nostr If I zap you, it’s nothing personal- I’m just testing Nostr Wallet Connect with #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Jul 17, 2025, 9:44 PM
nostr Repeat to yourself 100x “Bitcoin is the asset. Lightning is the rail. Cashu is the credit. And Nostr brings it all together in a permissionless way.” This is what the global financial infrastructure will look like in the future. This is what I’ve concluded in building #nostr #safebox #unstoppable… Tim Bouma Jul 16, 2025, 2:22 PM
nostr Some fun zaps coming in. These are going to my new safebox.dev server that I fired up as zero configuration server using a docker container. The most recent zap is another one I fired up in Ireland. #nostr #safebox… Tim Bouma Jul 14, 2025, 1:34 PM
nostr The underlying component of #nostr #safebox is called acorn. Here is an acorn I picked up during my morning walk today. Our neighborhood is full of oak trees, still to be considered ‘Royal Oaks’ because the sovereign kept the title to the trees for their wood which was the strongest… Tim Bouma Jul 14, 2025, 1:06 PM
nostr #nostr #safebox is the ionosphere for private payments and record sharing.… Tim Bouma Jul 14, 2025, 12:42 PM
nostr I’m excited about #nostr #safebox. It’s evolving into an email-like server that can send funds and records, like email. You get an email-like address that also is NIP-05 compliant, which you can link to your social npub if you wish (see mine). All funds sent… Tim Bouma Jul 12, 2025, 5:40 PM
nostr Prolly nothing. Created a #nostr #safebox using one web app instance. Blew away that instance. Took down the vps. Created a brand new web instance of #nostr #safebox on another vps (thanks again, lnvps.net !) Recovered the #nostr #safebox created from the blown away instance. What this means - if your… Tim Bouma Jul 11, 2025, 5:55 PM
nostr All seamless! Testing payments between two independent running instances of #nostr #safebox. It looks like an ordinary Lightning payment, but the payment transaction is actually using ecash behind the scenes, not touching the Lightning Network at all.… Tim Bouma Jul 10, 2025, 12:36 PM
nostr First testing of a zero-config container for #nostr #safebox. Fire this up on a fresh server (thanks lnvps.net !) and configure your reverse proxy setting to point to this and you are suddenly providing a service that seamlessly plugs into Lightning and any other #safebox instance that is running.

nostr If you need to manage church accounts or hidden treasure, #nostr #safebox doesn’t know who you are and doesn’t care.… Tim Bouma Jul 10, 2025, 11:21 AM
nostr Verifiable Presentation spec just finalized yesterday. Reading closely to see how much easier to spec something similar for #nostr #safebox OpenID for Verifiable Presentations… Tim Bouma Jul 10, 2025, 9:31 AM
nostr I am pretty bullish on building a nfc tap, pay and share network that operates privately and invisibly, even from the Lightning Network. The #nostr #safebox server, when an instance is deployed, just becomes part of a larger invisible network. If the safebox server happens to be taken down, the… Tim Bouma Jul 9, 2025, 2:29 PM
nostr #nostr #safebox is actually evolving into private payment and record-sharing network that I am thinking of branding as the ‘Solo’ network with the blue fox as the mascot. If you see this, you can make private payments and share records safely. Whaddya think?… Tim Bouma Jul 8, 2025, 4:00 PM
