It is a good starting point to have a node in your house.


Yes, I agree! 😀


I'm playing with their appstore, the whole system for publishing apps is well thought out, I haven't updated my node yet. The new version does not work well?


If you think it's ok, when you are doing it, if you see that something should be changed to make things easier for the user please let me know and I will modify it, my goal is to install it in a blink of an eye.


Umbrel is 👌🏻🤓💜


Great, I love to see it working, my day gets better every time someone installs it! I'm here for any questions!!

Hello #nostr 💜

I am looking for a volunteer who wants to install the server using the new docker image I have created.

I would like you to follow the instructions in the new readme to make sure it is more or less clear how to proceed.

In theory, it's click & run :)

Good morning 😀


Good morning 😀🫂☕🐶💜


From now on, all unregistered pubkeys uploading files to nostrcheck.me will aggregate their uploads in a private folder. This paves the way for the full standardization of multimedia servers, allowing someone to transfer their files from one server to another whenever they want.

The new structure is:

https://[server]/[pubkey]/[filename]

I'm preparing a PR for NIP96 specifying this requirement, hoping it gets accepted so I can move forward with my goal. Unhooking multimedia files from a single server by encouraging the installation of nostrcheck-server in as many instances as possible (there are over 10 installations worldwide! 🥳🥳), and pressuring to standardize paths and methods of storing information. This way, a nostr client will find it very easy to scan a set of multimedia servers to find a file (the filename has already been standardized with NIP96, using its original hash everywhere).

This is my contribution, hoping it becomes a reality soon.

All of this is implemented in 0.5.0, with automatic folder migration module and legacy routes to maintain backward compatibility 🙂


Good morning 🙂


Buenos días 😀


Good morning #nostr 😀☕🫂😌💜


Yes, only the first 100 and from here on it will be up to whoever wants to let others in or not 😎


Also Amethyst 💜


What you are seeing is the prototype of public galleries in 0.5.0. Anyone who installs nostrcheck-server on their server will be able to offer this service, or simply have their own nostraddress, media server and lightning redirects without having to depend on anyone else. With its frontend to share your profile to everyone 🥳🥳


(Audio on 🙏) Did you know that from any NIP96 compatible client (Nostur, Coracle, Snort, Nostter) you can upload your (own) audio clips to nostrcheck and then play or share it in your public gallery?

You just need to have an account and select nostrcheck.me as your preferred server 💜

https://nostrcheck.me/media/quentin/905d2298c082a7ed1538ef60ee9bbd6ff495f2cab0800e2e9379976dbac3c9fd.mp4


There are only two brave ones who have dared 😂😂. nostrcheck.me doesn't really use for its frontend the server yet. In this version it will only use some parts.

The server is intended to replace 100% the frontend of nostrcheck.me, but there is still time left (I think in 0.6.0).

0.5.0 is focused on administration tools and some frontend (I have the galleries almost finished). But the iteration of this version was always to make life easier for admins.

In 0.7.0 I will integrate something that I have not put anywhere, the option to charge sats for services. Whoever wants will be able to charge for nostraddress, uploading, downloading, fees, redirections, etc. To each his own


Plebchain.club is full 💜🥳

Hi all,
I am a dutch female video artist.
I design show visuals, projections and immersive experiences from a studio in an old fortress in Holland.
My friend nostr:npub1gwa27rpgum8mr9d30msg8cv7kwj2lhav2nvmdwh3wqnsa5vnudxqlta2sz introduced me to Nostr a couple of days ago, so I am a major noob to this.
Let's connect!


🐶🐾👀👀👀

https://recurse.chat


Done 😀


Which instance,  https://mockingyou.com/ ?

That's because they don't have user registration enabled yet.

They must add your pubkey manually.


He is probably making adjustments, it is now online!


A new instance of nostrcheck-server has been born 💜

https://mockingyou.com/

This server uses 0.5.0 version,  nostr:npub1kmsnnxw6p8vlk2l2dh0443jkj0txl7jrww8qpx4vd428he0a8jqqy6tjep is the brave one who has dared to do it!! We are just finishing polishing some things but it seems that everything went well.

If anyone else wants to try the new version I will be happy to help you to migrate from 0.4.2 or directly to a new installation.

If everything goes well in a few days I will have the documentation ready and we will be able to release the version to the public.

Thanks nostr:npub1kmsnnxw6p8vlk2l2dh0443jkj0txl7jrww8qpx4vd428he0a8jqqy6tjep for testing it🙏🙏

Okay, I think I have something that can be called 0.5.0. I would have liked to add more features but they are left for future versions. The important thing is done.

Now it's time to document and test with other instances. If someone is willing to let me know!!! Nostrcheck.me has been 2 months with this version, and except for some things that are already solved everything has been perfect!

 This version has twice as many commits as the rest of the project!


Almost done!!!!

We are milking the cow before it grows up. This is not the way.

It is legitimate to make money, but you have to know when to do it. Imagine bitcoin OGs charging for using bitcoin-core? Bitcoin would not exist.

I can identify 🤣🤣


Nostr is a giant shit show.  The fact that our software interoperates at all is a miracle and probably just a temporary anomaly. Given enough time, the relentless breaking changes being made to published NIPs will eventually break everything.

Linux succeeded because "WE DO NOT BREAK USERSPACE". For nostr to succeed, changes must "NOT BREAK EXISTING IMPLEMENTATIONS". There shouldn't be any exceptions to that EVEN IF THE IMPLEMENTATION WAS NON-COMPLIANT.

Pay close attention to Linus right here:

  > Are you saying that pulseaudio is entering on some weird loop if the
  > returned value is not -EINVAL? That seems a bug at pulseaudio.

  Mauro, SHUT THE FUCK UP!

  It's a bug alright - in the kernel. How long have you been a
  maintainer? And you *still* haven't learnt the first rule of kernel
  maintenance?

  If a change results in user programs breaking, it's a bug in the
  kernel. We never EVER blame the user programs. How hard can this be to
  understand?

Linus doesn't want to break pulseaudio EVEN THOUGH pulseaudio was doing the wrong thing.

It seems like every week I find a NIP that I've coded for has changed. This last week I think it happened three times already. Sometimes it's a small change and I quickly update my code. But I can't read all the PRs, and I'm afraid dozens of small changes have slipped past my notice. Gossip is probably now incompatible with multiple other implementations which happen to have implemented different versions of the same NIPs (some older, some newer).

Even if we didn't have any breaking changes, the simple fact that different software implements different optional NIPs itself presents to end users like broken software. Why does it work in Damus but not Amethyst? Why does it work in Amethyst but not Coracle? That is an even harder problem to solve.

But let's at least solve the easier problem and stop changing NIPs.  If you don't like a NIP make a new one, don't break the current one. Even if you think the current one sucks balls and should have never happened. Even if you think there aren't many implementations out there.


I have real headaches to maintain legacy compatibility in my software, but it is necessary, I think 100% the same. We can't break things without leaving an alternative that still works.


Work to leave a legacy for those who come after us. Don't waste your talent, wake up nostrich ☕😀

Morning thoughts 😌


We should do it, I've had it on the table for weeks. I'm now preparing a new version, I'll see if I can add it without breaking everything else🤣🤣🤣


🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice to meet you 😀


I think you answered on another note 🤣

Here we talk about nerds and humans🤓🤓🤓💜


🤣🤣🫂🤓💜

There are programs that it is preferable to download the source code and convert it into an exe or any other executable (with the appropriate tools), to ensure that nobody introduces code that modifies the behavior of the program.

Build it yourselve is basically this 😀


Sometimes there is nothing to compile, sometimes it is better to build it yourself to be sure that the resulting executable is not maliciously modified.

Most of the projects on github are from amateur people without the resources to document and do everything necessary to release a new version (maintain support, etc).

I understand you, it has happened to me, but Github is not the Appstore 🤓😀💜


ANNOUNCEMENT:  New Relay Software called Chorus

"Here ye, here ye, the herald hath proclaimed that a wizened old mage from the beige tower to the South hath bestoweth upon our land yet another relay implementation of potential great import and with great anticipation. And the people rose up in song and in praise of this new relay software. And the people called it "Chorus" for it had inspired them to sing." - 1st Abominations 13:37

Chorus is a new nostr relay software implementation, brought to you by the same guy that brought you the Gossip client.

  Interviewer: Why did you write chorus?
  Me: I don't know.

  Interviewer: Why should somebody run chorus as opposed to another relay implementation?
  Me: I don't know.

  Interviewer: Have you even thoroughly tested this relay yet before announcing it?
  Me: Um....

  Interviewer: Do you even use it yourself?
  Me: Not as such. Well, not yet. I think I should test it first.

There you have it folks! Pay no attention to the fine print below.

* Details are at https://github.com/mikedilger/chorus
* Chorus is MIT licensed
* Chorus is architected to be high performance, but I don't know if it is.
* Chorus is not setup to charge users.
* Chorus can work as your personal relay. I don't know whether you should have a personal relay.
* Chorus is new, and like all new software it probably has significant issues.
* Chorus supports all the critical relay NIPs.


Just leaving this here 💜

I am adding a last minute options menu because I think it will make the configuration much easier for everyone, so you don't have to touch text files.

It's frustrating at times 😅

On the other hand, nice to meet you!


I pose this question:

Don't you think it's a bit selfish not to try to make everyone we know have some fraction of BTC? I recognize that there are people to whom I don't talk about this, for privacy or because I know they won't even want to hear about it.

I am not absolutely sure, but maybe all these people will one day see us as privileged people who did not share their 'secret' with them.

Nostrcheck-server supports all types of multimedia files. From the administration panel you can review the media files uploaded by users. The server has tools to control what has already been reviewed and what has not yet been reviewed.

Audio, video, images.

A new server is available to upload your multimedia files, ask the developer of your favorite nostr client to implement NIP96!

Say hello to nostpic.com !! 🥳🥳 from nostr:npub1vd9ar8jusldjze24eq2tlz8xdt8pwkq99ydxh6gtzkkrkgj8m2dsndwen9

https://github.com/quentintaranpino/NIP96-compatible-servers


It looks very good, could you create a PR to the 0.5.0 branch?

Also if you can raise the node version to >=20 it would be perfect, the new version uses node20.

Thanks a lot for the PR, we will add it to 0.5.0 so everyone can use it with docker from now on!


Wow thank you. I'll take a look at it!!

I definitely need testers, everyone is welcome in the project. It's FOSS, this project is not mine, it's everybody's project.


nostrcheckme was born in PHP, but since April last year it uses this backend in TS:

https://github.com/quentintaranpino/nostrcheck-api-ts/

It has a very extensive api, it also allows user registrations by sending a nostr note with an authorization header, viewing, editing, adding, deleting multimedia, etc.

This is  what I am working on 100% right now.


Yes, it's a very good idea. I will create it :)


Done 😊

https://github.com/quentintaranpino/NIP96-compatible-servers


I'm going to do my best to make it this week. But upgrading from 0.4.2 to 0.5.0 will be easy.


Yes!! Sorry I didn't send you the link 😅😅


Definitely yes, as soon as 0.5.0 is finished, version 6 starts with docker, frontend for registrations, public gallery, etc. (0.5.0 enables an administration frontend, I'm talking about a frontend for users).
Also tor and other super secret new features.

With version 0.6.0 basically all nostrcheckme will be 100% installable and replicable by anyone, then as soon as there are several consistent instances running and competing, nostrcheckme will be pushed aside. (It will not disappear, but maybe I will disable new user registrations, and encourage the use of as many other servers as possible).

It will remain as a snapshot of nostr's early years) 💜


I am going to make a guide for new installations and another one for upgrading from 0.4.2 😀


It's very easy, visit the github and copy the installation script. If you want we can do it together. It takes 5 minutes!


This server is being hosted by them 😍

This is exactly what I always imagined, a multitude of server instances spread around the world.

imksoo do you want to add your server to the NIP96 enabled servers list that I have in github?

In a few days I will release version 0.5.0 with a trillion of new features 😎

Yarr! Yesterday was demo day here at SEC-01 and I presented my proposal for identity management in nostr. In it I introduce some new concepts for identity management such as secure identities and simple identities, master keypair and subkeys (this will allow cold storage).
This was a research exercise in which I studied the previous proposals that have been presented and how gpg (a battle-tested protocol) achieves its robustness. I've based it mainly on nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft proposal, extending it and trying to take the best of all of them and make something that makes sense for nostr, prioritising simplicity and backwards compatibility.
Please take a moment to read the proposal and share your ideas/criticism, this is something super important for nostr as having a more robust identity system will better preserve the value that content creators, companies and users in general can create and ultimately have a richer and more valuable network where everyone can maintain the value, reputation and web of trust that it creates.

Good morning #nostr 💜 I think we have to accept opinions that are not aligned with the current echo chamber.

Nostr is freedom, let everyone do what they want, but we must also be prepared to listen to dissenting opinions.

Do you want to know mine? It seems reasonable to me that nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s should try to get ahead and feed his family in the best way he can think of. On the other hand it seems wrong that some don't accept that not everyone should agree with Will's path to #damus.

I have paid, not for the damn badge, but because that's what I would like others to do with my projects when they are useful for them.

Morning thoughts.


Ok, Everybody wants Amethyst Purple now. But hold your horses.

I want to first try a release-based donation model that goes straight to the devs/designers/translators who helped in that specific release. It's similar to what we do today in my release notes where your zap splits go straight to the devs.

The goal of the model is to align the right incentives with the finances: we only get paid when we have something new. If we don't ship, nobody gets anything. That will keep the wheels turning and avoid the usual product stagnation.

On top of that, I don't want to make Amethyst a company. At least not yet. Companies are too centralized and complicated for my current taste. I want to see if we can stay as a humble open-source project while collecting the same amounts a company would but through your direct payments/donations to what would have otherwise been employees.

Basically, an extreme version of value 4 value.

We will see if the idea works. It's still early and we already collect a good amount per month (~$1700/mo combined). So, it should be possible. Fingers crossed.


Good night! 😀

🕵♂Privacy on 🦩Nostr 🔀 Relays / Image📷CDN servers (if/when that matters 2some)
Same as in normal clearnet internet means all exit public IPs (isp/vpn/tor) will be IN 📋service log (Relay Admins / Image server admin only can access)
Relays logs "npubs" has ability to correlate them active "logged IPs" to read/write request from npubs

All NOSTR content TEXT are in clear text not encrypted except DM content as nostr is transparent text based protocol.

Any user can read any other npub's relay list, followings/contacts, public lists.

I think v4v is definitely the most natural way for us to interact with each other. I believe that the bulk of the population still lacks the right tools. There are too few of us still using LN and nostr to draw conclusions.


Good morning 😃


Lots of encouragement, Sarah


Yep 😀


I am in a similar situation, I bet everything on V4V and for the moment it is not sustainable. I also think that the difficult road leads to success, so I will also continue to bet on it at least for a while longer 💪💪


Woow good morning 🥰🥰😀


Good morning and nice to meet you 😀


Beautiful words. Nice to meet you and have a great day Duncan 😀

Good morning Paulo 😀


My principles.

I follow anyone who spends their time to respond to one of my notes (except trolls and rude people 🤣) To me that's called respect.

Morning thoughts 😀☕🫂💜


Good night 🙃🙂


It is not usable for the vast majority, we already have the solution (NIP96), we must promote it.


We cannot specify a custom URL, that's what I mean. The NIP96 spec encourages the use of custom url's and clients don't implement it that way (Amethyst is the only one).

https://nostrcheck.me/media/quentin/351b61bb2be5f5f852eb8871e808342f68feecb87d209242628332e4ca89fa4b.webp


The biggest attack vector that Nostr has is the centralization in the file hosting servers.

There is already NIP96 and several easily installable servers, why are there clients that still don't allow you to choose the server you want? I have seen some clients that implement NIP96 but they only allow you to select from a closed list 🤷♂

The spec is there, and if someone wants to see how to implement it in a client check the Coracle code where hodlbot gave me the opportunity to implement it as it should be, open and leaving free choice to the user.

We can't judge them from the perspective of now. In 2016 if I'm not mistaken BTC was around 300-600$, they made a "correct" decision pondering it in the short term (very short term 🤣)


I’m so sorry 😞

A NEW WAY TO CONNECT - COMING SOON

Empowering collaborative knowledge sharing and discussing web content freely

Why it matters?:

While the Web is expansive, apart from social media, individuals are isolated and disconnected.

Envision a scenario where we integrate a social layer directly onto every website, fostering connections.

Here, people can effortlessly exchange knowledge, pose questions, and engage in discussions with one another about that website/topic.

How it works?:

- Install the browser extension, an app icon displayed on every web page.

- Open app to initiate discussions with others.

- Share questions, express your viewpoints, or explore what others are saying.

- Easily toggle between page view and domain view. Read posts across all pages in the same domain or focus on this specific page.

Seeking assistance with:

Name of the app (extension). Any suggestions or recommendations are appreciated!

When a storm is approaching, or when you are caught in the middle of one, there isn’t any sense in flailing about. Instead, be still, be quiet, and let it pass over you. Don’t fight it, as it is much stronger than you. It’s best to embrace it and let it wash over you.

Good morning 😀☕


I bought this beauty and installed NerdMiner on it. I have already ordered a few to hand out to some friends 😍

https://nostrcheck.me/media/quentin/75de7b5da597b03948488a726b9a1e92c7456c4ca1940b3c44eb78653dbde6e1.mp4

It's a nice way to explain to someone how to mine BTC 🤓


Doing a maintenance work on the nostr.build servers. It shouldn’t affect normal operations of the servers, but if it does, let me know. 🐶🐾🫡


Interesting, followed! 😀


Good night 😀


Very very micro-decentralizing 😂😂

But yes, all of us must have some kind of mining power in our houses


It's wonderful, I'm going to print some 3d box today 🤓


I will investigate if it exists, I have no idea.


It has more computational capacity and its orientation is different (the name itself indicates it). The board that I have shown will never mine any block 🤣, the one in the link is another level, but I would say (I am not an expert at all) that you will never even get to amortize it.


Yep. But only low difficult shared pools


Good morning ☕💜💪😀


It's a soloMiner, I think the universe will end before someone finds a single block with this 😂😂😂

It's like playing the lottery, if you get it, you win a whole block. But don't expect to ever get hit.

I see it as a fun way to participate in mining with some KH/s.


Good night 😴


Amazon, and about 35-40€ (LILYGO T-Display S3)

You can purchase any of the boards supported by the software:

The best selling android phone in 2023 was the samsung galaxy a14, its only $147 on amazon right now, but many times you can get it even cheaper or even for free on many phone plans. This is incredible!

Going to optimize damus android for the cheapest phones and the lowest bandwidth conditions. We need to be optimizing for people with limited data plans. negentropy v1 is going to be vital for this, which is why I’m so excited for it. Many of these same optimizations will be in damus iOS and notedeck as well thanks to #nostrdb.

Billions of people have yet to be onboarded onto freedom tech. 2024 is going to be an exciting year for nostr: More clients, more use cases, more algorithms, more choice, more freedom. Lets get to work 🫡


Today is a great day, bravo 🥳

Miss me with that victim shit


Lightning usage is growing, and while it may be far from perfect and might not have some of the mass adoption we would have wanted by now, the superior payment technology will win out. Nothing comes close when it comes to instant payments derived directly from the base chain.

The use cases that Lightning facilitates are much more than just one person paying another. E-commerce, tipping, automation, and services benefit from what Lightning offers. However, the sad truth is that there are still many missing pieces to solve to reach its true potential as a self-custodial privacy-preserving instant payment network.

I'll review some problems and the solutions to them, both for the Lightning ecosystem and what we're doing about it at Mutiny. If we can work around some of today's pain points, we can unlock the full potential of the internet's native currency.
Lightning usability

I aim to make self-custody for Lightning easy for as many use cases as possible. I want to do all this while preserving as much privacy as possible for users. One of the biggest downfalls of Bitcoin has been the need for more privacy. However, Lightning can fix this if done correctly. One of the beautiful things about Lightning is that we have essentially built a Tor Network on top of Bitcoin. The problem is that there are far too many gotcha's in it to pitch it that way. If we fix privacy on top of Bitcoin & Lightning, we must make it easy for people from start to finish. One of the first steps is to move off of custodians.

Custodian usage dominates the Lightning ecosystem today. It's one thing to say that everyone should self-custody on-chain Bitcoin. Yet, the complexities involved in Lightning make it that much harder to apply or suggest to others. It's hard to blame people. It is difficult for wallets, application devs, and general users.

Let's examine why custodial Lightning solutions exist and which applications become custodial. I want to make the argument that we can do better and we can replace that. Now can we always be perfect? Absolutely not. But when have we as a community given up and said, "Well, I guess I'll just recommend a custodial solution. We have no other choice. It is just too hard."
Wallets

One example of dominating custodian usage is wallets themselves. There are a few great self-custodial Lightning wallets like Pheonix and Breez, and I hope we can one day make Mutiny into that class of wallets. But why are they not recommended sometimes? I feel that it is due to two things. The online nature that Lightning requires and the fees associated with opening channels.

For receiving payments, being online is a non-starter for many use cases. You can't expect someone to keep the app open while someone is paying you. You also can't expect them to manually create an invoice and copy-paste it to someone else on the internet every time they want to receive money. It can't be global money if half of the world wants to do commerce while you're asleep. This is one area where custodial lightning wallets thrive because they are run by businesses that specialize in keeping their lightning node(s) online. Sure, someone can run their own server with a node, but that won't be a solution for the world.

A protocol specification called Async Payments will allow for a simulated offline receive scenario, but that may still be 6 to 12 months away. Afterward, many of the problems around offline payments will go away.

The other aspect of fees and opening channels is also something custodial lightning wallets can avoid exposing to users. Many users can use all the Lightning channels a custodian has. However, with self-custodial Lightning, it's a one-to-one relationship. Opening a channel for each user will one day be a non-starter. But can we do better? I believe so.
Federated Wallets

One of the exciting things I want to do when feasible is to incorporate Fedimint into Mutiny so that any user can get started with Lightning at any amount. If it's a small payment or a new bitcoiner with only a handful of sats, opening a channel does not make sense. They won't have any money left over even if they did. If a user kept that in a federation (multi-sig for custodians), it would allow for greater security than trusting a single actor while supporting lower amounts. Once a user has enough funds on the Fedimint, they should transfer that to a self-custodial wallet.

In practice, I believe it is the minority of people who move on to a self-custodial wallet. How often do you hear the excuse that bitcoiners make when they onboard a user to a custodial Lightning wallet but say they will "come back later and inform the user about self-custody"? That's the biggest lie bitcoiners tell themselves when it is called out. No, you don't return to that coffee shop you visited once on vacation to educate them about self-custody. Sorry but nobody is buying that. Is it a good thing you got them on Bitcoin? Probably. But at what cost? Will you inform them what happens when the custodian inevitably goes away? Are you aware of how many custodial Lightning wallets have shut down?

Combining Fedimint & self-custodial into the same app would be a game changer. Federated custodianship for small amounts and onboarding, then in-app prompts to upgrade them to self-custodianship while maintaining the same UX they were onboarded to in the first place. No need to go back and migrate new users to an entirely different wallet. No confusion around the nuances the user has gotten acquainted with.
Applications

Now what about general consumer applications? Well, there are a lot of apps out there that are or can be Lightning native. Think Stacker News, a Hacker News clone with sats as the upvote mechanism. Or Value-4-Value applications like Podcasting 2.0, where you stream sats to a podcaster as you listen to them. For sending sats, none of these have to be custodial. Breez even supports self-custodial payments to a podcaster as you listen to the podcast in the wallet.

However, there's currently no other easy option besides custodial for receiving sats. This goes back to the offline receive problem. Because Stacker News allows upvotes to go to the post author, it has to either be custodial or require each stacker news author to run an always-online lightning node and provide invoice macaroons with an exposed IP address for someone to upvote them. If there's a hiccup or the author's node goes offline, the ability to upvote disappears. Degrading the experience for all users. This will inevitably cause Stacker News users to move to other third-party custodians anyways, defeating the purpose of trying to make it self-custodial and ending up with a worse experience.

And suppose it will be custodial for authors to get upvoted. What's the extra step in making it custodial for senders as well? It turns the application into a custodian and money transmitter simply because they want to allow sats to be the upvotes. You might say, "Don't put too much on there," but it doesn't absolve them of their legal requirements and risks. It's not just Stacker News, either. That's every application wanting to offer their users non-custodial receives and frictionless spending. They should not have to be a custodian to ship a new lightning-native app.
Built-in Lightning

So how do we do better? We make it so Lightning can run anywhere because Lightning should be everywhere!

Part of the reasoning for Mutiny running on the web was to get around app store censorship, which will get worse over time, not better. People have theories about how it'll end up, but until things change, it has only gotten worse.

The other reason is that if we can get a Lightning node to run on the web, we can argue that Lightning can run anywhere. In fact, it only took 5 days for me to build the Android version, and I mostly did that with some spare time at night. Should you store your life savings on the web app version? Absolutely not. But can we be better than custodial? Yes, from both a privacy perspective and ease of onboarding. We can even inform users to move to the mobile apps after they acquired enough sats.

We built the web wallet specifically to dogfood our own node implementation, called mutiny-node, which can run anywhere. So any web app or native mobile app dev can import it into their application to take their hands hands off user funds. If we can solve the offline receive problem, and incorporate federations for smaller amounts with the same UX and API calls, then applications can truly flourish. You shouldn't need to be a lightning dev to incorporate Lightning, and you shouldn't need to be a bank to include it, either.

There are many ways it can play out, but I think one of the end goals is to have a single "login" with just twelve words to access your funds. You may want to manage your wallet and funds on the Mutiny mobile app. Still, when you want to link your non-custodial wallet to a website like Stacker News, you can get the same exact balance and Lightning state there. We recently incorporated Versioned Storage Service (VSS) as an encrypted data store that can restore your lightning state with just your seed words, making the restore process simple.

I acknowledge that restoring seed words onto just any site is a bad practice. Still, Mutiny specializes in being a spending wallet, not a life savings wallet. If you're worried about how much is on there and what might happen if you restored your seed words on a bad site, then you've put too much on there for how you use it. Mutiny is also a lightning-first wallet. All lightning wallets are hot, so if you're putting too much on a hot wallet in the first place or have a problem with it being treated as hot, you need to reevaluate what you know about Lightning and what standards to compare it with.

The alternative here is to have multiple Mutiny wallets. It's just seed words that power the wallet's identity, authentication, encryption, and funds. So if you don't want to risk the funds from the Mutiny Wallet mobile app, create a new wallet for each app you interact with and deposit sats as you go.

This removes applications from being a custodian while having a better risk model than before, where you were logging into your wallet (or application's wallet) with an email and password to access your funds. In the future, Validating Lightning Signer (VLS) is something we could incorporate to keep the keys off of the user's device or browser too.

And topping up all the application wallets you may have should also be seamless. We support Just-In-Time channels that create a lightning channel for you whenever needed. So a brand new wallet (or new account on a lightning-enabled app) should be able to receive their first lightning deposit within seconds of creating it.
AI Use Cases

There's also the evolution of AI that could benefit from this. Just like you wouldn't put your life savings on a hot lightning wallet, you also need to limit how much you would give to any automation / AI tool. An easy-to-use self-custodial lightning wallet that can run anywhere is a perfect tool for developers building in automation.

The L402 (formerly LSAT) specification that allows for an HTTP protocol using error code 402 to communicate when a payment needs to be made to access resources could use this. This can be used in many settings, but one of them is allowing more web automation and monetizing resources as you go. Bots can now be "paying users" instead of huge resource consumptions.

One advantage of using our SDK is that you can build the wallet straight into your AI application. We develop our SDK in Rust and compile it for web assembly. It has pretty good support across many languages, including Python. There is no need to spin up an LND node, expose ports, build in Python GPRC bindings, and manage an entire node just for the small amounts of funds you want your app to access.

For two, you can send funds to it as you go. Keep your lightning funds secured elsewhere and top up this specific AI. Is your bot not behaving correctly? Stop feeding it sats. Has it been successful in its job? Pay it right from your mobile lightning wallet to keep it going.

Or better yet, let it request more straight from your main wallet when empty! It's a tangent for another day, but Mutiny has built-in payment requests. You can give out a specific "API key" that allows others to request funds from you that you have to approve, revocable at any time. We use the protocol called "Nostr Wallet Connect" for this. We're testing this out with the concept of "subscriptions" on Lightning and for sending tips on nostr (zaps). There are many more use cases, like digital purchases or topping up other wallets or services.
Everywhere

Lightning could not be everywhere before, at least in a non-custodial way. The main challenges are:

    Offline receives
    Instant onboarding (even for small amounts)
    Easy-to-use SDKs for developers
    A wallet/node that can run on any environment
    Instant onboarding
    Protocol for payments

However, these things are being solved right now. So what will it look like to have Lightning everywhere?

My dream is that every site has Lightning. New user account, new lightning wallet. Top up as you go, or bring an existing wallet if you already have one. Reward users directly for actions taken inside the site (could be a game or p2p rewards), then they can turn around and spend those sats within the site. Lightning knowledge or setup doesn't have to be a prereq. It can look like in-site points.

We already see this "points" system EVERYWHERE, which the world has figured out. Starbucks Stars, Airline Miles, Twitch Bits, etc. Bitcoin isn't the problem here. Onboarding is. If everyone had to sign up for an exchange with KYC info, then wait for approval, link a bank account, wait 3 - 5 days, then download a separate wallet on their mobile phone that they have to switch to any time they want to spend their Starbucks points, then change back to the Starbucks app to complete the order, it would NEVER HAPPEN. The key is to build it straight in, which all these wildly successful companies have done.

And when you have "points" that can be transferred or used for purchases, the circular economy can be born from this. The Nostr ecosystem is the closest to figuring this out. New users are coming in, getting tipped in sats, and turning around to spend it on paid-only relays or tips for other new users. This is the adoption we want, and it's already happening. The problem is it's happening with custodians. Self-custody is seldom the case. All the income, spending, and behavior are being monitored, in addition to the risk of rug pulls or seizures.

After Lightning is incorporated into sites, you can start integrating Lightning into APIs. A single website owner doesn't need to be the provider of the APIs either. We can begin making API requests across domains and allowing the 402 payment-required response to prompt the user to make the payment (or automate it). 402 can remove the identity from the resource consumption too. So no need to have accounts across the entire internet to use a one-off functionality.

What would websites look like if they were more modular, pulling in premium resources or services from a configurable collection of paid-only one-off APIs from any third-party providers? All without website operators needing to custody user funds or maintain all those services themselves.

There has never been much modularity in HTTP APIs because there has not been much monetary incentive to either maintain third-party APIs or integrate with billing systems and expose that to the user directly. Frontend-only websites can prosper with significantly less upfront costs and full-stack expertise.
Conclusion

Lightning on consumer websites, service APIs, and even hardware devices to protect the user keys even further. This is all possible. We have to keep pushing toward it, which is what I'm doing here.

Suppose Lightning is going to be the instant payment network of the internet. In that case, it must be capable of running anywhere to support endless applications. It should be easy for devs to utilize and not require them to be a custodian. Preserving the user's privacy is important as well. We can keep using custodians, or we can put the power into the user's hands. Which side of this do you want to be on?

Good night 🤓😀


Good morning!


Strange that someone like Snowden is not publishing on nostr. It makes me wonder if we are doing things right.


Take care of you and your loved ones, self custody your sats, defend your private property.

The rest is noise


Good morning 😀


Saturday 05:00am, my kids wake me up screaming and fighting in the living room for a toy 🥱

Monday 07:30am, still sleeping 😤😅

Good morning #nostr!! 😀💜


Good morning 😃 I owe you an answer in our conversations. I remember you magic Internet doggy 💜


Good morning from Spain 😀


Pura Vida mr. Jack 😀🏴☠


Good morning 🙂


Merci beaucoup, bonne journée 😀


I am really a bit disconnected. The end of the year in my fiat mine is always more demanding. I am very glad to hear from you nostr:npub1el3mgvtdjpfntdkwq446pmprpdv85v6rs85zh7dq9gvy7tgx37xs2kl27r 😀


Good morning #nostr 💜


Don't just do backups. Think through failure modes. Here are some examples to think through:

BAD: I accidentally deleted a directory and lost several months of work.  RAID immediately mirrored the delete!  Shit I thought RAID would protect me.
GOOD: use zfs or btrfs and take snapshots.

BAD: I've been backing up to a NAS but then I got cryptolockered, and they got into the NAS and cryptolockered that too!
GOOD: disconnect your backup system from the network when it is not running backups.

BAD: I've been making offline backups, but also defying the government. They came and raided the house and took my computers AND the backups.
GOOD: take backups offsite.

BAD: I took my backups offsite to a friends house, but we got into a fight. Now I have no backups.
GOOD: I treat my friends very well.

BAD: I took my backups offsite to a friends house, but it turned out he was an FBI agent.
GOOD: I shake down all my friends, and put them through torture sessions to extract all useful information before I trust them.

Dark gray, cold, ashy, ruinous

A purple flower, fragile, hope.

An orange sunrise, warm, birth, life.

A future, uncertain, disturbing, promising.


Just launched a crowdfunding page on nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9  https://geyser.fund/project/lightningnoderebuild

If you feel like it, please donate. The new node is happening regardless of donations, but I thought it’s better that it’s official, instead of zaps 🐶🐾🫂🫡
