Hrmmm...well that's not very encouraging. It's good to know, though. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’šโœจ๐Ÿค™

@crrdlx explained on his long comment that "zaps" work only between Lightning Wallets that are linked to #Nostr "accounts". ๐Ÿคฏ

At least, he tried to "zap" a "Hive Lightning" wallet (V4V) for @savvytester even if it is unlikely to be successful. ๐Ÿค—

Well, it makes sense, but it is also makes it more inconvenient for my own purposes. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’šโœจ๐Ÿค™

Perhaps just withdraw the sats on your #Nostr wallet to your own Lightning Node (LN) wallet (which I think some Nostr wallets would easily support) first, then send them to your Hive account (via V4V). ๐Ÿค“

I don't know if I feel like going through the hassle of making sure that my lightning node is online. I'd also have to pay a fee to open a channel to other nodes. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’šโœจ๐Ÿค™

What I mean with "your own Lightning Node wallet" is the wallet (even custodial ones such as on V4V) that you will use to spend or convert the sats that you accumulated on your #Nostr wallet. ๐Ÿคฏ Paying a fee is just one-time for a given period of time (such as 30 days), then sending sats between them has a very low fixed fee (down to just 1 sat per transaction). ๐Ÿค“

OK, I understand. I still think that Hive is so much better in this regard. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’šโœจ๐Ÿค™

I can think of the following as a quick (and likely incomplete) summary of the advantages regarding earnings on Hive and on #Nostr. ๐Ÿค“

Hive ๐Ÿ

  1. content rewards (for both authors and curators) come from HIVE token inflation, not from one's own wallet
  2. decentralized wallet; no custodians of one's tokens
  3. practically zero fees transferring HIVE tokens to another Hive account
  4. can easily change private keys if exposed; Hive Power and HIVE/HBD in Savings are protected

Nostr ๐Ÿฆ

  1. zaps are credited instantly at the recipient's LN wallet
  2. sats on the recipient's wallet can be sent or withdrawn anytime to another LN wallet

That's a nice run down, and it definitely look like Hive wins. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’šโœจ๐Ÿค™
