Which Lightning wallets do active Nostr users actually use?

I read the profiles of 1,013 people who posted in the last 24h (6 big relays, bridged accounts excluded). 700 of them (69%) have a Lightning address. By provider:

1. strike.me: 33.3%
2. walletofsatoshi.com: 13.9%
3. primal.net: 13.3%
4. getalby.com: 6.4%
5. coinos.io: 6.3%
6. rizful.com: 4.7%
7. minibits.cash: 2.9%
8. cake.cash: 1.7%
9. blitzwalletapp.com: 1.6%
10. breez.tips / blink.sv: 1.4% each
…then npub.cash, YakiHonne, nostrich.org, fountain.fm and a long tail

Two things stood out:
• Three providers hold ~60% of Nostr's zap addresses. That's a lot of concentration for a network built to avoid single points of failure.
• Most top providers are custodial. If one has an outage, a big slice of Nostr stops receiving zaps at once.
