50 sats \ 6 replies \ @ek OP 11 Feb \ parent \ on: Not every app needs zaps bitcoin
If we imagine a future where everyone has a bitcoin node, I can imagine your presence online carrying a way to pay you
Same here. 'zap me a coffee' buttons are fine
edit: Okay, if viewed from this angle, maybe zaps will indeed be fine in every app since they can at least just be intended as 'zap me a coffee' buttons 🤔
edit 2: Okay, I think what I actually have a "problem" with are pitches à la "X + zaps".
Adding zaps to X doesn't make X automatically better. (WIth X I don't mean what was formerly known as Twitter)
I think it's a very similar argument to the one you're making when someone says "bitcoin is going to the moon and our company uses bitcoin so we're going to the moon, too."

Maybe it could be summed up as "developers/thotbois think in terms of buttons/features/forms - not incentives."

It does get kind of boring to boil everything down to incentives though. Is there really nothing else fundamentally?
It’s incentives all the way down?
okay I have clearly not stopped thinking about it haha

It's a very generic term. You can probably pull it apart in many ways.
