 Have you also noticed that most people here aren't exclusively talking about Nostr and Bitcoin anymore?

This is great!

 Nothing compares to nostrudel 
 nostrudel is so unrealistically fast 
 bruh. iris.to:
- snort UI
- social graph spam filtering
– builtin cashu wallet
- random feed every reload

if now image upload worked, tagging worked, I could make posts with CTRL+Enter, this might become the OP client.

 Network centralization  
 Lightning is centralizing with great products built by Blockstream, Acinq, Breez, and Boltz. 
 They make LND but they don't contribute to centralization. Everybody runs their own. 
 That's not network centralization 
 Why don't you contribute code instead of being an annoying reply guy 
 Same energy as the fiatjaf note. 
 Not really. 
 Except for the decoder which you haven't touched for over half a year of me asking politely.

 Yep

Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) provides two-way radio services over 3G, 4G, and Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology, creating a nationwide radio network that utilizes the cellular infrastructure of Mobile Network Operators. This enables radio networks with very wide coverage area and untethers radio users from the range of repeaters and base stations used in traditional radio networks.

 This wallet is going the next step. Based on the Rust Cash Dev Kit, CDK. Connects to mints without DNS via nostr using Nostr Web Services, NWS. Comes with a mint with an integrated LDK Lightning node.

Very impressive work 🫡

 GM Nostr. 🌞

I'm trying something new. I'm trying to stop thinking or saying aloud that I'm bu... 
 Well said. Busy is the norm, almost not worth mentioning.

The question is, what are your priorities. There is always time, if it's important enough. 
 We had a Cashu dev call yesterday and four (!!) new wallets based on NIP-60 were presented. NIP-60 is a standard for storing ecash on no:str relays, encrypted with your keys. 

You open a wallet for the first time, login with your nsec, and boom, your balance appears.

Don't like this wallet? Switch to another one, enter your nsec, and your ecash appears there too.

This is pretty insane. If you're building a wallet, you're immediately plugged in into a social net. Now you can also carry your money around from app to app, or website to website.

If you're a Cashu dev, you should join our monthly open dev calls. Hit me up! 
 Yes, on all other wallets that support NIP-60 
 Good q, a bad client wiped my profile apparently. Can you try? 
 cashu.me is still far from being NIP-60 ready. There are code bases you can have a look at, probably the simplest one being nutsack.me - nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75sprfmhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5hsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjme0qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0y8qdrm's NDK will/does support NIP-60 wallets afaik. We use NDK in cashu.me as well. 
 Privacy: NIP-60 proposes a new event kind so it would be visible that there's activity. The ecash coins themselves are encrypted but the number of coins (which is visible) *might* allow correlations (realistically speaking, I'm not concerned by this). Example: "Martti seems to have 10 encrypted coins on this relay... I'm guessing that's around 10000 sats but who knows, could be 10, could be a million".

It might make sense to use a different key pair for NIP-60 that's derived from your OG keys, but that would be harder to agree on.

NIP-61 is about using these ecash coins for zaps so the whole idea there is to be public.

 
 lol love it

Here is one of them: lnw.cash (WIP, expect bugs).

 This is actually one of those mind blowing things.

When you look into space with a telescope, yo... 
 Another cool part: the universe is expanding. That means the thing you're looking at is moving away from you as you're looking at it. The speed at which it moves away increases the further it is away from you (like a dough expanding in the oven, you're the raisin in the bread). But the speed of light is constant. So combining these two facts, it means there are things that are so far away that they move faster away from us than the light they can emit to reach us, which means their light never reaches us. Never. 

It's your (personal) edge of the universe.

 I freaking love this! Thank you, what an honor. 
 How does this relay sync with other relays?
