Perhaps barbaric is the wrong word.

Primitive.

Yep, that’s better!

You new here Chris?

It’s a lightning payment made in appreciation of a post. Instead of just liking something you can send someone sats as a sign of your appreciation.

Still using Mastodon but the lack of Zaps seems barbaric.

I challenge anyone not to be bullish after watching this video by Luke Broyles. Amazing content.

I don't think it's for beginners though. Is Luke on Nostr?

Receiving a 48 sat zap instead of a like feels amazing :)

100% but i think its a necessary process until it's ready for mainstream. Only bitcoiners could help with the rapid Dev cycle. Any newbie joining Nostr now would be totally flumuxed.

We can iterate and develop until the protocol, UX and features mature and stabilise.

What machine did you migrate to?

Hi Molly, good to see you here. Now to get the rest of the crew over.

Zapped you back. Possibly twice :)

First zap received. Brilliant. Notification and can see the zap amount on the post. Game changer.

I setup lightning tips on Telegram with https://ln.tips and a fake phone number. Can someone zap this note so I can see if NIP-57 is working?

Cool. I just set up the same and zapped you. Worked a treat.

Gm zap junkies 🤙💜

Here is my not-so-complicated guide how we can get you zappin ⚡. You need a NIP-57 compatible Lightning address (I gotchu) and a nostr client (Damus Testflight, Amethyst, snort.social)

In short:

1) Get an https://ln.tips wallet

2) Enter "/link". Add the credentials to your Alby extension (LndHub) & connect it to BlueWallet for the best experience.

3) Then enter "/nostr add " and put the Lightning address into your nostr profile.

Here is the full guide:

Just set up Zaps using #[0]

Any kind soul want to zap me to test?

So what exactly is a zap signature?

So should I see a count against my post if someone zaps me?

Proud parent moment. My son wrote this article for a school assignment. 🧡 (Any Zaps earned on this post will be sent to his Muun wallet.)

What is Bitcoin?

There are only 21 million bitcoins. Currently, the price of each coin is worth 23K, but the real price is infinite.

Bitcoin is a digital currency, which means that it exists only in digital form. It was created in 2009 by an anonymous person under the name of Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin is not backed by any government or central bank, and its value depends entirely on people’s belief that it has value.

Bitcoin works on a blockchain, which is a public ledger of all transactions that have ever taken place. The blockchain is distributed across many computers so no single party can control or manipulate the system. Each transaction must be verified and approved by the network before it can be added to the ledger.

Bitcoin is a digital currency, which means that it uses no physical money to be transferred. Bitcoin is decentralized, meaning that there is no central authority or bank that controls the money. Instead, all transactions are made through a peer-to-peer network of computers.

Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be used to buy goods and services or held as an investment.

What is bitcoin mining

Bitcoin mining is the process by which new bitcoins are created. Mining requires special computer hardware and software as well as knowledge of technical specifications. Miners compete with each other to solve a puzzle which is 67 digits long in order to verify transactions and earn bitcoins for their efforts. This process also creates new competition among miners.

Mining started out as a way for early adopters to get Bitcoins at no cost but has since evolved into a business with specialized hardware and large-scale operations that consumes lots of energy.

Why is bitcoin better than banks?

The idea behind bitcoin is that it should have no centralized authority like a bank or government controlling its creation or its value. This decentralized nature makes bitcoin appealing to some people who don’t trust banks, governments, etc.

Bitcoin is better than banks because banks can print and make their own money out of thin air. This makes their currency worth less. Bitcoin has a fixed amount and will only get more value over time because it is digitally scarce.

Bitcoin is good for the world because it allows people to save that were never able to save before.
