Well, I guess at the very least I'm free not to use on-chain zaps should they ever be rolled out 🤷🏻♂️

> Do nothing: If you don’t move the money, everyone will see how much money you have to your name, as was promptly demonstrated by “wrenchstr”, rich list, and other vibe-coded projects. 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. Bad for users. Fantastic for criminals. A wet dream for prying eyes.
> A more realistic example would be someone sending money to you as well as to one (or multiple) addresses on the OFAC list, suggesting to law enforcement that you are part of a criminal network.

Tying identity to onchain activity is problematic in more ways than one.
Oh sorry, that's not what I meant! I don't mean not using the money I've been zapped, I mean the feature itself, as in not linking an address to my npub, so I can't be zapped even if the feature were implemented at some point. 😄
