nauth It’s about as simple as this: A uniform resource bus (URB) with npubs as endpoints. The message format would be JSON-RPC encrypted with NIP-44 with NIP-59 gift wrapping. Kinds would be 2XXXX for ephemeral events and any endpoint discovery data as 3XXXX addressable events. Relays and… Tim Bouma Oct 31, 2025, 4:03 PM
nostr Negentropy syncing is the way of the future. I experienced this firsthand a few months back when my servers were under a DOS attack and I had to shift my #nostr #safebox relay data to a new server infrastructure. I used negentropy with #strfry and switched everything without missing a… Tim Bouma Oct 21, 2025, 11:14 PM
nostr Send messages. Send funds. Send promises. Privately. Securely. #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Oct 18, 2025, 1:49 PM
nostr Every wallet will eventually need these three capabilities. In my journey to build #nostr #safebox I have largely completed No. 2 and now am focusing on 3. I will add in private messaging but just for the purposes of having the safeboxes communicate with one another… Tim Bouma Oct 17, 2025, 2:35 PM
nostr I still pinch myself to see if I am dreaming. I can buy coffee in a foreign land in complete privacy without governments, banks or card companies involved. Just #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Oct 17, 2025, 2:22 PM
nostr This is still one of my fave #nostr #safebox ‘ad campaign’ images: Works for pontiffs and pirates alike.… Tim Bouma Oct 17, 2025, 12:04 PM
nostr The bitcoin exchange I use just added lightning as a withdrawal option. It’s pretty cool that I can now withdraw directly to my own built payment system, #nostr #safebox which instantaneously converts holdings into unlinkable #cashu tokens. What a world we live in!… Tim Bouma Oct 17, 2025, 11:59 AM
nostr This is an example of a lightning payment request for 1 Indian rupee. If you have a regular lightning wallet, it just works, it converts to sats at the time of request. If someone is using #nostr #safebox, the payment is cleared using ecash - no lightning involved.… Tim Bouma Sep 21, 2025, 11:33 AM
nostr Totally love this. My core component of #nostr #safebox is called acorn. What’s cool about oak trees is that it was the wood used for doors of castle fortresses. The oak was so valuable that the king kept title to all oak trees, that’s why you hear the… Tim Bouma Sep 21, 2025, 11:24 AM
sec05 Here is the whiteboard diagram of my talk at @Sovereign Engineering for #sec05 I am illustrating the simple block diagram architecture that I am using to develop #nostr #safebox . The key idea is that walled-garden concepts like apps, platforms, services etc, disappear in the face of more fundamental, infinitely… Tim Bouma Sep 21, 2025, 10:59 AM
nostr This is a Lightning Payment Request I built for #nostr #safebox during my week at @Sovereign Engineering. This is similar in concept to a Bolt12 offer, but can be generated by any user for any preset amount in the currency of their choice. This is for 21 sats, but I… Tim Bouma Sep 20, 2025, 7:10 AM
