Is Bitcoin really independent from local time? The difficulty adjustment only works on the basis of earth time (one block all 10 *minutes*) So if the definition of a second (or minute) changes, Bitcoin also changes. What do you think?

Bitcoin is (based on) a Timechain.
The place you live makes a huge impact on your career and your life time choices. So think about it: „Have I arrived where I really want to be?“

This is just the beginning. Nostr is accelerating the freedom in the World Wide Web as we‘ve never seen before. I think every platform as we know it will be open sourced by our community sooner or later. What a time to be alive 🪁

# ⚡️ Nostr zaps - a guide 💜
Time to get you zappin' with LightningTipBot (https://ln.tips). This is my personal setup. There are other ways and services to do this. Do you own research. This is just a suggestion.
## 1) Set up LightningTipBot wallet
- Click here: https://LN.tips 👈
- You're done.
## 2) Sending zaps
Let's start with sending. You don't need much. Any Lightning wallet will do. I will describe how to use LightningTipBot to zap with.
### Sending zaps in the browser
- Get the Alby brower extension at https://getalby.com/
- Go to LightningTipBot and enter "/link"
- Copy the details and go to Alby and add a new "LNDHUB" wallet
- Enter your details
- Your LightningTipBot wallet can now be controlled from your browser
- Click on the ⚡️ zap icon for example in iris.to and you'll be able to send zaps.
### Sending zaps on mobile
- You can also "/link" your wallet to BlueWallet
- Get BlueWallet from the App store
- Import a new Lightning wallet
- Enter your credentials from LightningTipBot
- You can now control your LightningTipBot wallet from Bluewallet
- Click the ⚡️ zap icon for example in Amethyst or Damus and open BlueWallet.
- Pay and zap on
## 3) Receiving zaps
You can receive zaps with pretty much any Lightning address provider. There are many options. See: https://lightningaddress.com/
However, if you want the zaps to appear under your posts in Damus or Snort.social, you'll have a few less options (still). Here is how to do it with LightningTipBot:
- Go to LightningTipBot. Enter "/help" if you don't know your Lightning address.
- See your address? Mine is callebtc@ln.tips
- Optional: Enter "/advanced" to get an anonymous address if you don't want to doxx your Telegram username.
- Put your Lightning address into your nostr profile
- In LightningTipBot, register your nostr pubkey with "/nostr add
- You're done! You'll receive zaps and they will be shown under your zapped posts!
## 3) NIP-57 support
Zaps (those which appear under a note) are formalized in NIP-57. Currently, they are supported by the following services. This is probably not a complete list and tomorrow there might be even more:
### 💜 Sending (Nostr clients):
- Snort.social (https://snort.social/)
- Damus (http://damus.io/)
### ⚡️ Receiving (Lightning wallets):
- LightningTipBot (https://LN.tips)
- VIDA (https://vida.live/)
- Stacker.news (https://stacker.news/)
- strike.army (https://strike.army/)

One nice workaround is to use lntipbot for zaps in Damus
#[1] actually it’s a matter of implementation. In the snort.social client you can delete posts.
Always remember: Economic freedom is the basis of all other freedoms. We can be very happy to have Bitcoin on our side, as it implies economic freedom.
True words. That’s why we need free (private) cities. No power to nobody.
