Nostr is not a social network with payments. It's a payments network with social. At the heart of nostr is bitcoin taproot for every identity. Every npub is a taproot address with a different prefix and checksum. That means that every nostr account is a wallet and vice versa. Whether or not this proves to be a good design decision, time will tell. But it opens many unexpored doors.
