The first 100 sats was sent from Iris, which hasn't implemented zaps, so I did a second one from snort - which wouldn't allow customisation, so it's for 500 sats. Let me know if you got both.
Okay, sent 100 sats as a test - using Alby integrated into my nostr account.
Once you try it you'll be sold. 😎
Slowly then suddenly. I think bitcoin will trudge on slowly for a while, but once it enters the almost vertical section of the adoption S curve things will happen quickly. I would chop 10 years off your guess and suggest by 2035 or even earlier - depending on geopolitical/economic conditions around the world.
Not fishy at all. Muun uses submarine swaps to move from lightning to main-chain and reverse. It's what make Muun a very popular wallet - great for everyday use. I wouldn't be without it.
It seems to vary. I did a transfer out of Muun to Alby yesterday of 150,000 sats and the fee was 146 sats - or 3.5 cents USD
Same way but in reverse. If you send funds via Lightning to Muun you can then send funds out to a main-chain bitcoin address. Muun uses a unified balance - the total of both main-chain and lightning bitcoin.
The easiest way to convert main-chain bitcoin to lightning sats is the use Muun wallet. With that you simply send bitcoin to it and from then on you can send out both bitcoin main-chain and Lightning payments from the same wallet. This is how I top up my Alby wallet for use with Nostr.
I generally don't use snort but decided to in order to see how zaps worked. I posted something there and lo and behold I got zapped and the amount showed up on the post. Brilliant. Now, I just have to wait for Damus to fully release their zap-capable update and for Iris to catch up - and I'll be a happy chappy.
I like Snort but using it on Brave the menu is fixed at the top, so as I scroll down through the notes the menu disappears off screen - meaning I have to scroll right back to the top if I want to access notifications, messages, my profile or to do a search.
Is everyone else seeing this as I do? Curious.
Actually, on Iris the global feed is okay, considering.
Nostr is the global "Testflight" app for showing how bitcoin - via Lightning zaps - can revolutionise social media - by focusing entirely on the individual.
Zaps incentivise considered engagement, witty and thoughtful posts, meaningful communication and self-regulated good behaviour.
What's not to like. Just watch as this Nostr thing catches on!
Thanks!
I'm noticing the mention of "Twitter Coins" here in Nostr. Is this a thing? Has there been an announcement? If so where?
They've indicated that it will be compatible. Apart from that, I find no issue using Alby to send zaps.
Time up! All 10 x 1000 zaps paid out. See you next time!
