This is literally the entire point of Nostr. This is how Nostr works.

I’m so thankful for all the discussion around on-chain zaps. πŸ™ Reminds me of twitter when I joined it 2017. Direct in your face truth. I’m curious when the insults will kick in.

this doesn't make sense to me. your first "lock" implies that your funds are trapped there. your second one implies that your identity is associated with them. those are totally different things, making it difficult to reply
