What if somebody made a nostr micro app that looked at your reactions and sent a zap every time you had a reaction. This wouldn’t need to be in Damus, but because Apple will allow lightning wallet integration, and zaps based on profiles, but not posts, you can still put in your address and do a wallet connect. But then users could use a service, using nostr, but not created by any of the developers working with apple, to do a zaps for reactions service.

Should be pretty easy to do with Nostr Wallet Connect, no?

The only downside is I bet Apple probably wouldn’t let you link to or mention it in the app…

I’ve said Welcome to Nostr enough times to be marked as spam by Amethyst.

Any Amethyst users able to read me still!!?

Even if #nostr clients could / would give Apple 30% of zaps, it then opens the door to legal challenges as to the legitimacy of lightning / zapping. How do you track that? Terrorism? What about taxes? Does it pass the Howey test? Is it a currency or a commodity? Is there now a leader / organization that’s benefiting?

Putting on my tinfoil hat, I believe this is bigger than Apple wants their cut. I believe this is laying the groundwork to challenge lightning integration without KYC/AML. I hope I’m wrong and this is just Apple being greedy.

We've sent our first handful of mainnet invites out today! If you were really early to our waitlist, check the nostr DM requests area of your client to see if you were invited.

Let us know how it goes!

WhatsApp does some crazy magic in video compression. I tried to compress a 15MB video and the lowest I got in desktop+server services is 3MB with terrible quality.

The 1-click WhatsApp process returns a 500k file and reasonable quality.

What...

It appears that the government is exerting control over these "crypto industries."

Only the most obedient will survive.

Hard mode.
