nostr Massively productive holiday, so far. Long hikes during the day, thinking about coding issues, then a couple hours of coding in the evening. So far, for #nostr #safebox: ecash multi-mint support Lightning invoice send/receive Lightning address send Lightning address receive via ecash DMs Zap event Home relay optimatization… Tim Bouma Sep 4, 2024, 2:49 PM
