 Eh I think adding NWC support to a service like #Strike that would allowing zapping to and from a dollar denominated balance would be a lot less work

 Does Alby allow you to zap to/from a dollar stable and denominated account?

 Oh, that was what I was suggesting. Rather than allowing CC integration directly with a client, would be simpler to enable NWC with a lightning provider that allows dollar stable/denominated accounts

 Currently only for @2a5e4937 accounts, support for stablesats via Galoy hopefully coming soon as well 🤞

 I don't want Bitcoiners to use dollars, I want non-Bitcoiners to use Nostr.

 Not sure how that contradicts my point 🤷‍♂️

If Cashapp (one of the most used payments apps by non-bitcoiners) enabled NWC to and from a dollar denominated balance, why wouldn't non-bitcoiners use it?
