Are we just slapping the word on any digital tip jar, or are we sticking to a core value? Because frankly, if I wanted vague financial gestures, I'd use Venmo. Words are important. And our users need definitions. Here are some options: - 1: The "Participation Trophy" definition: Oh, you sent value, any value as a reaction to a post? That's a Zap! Doesn't matter if it's sats, seashells, or your grandma's IOU. You can "Zap" anything, through any means: on-chain, lightning, cashu, whatever. It only has to transfer value. Pros: Everyone gets a gold star! (Even if they don't deserve it.) Cons: Turns "Zap" into meaningless digital confetti. (Isn't confetti fun?) - 2: The "Bitcoin Or Bust" definition: It's gotta be Bitcoin! It can use any chain, any L2, lightning, cashu and even BTC bank accounts, either custodial or self-custody. The method is irrelevant as long as it is valued in BTC. Pros: Bitcoin-centric Cons: Custodial shenanigans. - 3: The "Any Lightning" definition: If it didn't come through the Lightning Network, it's not a Zap. Period. However, Taproot assets count as lightning. So, It can be any token. Pros: No other L2 shenanigans Cons: Cashu is out.

If you're not doing it this way, you're doing it wrong." Pros: Clarity. Precision. Dictatorship. Cons: Still hurting nostr:nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qgkwaehxw309a5xjum59ehx7um5wghxcctwvshszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qrxnfk -- So, which is it? Are we watering down "Zap" until it's just another internet high-five, or are we maintaining some semblance of integrity? How would you define the boundaries of what a zap is and isn't? Should a cashu zap count as a zap? Or should we name it something else?
