nostr

I am looking to attend an in-person #nostr conference in 2025, hopefully as a presenter as well on my project #nostr #safebox. Any suggestions? #asknostr…

I actually have open, honest and productive conversations on #nostr because no one is playing to an algorithm or wanting to be top dog on the platform (because there is no platform). I am also falling into my old habit of blog first, revise later. For those who care, I…

The digital wallet industry has this idea that you want to store everything in their wallet (I say ‘their’ because it’s really a government-approved app). Nothing can be further from the truth. A wallet evolved to carry coins (payment) that could easily hidden or defended on the person.

Now, four handy ways to pay with #nostr #safebox The user need not care about the underlying transport safebox zap <amount> <noteid|npub|nip05> safebox pay <amount> <lnaddress>safebox send <amount&

The reason I’ve become super hot on zaps is because it’s a great abstraction for generalize payment. I’m currently implementing an improvement to #nostr #safebox where the zap command detects whether the destination is a note or a npub and handles the transaction accordingly. The user need…

Posting on #nostr sometimes feels like yelling outside because that is exactly the case. You’re not in anyone’s house following someone else’s rules. No need to use your ‘inside voice’. Use your ‘outside voice’.…

Using #nostr feels like being outdoors on the internet. The other social media platforms, indoors, following someone else’s house rules.…

Very cool. It’s a njump.me link to an event which you scan via your camera app; it asks to open to your default app, which hopefully you can zap from. I also tried directly from a Lightning wallet, it got confused. We may need to standardize something so…

Friendly reminder that LinkedIn contacts are not your contacts. Tried to connect someone via LinkedIn at a meetup but we were both forced to upgrade.(we did not). We connected via #nostr instead (I onboarded him)…

Totally excited that I got an instance of ditto up and running. Even more excited that I can use the relay as the backend for #nostr #safebox But I still need help to grok how I can use this to make a real difference for a community. Advice, examples, most…

Well this is f***ing cool! I spun up #ditto server from @Alex Gleason 🐍 and used the in-built relay to send payments from a #nostr #safebox. Worked flawlessly!…

That zap was just over $300 CAD I am proving to myself that zaps can become a universal payment system that works equally well for a single sat or a fiat payment in the thousands (millions). The note I zapped could have been an invoice event with instant reconciliation. That…

I think #nostr will win out in the long run because of user fatigue. I am tired of trying out yet another platform (just tried out Bluesky again). I just want one app, or use apps defined by a community rather than have the community be defined by the platform…

Adding on to Will’s note - I see the three killer characteristics of #nostr note verifiability app interoperability payment addressability All baked within an uncensorable protocol…

I just built what I wanted on #Nostr. I might not change the world, but I didn’t have to ask for permission to do what I wanted to do. That’s what really counts for me. #TakeBackControl…

Good article, but I feel everyone is grappling with wrong models and trying to force-fit them into a new reality. With #nostr there is no such thing as cross border data flows. You are your own governance.…

#Nostr is the only network I know of where you can monetize your own content without anyone’s permission.…

This is so cool. I gotta try this. I am planning something similar for #nostr #safebox where you register the npub and links an address to receive payments.…
