    What are you talking about?

    I thought we were talking about where they asked what was meant by “crypto powered social media” because that was vague wording that could correctly refer to all social media’s use of cryptography / nostr’s more advanced cryptography, but could also incorrectly imply nostr runs on a blockchain or something, depending whether the crypto is supposed to be short for “cryptography” or “cryptographic currency” (cryptocurrency)

    I didn’t see anywhere in this thread where the user asking that question was mistaken about anything

      this was discussed elsewhere. nostr is tightly coupled to lightning.

        I have never put a lightning address on my current nostr profile. I spend hours a day on nostr and people only comment on me being “unzappable” (untippable) a few times a month

        But are you saying you’d quit piefed if they added a built in wallet for every user? For me it would depend how it works

        Either way I thought we were discussing the rhetorical question about “crypto powered social media.” That seemed like a totally fair way to save time getting clarification, instead of explaining the whole issue with the vagueness

          nostr has a pretty bad reputation due to the nature of the protocol’s inception and the people involved. any time that specific network is brought up, the discussion pivots.
