Rumour is that TIDAL and CashApp (both owned by Block) are working on integrations. Websites for both companies have a link that follows a standard Nostr reference structure: https://tidal.com/.well-known/nostr.json?name=TIDAL and https://cash.app/.well-known/nostr.json. Nothing is officially confirmed however, as far is I can tell this is the only reference to TIDAL and CashApp doing something with Nostr.",
