nsec Every IoT device, if it can store a #nsec, should be able to send and receive payments by default. That’s my vision for #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Oct 18, 2024, 7:06 PM
npub Well, zing! After a late night and early morning coding, I have proven to myself that any #npub once generated can immediately receive self-custodial funds via Lightning. No need to share the #nsec to anyone. Now code cleanup and promote to main. More details to come. #nostrsafebox… Tim Bouma Aug 22, 2024, 11:42 AM
nostr Image of #nostr safeboxes orbiting the earth, securely accessible from anywhere by the #nsec holder but out of reach for everyone else.… Tim Bouma Aug 19, 2024, 4:32 PM
nostr Coming soon! #nostr Safebox A Python implementation of #nsac (or nutsack) a concept invented by @PABLOF7z (NIP-60+61). A #nsac is a ‘wallet’ that exists as encrypted events across relays, only accessible by the corresponding #nsec. It uses redundant providers, relays,mints and blossom servers in a way that… Tim Bouma Aug 15, 2024, 11:25 AM
nostr I like this simple mental model for #nostr: #npub is your #nostr public key #nsec is your #nostr private key #nsac is your #nostr private wallet The last one, #nsac, the kernel of the idea is taken from NIP-60/60 by @PABLOF7z , but can be generalized to hold more… Tim Bouma Aug 14, 2024, 12:49 PM
nostr I’ve proven to myself that a #nostr wallet can exist across time and space, independently of any one app, server or custodian. The only thing which controls the ‘wallet’ is the generation and control of an #nsec which is free to exist within or flee any jurisdiction. In my… Tim Bouma Aug 14, 2024, 10:27 AM
nostr It's wild. I just proved I can build #nostr 'wallet' where I can store the encrypted tokens in a Germany relay and make the lightning payment out of a Singapore mint. All using a #nsec that never leaves my machine.… Tim Bouma Aug 13, 2024, 6:34 PM
nostr I am thinking about coining the term “nsac” to refer to a wallet-like thing that can exist on #nostr holding your valuable things, such as ecash tokens. I have already implemented a prototype #cashu ecash wallet which looks to be promising. So you would have: #npub - your identity #nsec… Tim Bouma Aug 13, 2024, 5:29 PM
nostr The #nostr insight that hit me like a brick wall at #BitcoinAtlantic came from the statement: ‘Signed messages relayed.” I realized that this was the fundamental difference between the current platforms and what is now being built with #nostr. The key idea is that the relay is free to do… Tim Bouma Mar 9, 2024, 1:24 PM
