nostr Also works on my old-as-the-hills travel Kindle, though I need to manually refresh the page to see the updated balance. #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2025, 8:16 PM

nostr The cool thing about developing something new from scratch is that you stumble on an unexpected capability for which there are no requirements. Then you have to back-propagate that capability into a set of requirements or a use case you never dreamed of. This is the exact opposite of… Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2025, 1:25 PM
nostr Why? CBDCs+Stablecoins are digital fiat currency that are cleared and settled on bespoke rails that surveil every transaction and can shut you down at any moment. Ecash+Relays are blinded tokens encrypted and swapped using multiple and redundant relays and only settled (redeemed) only when necessary. You can’t… Tim Bouma Jan 12, 2025, 1:48 PM
nostr The genius simplicity of #nostr is that beliefs are cryptographically anchored to npubs. You decide which npubs to believe, resulting in a shared belief. While your decisions can be influenced, nothing comes in between the npubs you decide to believe.… Tim Bouma Jan 12, 2025, 12:23 PM
nostr My ultimate goal is to provide a wallet application that even though your phone gets burnt to a crisp, your service provider shuts down, and your government goes hostile, you can still recover your funds and private data. That is the mission of #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Jan 11, 2025, 8:13 PM
nostr UPDATE: Once again, pinching myself to see if I am dreaming or not. I am making excellent progress on #nostr #safebox. Since the beginning of the project I have been building the component to work within the context of a command line interface (cli) app, I am now getting it… Tim Bouma Jan 11, 2025, 1:06 PM

nostr Censorship resistance will no longer be the unique selling point of #nostr . I guess we’ll have to go with cryptographically-enabled reputations and zaps.… Tim Bouma Jan 7, 2025, 10:08 PM
nostr This is the slow march toward permissioned domination. I want to counter this permissioned domination with #nostr #safebox. Before we know it, any digital interaction will require a permissioned app on a permissioned device, permissioned by the state (especially in the EU). The assumption is that you will be KYC- Tim Bouma Jan 7, 2025, 1:31 PM
nostr Super progress today on #nostr #safebox. I now have implemented multi-mint support for deposits so I can specify a mint to which I want to deposit, other than the default. As for payments, safebox automatically choose the mint to pay from. Right now the payment amount has to be… Tim Bouma Jan 4, 2025, 4:31 PM

nostr Looking forward to implementing this in #nostr #safebox. I have already implement automatic multiple mint handing, but a payment still is ultimately handled by a single mint with a sufficient amount. Now I need to add in the logic to do mpp, should there be a sufficient amount, but spread… Tim Bouma Jan 4, 2025, 12:22 PM
nostr Hi folks, A quick update. I am still hard at work on #nostr #safebox aiming for a release in Feb or Mar 2025. Right now, I am focusing on NIP-60 compatibility, so it can be used in other clients. I am excited for the longer-term vision of creating… Tim Bouma Jan 3, 2025, 1:42 PM
