Noooo, Monero tips should allow the recipient to easily maintain privacy.
An alternative approach is for the sender's client to publish an event with the transaction details. The recipient (or a watcher) can then sign the tip event.
I'm sure Monero wallets would also gladly implement support to give the transaction data back to the nostr app through a nostr URI so people don't have to manually copy transaction details.

Fair point and that's what 0.17 changed: a personal watcher runs on your own machine, so the view key never leaves you and since 0.18 amounts stay private too. The tx-proof route is interesting: no view key at all. The blocker is wallets: none hands txid + tx key back to the app yet, so senders would copy them by hand. If wallets add a callback URI, I'd gladly support it.
I was just going off the spec as written on the page. A personal watcher runs in the receiver's rmonostr client now? That doesn't match what the page says?
Monero? Mejor invertí en carne roja y huevos. La insulina baja, el cortisol se estabiliza y tu foco vuelve al cerebro, no a las wallets.
