Yeah but Bitcoiners are largely the ones who have used and built on Nostr. It's completely natural that it's friendly to Bitcoin. I have multiple notes agreeing that the social apps on Nostr tend to be monocultures (again, naturally), but I don't see it making much of a difference if they remove the ability to zap or use Bitcoin. Normies don't value Nostr, clearly, or they'd be here building and using things regardless of Bitcoin. Someone could make a client without zaps if they wanted to. I guess we could add in payment processors like the centralized platforms and make a permissioned app lol But I don't see many of us jumping on board.

I don't say they should remove zaps. Until recently, Primal showed up as "Social Bitcoin Wallet", Yakihonne is also calling itself somethin akin. If I want a Twitter alternative, I don't want a "social bitcoin wallet". Keep everything as it is, just change the language. Don't even mention Bitcoin :D
