 Genuine question: If you make your "nostr" account on ZBD, there's no way to use your account with another nostr client? And if you have a separate nostr public/private keypair, it is not possible to use that on ZBD? 

I don't get really what's the point of using nostr then. they didn't read up on the spec before implementing?

 They want you to zap them 
 So ZBD is the nostr variant of a shitcoin? 
 Its the hex of nostr clients 
 It's the Ethereum 2.0 Staking of Nostr. 
 It’s FTX but for nsecs. 
 🤣🤷‍♂️ I think of it as a gaming business that allows its customers to have limited interaction with the Nostr protocol. Can’t think of too many reasons why they’d want that wider social network than for zaps. None of the rest of us have zbd games, so not like we can interact within that context. 
 It’s like buying bitcoin on robinhood and not being able to send it off exchange 
 What do you mean, I imported my private key from amethyst over to ZBD and it works just fine...  
 ZBD owns you now 
 Your private key is no longer private, ZBD has a copy on their servers now. 
 They done swiped ur nsec then 
 You just handed your nsec to a company. 
 RIP 
 Game Over

 It's nice to be able to talk to zbd users. That's it. Kinda like minds
