nostr Running #nostr #safebox ecash transactions between different nodes using NIP-17 as the transport and using random relays around the world.

nostr Hear me out. Credit is not a bad thing. It enables the monetary system to expand and contract when necessary. This was the case in Canada where the private banking system could issue notes that were redeemed at par at the competing banks. This was especially important during harvest season… Tim Bouma Nov 10, 2024, 12:30 PM

nostr I honestly believe zaps can become a serious payment system. I am stress testing 10k sat zaps, did a 100k zap - all with no problem. My goal is to do a 1M sat zap in the coming days. The cool thing is that the funds and balances are all managed… Tim Bouma Nov 9, 2024, 2:17 AM
