You might not even know about the money, but by using your nsec to sign messages (read: you simply using nostr, logging in to something, or pressing a like button here and there) proves without a shadow of a doubt that you are still in control of your keys, i.e. the keys that can move the money.

One thing that wasn&#39;t really touched on, although maybe tangentially, is the idea that you could have no idea that you received any on-chain Zap at all. Only two clients support this misguided feature. That means that for all other Nostr users that are using other clients, they could have no idea that they&#39;ve received on-chain Zaps to their npub.<br/><br/>Since most clients (thankfully) don&#39;t support on-chain Zaps, their clients have no way of notifying them that they&#39;re receiving money to their npub this way. Furthermore, people who are using on-chain Zap clients (Ditto, Amethyst), these clients can&#39;t in any way determine if the person they&#39;re sending on-chain Zaps to use or have ever used one of these clients. It is far more likely than not that they&#39;ll be sending Zaps to a person who won&#39;t be notified in any way that they received anything.<br/><br/>Putting aside all the horrible practices that on-chain Zaps have for privacy that you outlined, the entire argument for on-chain Zaps at the moment is convenience. But I can&#39;t think of a worse UX for a common user than to have build a payment system that will in all likelyihood result in the recipient not being notified that they received anything at all or not having any means for the sender to know who they can actually successfully send money to and who they can&#39;t.<br/><br/>At least if I try to send a lightning Zap to someone without a LN address, it will say that I can&#39;t.

He vanishes instantly after, but not before leaving a trail that leads directly to you. A trail that’s very easy to pick up by the police as well as other mafia people. To make things worse, you had no option to refuse the money because the mafia boss is also a witch, and a spell was cast that deposited the money directly into your soul. And even worse than that, he cast the Pulvis Assaultus spell on top. Now the only way to rid your soul from the mafia witch dust is to throw more money at it.<br/><br/><a href="https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/">https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/</a> 2026-05-20T22:39:03Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqszsyv8hng37y0xqv6f4d70hgcuv99yavpv6adex62xu68tcm70hggpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0wayceneeul In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2yll5z6teu4p9vf0e5hchrwlc90a9ll84tawumqledyxg23s05yqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0z3hp9t'>nevent1q…hp9t</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>🤝 <br/> <img src="https://haven.dergigi.com/303bb25cb751435b95c9a60cb633cf4e6c091371479772e7f2c20d06c9e1ce9e.png"> <br/><a href="https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/">https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/</a> 2026-05-20T22:32:53Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs8zdrwdcsmw0zxm29axcsp3zpanuxewatzd9e44m8nrq6u5dgxrkgpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycrnk9tk In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxvnwc9zp5fxe0r3ks053gzpzntatdy3vc2dssghuau88j8wp6eggprpmhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf00xc9lj'>nevent1q…c9lj</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/><blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qqsvg4cutjddk6pd339lz2sl09w48ahzgqz39adp9evcef4wxcf5qvqpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchsygrwg6zz9hahfftnsup23q3mnv5pdz46hpj4l2ktdpfu6rhpthhwjvpsgqqqqqqs5322mr" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…22mr</a></span> </div> "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." <br/><a href="https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/">https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/</a> </blockquote> 2026-05-20T21:55:57Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrp35lghvah3g6z26cufel4lhj5r77tastev93e4p6m42qrvaurjspxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycpln2d8 GN <img src="https://dergigi.com/assets/images/on-chain-zaps.jpg"> 2026-05-20T21:36:45Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsvg4cutjddk6pd339lz2sl09w48ahzgqz39adp9evcef4wxcf5qvqpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycwsa9ar &#34;Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.&#34; <br/><a href="https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/">https://dergigi.com/2026/05/20/careful-icarus/</a> 2026-05-20T21:00:40Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0f7jp80kum9ucy36sss3kla4t0ll3ywzcjwxzd6h6xlrrz7r32hqpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0wayc7s9njn In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrm297xrhjskv8pn3m046taxeh0xfnzvmvtg4s26d6fmwsljc6vjqprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsy4dsc3'>nevent1q…dsc3</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>GM PV 2026-05-20T16:46:43Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsfn8s287687jfjm8kvpyvz7lcx8p2spfkqcznsq29gwd9ur6t9j8cpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0wayc8gzsrg 🎯 <blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qqsrm297xrhjskv8pn3m046taxeh0xfnzvmvtg4s26d6fmwsljc6vjqprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsygrenxq5zct58u38jqr2kyx0mqaaxwkl7g7gtewe6z2flhtqlrceqypsgqqqqqqsgt28t5" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…28t5</a></span> </div> The “people are too dumb for Nostr” stuff is such a weird form of defeatism.<br/><br/>People in the 90s and early 2000s went from pen and paper to using computers and the internet with UX that was objectively way worse than what we have today. They learned to type in website addresses manually, create email accounts, join forums, remember passwords, download random files, troubleshoot internet connections, and navigate systems that were incredibly unintuitive.

They see your data. They require your email. They can log your activity. They can be subpoenaed, hacked, or shut down. Even modern mesh VPNs like Tailscale, which improved on this by sending data peer-to-peer, still require you to authenticate through a centralized coordination server using third-party accounts like Google or Microsoft.<br/><br/>Nostr VPN eliminates the central server entirely. Your identity is a Nostr keypair, a self-generated cryptographic key pair with no registration, no email, no third-party account. The underlying transport layer is FIPS (Free Internetworking Peering System), a self-organizing encrypted mesh network where nodes authenticate each other, route traffic for each other, and establish connections without any central authority or global topology knowledge. Each node's Nostr public key (npub) serves as its network address.<br/><br/>The architecture uses two layers of encryption: hop-by-hop encryption between peers and independent end-to-end encryption between mesh endpoints with periodic rekeying for forward secrecy. When direct connections fail due to NAT issues, the system falls back to Nostr-based multihop routing through other FIPS nodes rather than relying on company-operated relay servers. Peer discovery and NAT traversal happen through public Nostr relays using encrypted gift-wrapped messages.<br/><br/>The new release adds native desktop apps for macOS, Linux, and Windows, an Android app, Nostr-based multihop routing for when NAT holepunching fails, and improved network management. It supports UDP, TCP, Ethernet, Tor, and Bluetooth transports simultaneously on a single mesh.<br/><br/>This is what happens when you apply Bitcoin's design philosophy, permissionless, self-sovereign, no trusted third parties, to networking infrastructure. Built by one of the people who helped Satoshi build Bitcoin in 2009.<br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/4ddcc934c61345671b9894d5fff2f694b9509b735193ac0b56da2801d9d1fa42.jpg"> </blockquote> 2026-05-19T20:10:09Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsydkv9skp3u7tt9su64nvmpa5fm53294st8fmqfvqcz6uxhytfsacpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycthv942 Neat! <a href="https://hashtub.snorkel.com/">https://hashtub.snorkel.com/</a> 2026-05-19T20:07:23Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsq98e87rahy0a36kgfs4xmdpx5pxglx4d493ykzeaa6ccuqs03f7qpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycj72gs0 Brocrates <blockquote class="border-l-05rem border-l-strongpink border-solid"><div class="-ml-4 bg-gradient-to-r from-gray-100 dark:from-zinc-800 to-transparent mr-0 mt-0 mb-4 pl-4 pr-2 py-2">quoting <br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Article"><a itemprop="url" href="/nevent1qqsgvqwy7mevgsjc4jjf0a6ngzx4g7k3fh3m34t33gzp7xx2t52jlgcpr9mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctv9upzpqls8mfarfq03sauzjcqkrtpnnuhalvjx7suxn0d0qnmdcdvnfm0qvzqqqqqqyk0q6kh" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1">nevent1q…q6kh</a></span> </div> "Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down." </blockquote> 2026-05-19T19:22:00Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqstnh8429fedmen5wscdnyygfnxrfg4hx7jx2j6gjcz2erwtuux50qpxemhxue69uhksctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0dehhxar4wgaxsctkv4hzuer9wfnkjemf9e3k7mf0d9hxymmcqgsxu35yyt0mwjjh8pcz4zprhxegz69t4wr9t74vk6zne58wzh0waycq3e9wq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqqnkl9v0wq93k9xcyefqp2npfmjysy524nmyp473cl09c93gunxspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj76ypkca'>nevent1q…pkca</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>🫂 2026-05-19T17:17:55Z
