The death of Nostr Wallet Auth is a tragedy, can we bring it back?
Mutiny had taken NWC and made it the best way to do "pull" style bitcoin payments for subscriptions and other things.
Reading through the NIP proposal where nostr:npub1u8lnhlw5usp3t9vmpz60ejpyt649z33hu82wc2hpv6m5xdqmuxhs46turz tried to share this nice bit of UX with the nostr community was a trip down open source spec hell and it has ended in it withering on the vine.

Everyone expects pull when they pay. An entire industry of SaaS apps is built on users putting in their cc info and forgetting about it for months. We need the same if bitcoin payments will be a thing.
