What are Zapathons?

Zapathons are unofficial events that happen on nostr which consist of rapidly Zapping as much sats or as many people as possible. The main focus of the event is to have fun all the while stress testing many Lightning wallets and clients across the nostr protocol.

Zapathons organically came about as a way to stress test various Lightning wallets that many users were using. During the early days of Nostr and Zaps, Zapathons broke Wallet of Satoshi and Alby several times each during these events. These stress tests allowed these vendors to make their service offerings more robust and able to handle the increased traffic that Nostr was bringing to the Lightning network.

While Zapathons can occur at any time throughout the day and throughout the week - they can be completely random - most Zapathons happen used to happen weekly on Thursday and Friday at 5pm Eastern Standard Time.

You'll find hundreds of people Zapping every single note they come across or they'll be targeting specific notes or even targeting specific individuals. (Zap the devs!) You'll see memes and animated GIFs flooding your main feed as everyone celebrates, produces content to be Zapped, and wants to partake in the fun and excitement.

Some Nostriches like to hold their best memes, GIFs, or even announcements for Zapathons. Posting your content during a Zapathon could mean a healthy boost of eyeballs and Zaps for your note.

All you need to do to participate is have a Bitcoin Lighting wallet and like to have fun. That's it. You can also follow the #Zapathon hashtag for an extra dose of excitement if your own personal feed is a little bland during a Zapathon time period.

y’all think mark zuckerberg will be participating?

can you not delete notes? or is that client dependent?

look, i'm a man, & like most men, have needs. I also live in texas. if you're not aware, the texas government has banned porn. not all porn, mind you, but at least, at the moment, the top 10 or so most popular porn sites. these sites are safe for content creators & uhh... we'll call them... "users," making sure there is not illegal stuff on their site, safe practices, verified content creators, etc.

banning porn is incredibly Orwellian at best & downright horrifying at worst. especially safe ones. having... "ventured..." into other sites that are legal, one can see how bad this is for society. these other sites have viruses, are unsafe, have unverified content, & i've already seen some really disturbing content. by banning moderated & safe porn, men simply end up seeing far worst porn.

i'm always going to be brutally honest about everything, & porn is such a hush hush topic I almost feel awkward posting this, but this is a really important issue. I think it's not being talked about enough probably because it's only in texas atm, but imagine if the rest of the US or world keeps banning whatever they find offensive. this is an incredibly disturbing move by our government, one that signals a possibly dark, dystopian period ahead.

so nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 I really want to come back, but I had to switch because i'm a pleb & the only way I could get my lightning wallet to work was with primal. so, 1) can i use my primal lightning address with damus? & 2), when i redownloaded damus on my phone, & logged in with my key, it looks like a brand new account. my notes, profile stuff, etc., is all wiped. is this because the whole "my key is my account" thing, & basically damus thinks i'm logging in on a new client?

oh the APP is called nostur? ohhh lmao, i must still need more coffee LOL

i'll check that one out too, so cool that you can use your account on different apps/clients

will my zaps transfer over? what is my primal address connected to? is my zap address public?

can I use my primal lightning address as my zaps stuff on the damus app? i set up my zaps with primal, but prefer the damus app

#asknostr

yeah just switched to primal after seeing how easy it was to set up zaps! and yes nostr > all other social media for sure, this is the future

anybody know how to easily set up zaps? trying to create an account with a lightning wallet, but i keep getting "the address should either begin with LNURL or should look like an email address." my lightning address starts with "lnbc..." is that not correct? tried setting up a wallet on zeus, couldn't figure it out, or mutiny... alby requires an invite code which I don't have
