You need another step in between to transfer from the XMR address to a different XMR address, then swap that to lightning that's now unlinked to your Nostr account.
Yes. It's less than a cent. You can transfer multiple times if you're paranoid. It seems like most users here don't care to hide their transactions. But who wants the store owner to know their online persona?
Simplex when you want 1-on-1 comm on burners (for you never 😁)
Signal if you don't trust WhatsApp. Good luck getting people to switch.
Nostr for talking to people you don't know IRL about bitcoin
The financial crisis created a culture of distrust in the banking system.
Monero, and privacy coins in general, don't really matter because most people don't use crypto as electronic cash, but a number go up digital collectible.
Hahaha. 1M satoshi is under 200 USD. You'll need at least $50K to get anything done in a reasonable timeframe.
You can't write software and you can't pay to get it written. Your project is dead on arrival.
Best you can do with $200 is to spend it on a good LLM and try to DIY.
It'd be cool to make a discord like interface for Nostr. I can give you a high level overview of what needs to be done. It's too boring to do the web front end though. Turn tags into channels. This will make filtering a lot easier. With thousands of private relays, it will be impossible to shut down. This design makes private relays more appealing.
If everyone has a relay, then you just connect to 100 people you like. Aggregate 100 connections into messages, and display. Easy search and file sharing. All replays are also stealth tor nodes.
It will be too complicated for 95% of users. So a good test like cicada.
Without the American military funding you wouldn't have Tor, SELinux, maybe even TCP/IP. I don't wanna bother translating, can everyone use English? It's the language of the Internet.
Nostr isn't that great of a protocol if you want simplicity. SSH is much better, you can use RSA for signing and encryption.
Who's gonna use your relay though? It's all about the user demographic.
It must be mandatory to prevent people from using DNS, so they get used to an onion hash to talk to your relay. Even with 20 people, it will be a very fun app. Wild west.
SSH makes it easy to authenticate, gives you a choice of both RSA and EC. Got easy file transfer. You can sync with other users easily. 100 people put a bunch of files together, and broadcast the descriptions, so you can search easily. Movies, music, books. Can be any language, but I like English 😁. Life's too short to listen to people complain in other languages.
There are good people in the military too. Why do you care so much?
I don't get your goal. My approach is just to have a cypherpunk style mailing list but for files. Just need enough people to participate to make it interesting. The learning curve is quite high, people hate a text only app. So there'll be 5 folks in the beginning from all Nostr.
Most join the military to get a free degree. Many nerds work for the military cause they're the only ones who have the funds for cutting edge vision or energy projects. They're ordinary humans who want a job, and aren't actively evil.
