 Well, to be fair, I got my NIP-05 from my relay and @cloud fodder is gonna make that a thing. 
 I do wonder if nip05 has actually now found a usecase lol.  Maybe it would be an extra annoying step for a spam attack, at the very least.

You could filter the entire feed to people with working nip05 fields? 🤔

Or maybe that is annoying and pointless lol

I don't know:) 
 I have a use case for them, but it's a secret.

 Even if you told me I wouldn't understand lol 
 Time, money and energy that goes into NIP-05 is not being spent on Relays.
This is true during: 
- the onboarding of new users 
- use of an app that is constantly verifying DNS stuff in the background

Users need Relays anyway and they literally make most "problems" addendums like NIP-05 pretend to fix complete non-issues.  
 When I first joined I really struggled to get a nip05, it seemed to be required to be 'found' / 'visible'. I'm not very tech savvy so it was quite annoying. It was even more annoying when I found out I neednt have bothered at all lol 
 Spending that time on setting up a lightning address would probably have been better spent, so I can zap you 😜 . 
Although #cashu might make that unnecessary too hehe.  
 I had one but I got rid 🥲

I found zapping somewhat an extra thing to do, so no sending or receiving on this account:)
