nostr Gonna call the shade of blue used for #nostr #safebox "Aegis Blue" The idea is that if you see a QR code in "Aegis Blue", even though the product might be branded to something else, you will know it's safebox underneath some marketing copy. Tim Bouma May 10, 2025, 1:22 PM
nostr This is what a #nostr #safebox onboarding flow would look like for a campaign identified as “campaign1”… Tim Bouma May 10, 2025, 1:00 PM
nostr Test example of a campaign ad where scanning the QR code immediately creates a #nostr #safebox for the user. I'll need to add some campaign-specific logic, for example, funding the first X users with X sats.… Tim Bouma May 10, 2025, 12:41 PM
nostr I know this sounds as boring as hell, but the killer use case for #nostr might be the “Verifiable Presentment Layer”. Remember, “Electronic Bill Presentment” (EBP) of the 90s? Likely not, but that is the protocol you use to pay your online bills. Boring as hell, but critical. Now here… Tim Bouma May 10, 2025, 12:17 PM
nostr What’s cool about developing, discovering requirements, and iterating in a tight loop, is that you come up with totally brand new ideas for #nostr safebox After implementing this and looking at it for awhile, I can see that I can generalize this further into a ‘record presentation’ capability that… Tim Bouma May 10, 2025, 11:19 AM
nostr Just imagine if your web app fired up a wallet for your exclusive use, and if you decided you no longer wanted to use that service you could just take the wallet (funds and all) and plug it into another service. This is possible with #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma May 9, 2025, 6:55 PM

nostr Some excellent feedback. So now it's 'Simple Payments, Safe Sharing, Secure Storage' Those words should not scare a normie into thinking they are a criminal for wanting their agency and privacy. #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma May 9, 2025, 1:54 PM
nostr I've crunched the value proposition of #nostr #safebox to this. Though, for the normie crowd, I would use the word 'Private' instead of 'Sovereign'.… Tim Bouma May 9, 2025, 12:33 PM
nostr Yes. This is what is happening on my #nostr #safebox project- signed JSON events for inter-app communication, https/JSON/API for web app client only.… Tim Bouma May 8, 2025, 6:38 PM
nostr Another nugget from a mailing list. People are starting to recognize the problem that #nostr so elegantly fixes Certificates as used in practice actually conflate authentication and a degree of authorization and that is one of the reasons the model is so useful in practice. But that model doesn' Tim Bouma May 8, 2025, 6:26 PM
nostr I am now working on a generic record handling module for #nostr #safebox. This shows the beginnings of that module where I can view my personal notes, health data, or credentials. The module will eventually be able to handle any category defined.… Tim Bouma May 8, 2025, 1:13 PM
nostr This is what is being presented (today) as ‘state of the art’ at the identity conferences. From what I have learned what I can do with #nostr, this is unnecessarily complicated because they are not using a cryptographic protocol at its core (like nostr). Plus there are some very problematic… Tim Bouma May 8, 2025, 12:53 PM
nostr The most exciting thing I see with #nostr is to build ‘digital selfhood’ capabilities that exist on the network, independently of any app, device, or platform accessible only by you. With your trusted client of choice (for example,Signal) you just add the capabilities you need in that application context. Tim Bouma May 8, 2025, 12:36 PM
nostr Right now, I am building a separate app #nostr #safebox for the latter three capabilities (payment, sharing and storage). But eventually my app could completely disappear into another app and become a set of #nostr network capabilities, so long as you have the private key to that instance of the… Tim Bouma May 7, 2025, 5:39 PM
nostr Also, not gonna lie. I'd be thrilled if this happened with #nostr #safebox invisible and under the hood.… Tim Bouma May 7, 2025, 3:15 PM
nostr I’m not gonna lie, but this has me even more excited for (or than) #nostr #safebox. #nauth came out of a problem I had to solve for @nosfabrica , where I wanted the patient to be on totally equal footing to the the physician (both as #nostr #safebox users). Either… Tim Bouma May 7, 2025, 2:27 PM
nostr I could access #nostr #safebox all throughout Rajasthan, India, but the WiFI at the local dentist's office? No. My Amethyst client works fine. The key finding for me? I need to build an Android app that doesn't touch https: at all.… Tim Bouma May 7, 2025, 12:54 PM
