 It's KYC now. Took this a few days ago. https://image.nostr.build/eee022e3de6d9ca4421776faf7c4d40ee850553b8bbacdcd3876d85fd88b60c9.jpg

Verify with it, I hope it will work.

Otherwise, we have @miljan and @Marko to help.

 I know you can enter garbage info but you should be asking who are they simping for by asking for this data?

 Assume all KYC will be used nefariously. It's hard cos we swim in it but best to resist in ways we can imo. 
 I agree, for now it's only inbuilt wallet, and Zapping is like hitting like.

Maybe in future we will have some better options or primal remove KYC. 
 The usual way things like this work is they make it convenient to sucker in users then use that in malicious ways. 

Amethyst does one touch zaps. Coracle.social does also. That's not a feature exclusive to Primal.  
 Amethyst doesn't have a built in wallet that ties into a liquidity provider/exchange.  
 Exactly. Convenience in exchange for your details. That's why you and I are Stike users. Cos it's easier. But it's possible to set up your own LN channel with Mutiny or Zeus. No KYC needed. Convenience often takes a hit but I'd prefer that to KYC. I'm in process of setting up those now. I'll try post about it so others can follow if they like.  
 You have to have bitcoin to open a channel with Zeus or mutiny…. They don’t just give you sats, lol 
 No shit. They can earn them like everyone else. Or purchase.  
 I tried to set this up with a Nym and kept getting declined due to information that I was providing. So ya, not using Primal....
