 Rumble should be implementing zaps and nostr for chat immediately.

If they want to make their platform resilient to corporate pressure, providing a P2P method for Users to reward creators which no-one can mess with is THE way to do it. 
 Maybe they don't.
It's still run by a registered entity. 
 Adding zaps would diversify revenue streams for creators, it adds to their model without taking away. 
 What do you suppose is the reasons that they currently are not doing that ? 
I'm always suprised that all sorts of things aren't using Bitcoin. 
Odysee for example made their own token and got hammered by the SEC , they could have just used Bitcoin/Lightning .  
 Likely they just have no concept of what is possible today in the Bitcoin ecosystem and haven’t had a need to think through this level of resilience to their model.

Bitcoiners think differently. This video from @gsovereignty is a great example of adversarial thinking and planning for different levels of threat. https://youtu.be/X_xgmVLyB94

That ‘paranoia’ seems pretty standard for a Bitcoiner whose money threatens the legitimacy of the State, for a Corporation (body of the State) they rarely see a need for that depth of strategy and in turn they’re not prepared for the opportunities such presents.

Odysee should be rebuilding on #nostr entirely. Project is going nowhere now that the token is dead
