monetary transfer , 30% must go back to apple.

Or if you send the zapper a physical tangible note in the mail on behalf of the noter.

Why not just mail them cash then?

They don’t have to use their real address and can put Tim apples address. Would be an epic troll 🧌

Or people just use web apps and android, and 30% of ever zap goes to purchasing manuer to be delivered by the dump truck load to Tim Apple's house.

Apple doesn’t take a cut of physical goods

They should take a cut of physical shit. I'd contribute to that #zapraiser

I think they would get the message (pun intended) if damus sent notes to the zappers address on behalf of the noter assuming #plebchain used tim apple’s address

Waiting for access to nsec bunker and snort PWA then we’ll be straight

The nsec bunker code is on GitHub. Go clone and run it. I did. Though I don't use it because I don't want to enter my nsec into a third party site. I'd like the admin panel to be hosted in my network.

Going to try this out. Thanks G

You could use nostore

I guess I should try that out too

I agree, but I don't know how that would work? Would ever user of Damus then have to have 30% of their Zap siphoned off and sent to some wallet that can be audited? That doesn't sound like Apple. Is Apple going to run a Lightning node with Zap splits automatically configured? That doesn't sound like Apple. They want their fiat. I just don't see how this would work under the current standards they have.

30% would go to the dev team, they would convert to dollars, send to Apple. There would be a lot of paper work and legalities. It is possible. But my God it would be a challenge.

A large amount of end users wouldn't distrust this though.

Holy Shit!! Yes. If we could somehow get 🍎 to run a Lightning node, I gladly will forgo 30% of my zap for the public ⚡️adoption factor.

also, 🍎 can

#zap Deez Nuts!

Dames would need to host the wallet, keep records of the wallet, convert to fiat (recommended daily, or else if price moves, damus team would need to make up) then send fiat to proper Apple channel. 🍎

I would agree, that would be the largest signal for Lightning we have ever had, but that's just not in the cards right now I believe

Heh. Maybe if Will moves Damus to El Salvador where it's legal currency and Apple would have to accept Bitcoin as payment?

. Try it. See what Apple says. Tweak. Try it again. Then move on. They will eventually come around in a few years like they often do.

What springs to mind Is a dumas specific Bitcoin lightning top up site using credit card debit card with 30percent apple fee but I'm no app dev

I understand what you mean, have a built in wallet on damus, to top it up you use fiat, 30% goes to apple. 70% is turned into Sats for the wallet built in the damus app. That's an amazing approach

This would work 100% , I have no doubt .

Will would have to become a Bitcoin broker or exchange to do this, though. I don't think that would work. It's a great thought and I'd like this thought process though.

Well 👍 might work from small seeds big tree s grow

I think to process this faster, will should reach out to a wallet provider (example wallet of satoshi or any LN wallet), and ask for assistance in incorporating the code Into damus.

Even better idea

This is a solution that might work, though that would mean that Will would have to sell bitcoin to users. He would have to become a broker or exchange. I could be wrong, but I doubt he wants to do that. I can't speak for him though.

Is there another way? Could Damus users have to buy via IAP that Apple could get their percentage? What about using an existing broker and their APIs? Though I bet Apple would still see that as Will selling bitcoin.

He needs to have a 3rd party, example on trust wallet. You can buy bitcoin, but you don't buy it from trust wallet. You use a 3rd party provider such as simplex, moonpay etc. Then the funds are sent to your wallet address (wallet built into future damus)

I know that that exists but we don't know what licensing or type of paperwork or documentation that they have to have for that. Maybe it's nothing. Maybe they have slipped through the cracks.

I guess for this to work,he will need to have a wallet built into Damus, team with a 3rd party to sell bitcoin to the users. He can also discuss how the 3rd party would give 70% of the funds in sats to the wallet of user. And 30% of the funds, would remain fiat, sent back to an account held by dames. Then forwarded to apples pay team.

Or shooting in to the wind prepay dumas top up cards with the 30 percent apple cut taken out wouldn't need to be a exchange or license that way

Sounds like an interesting idea.
