big news! boltz.exchange just launched lightning <> rootstock bitcoin atomic swaps
now its incredibly easy to get into rootstock and work with smart contract platforms

why are websockets better for fetching nostr notes than http reqs?
somebody said interactivity but most of the time users are just passive consumers
#devstr #asknostr
i have this feeling that websockets are too expensive compared to the benefit they give for a chat app
but i havent tested it yet, like what would be the scalability issues with serving million users via http polling vs wss

really bad take. because this implies desire to have immutable thing. but nostr doesnt provide such thing. you cant rely on on relays not lying to you. i mean how many clients verify signatures.
and even if they did, relays can also NOT SHOW you some stuff. not even lying per se. they can just not show edits
litecoin is great for shopping for huge items on eshops that have crypto payment gateway
> fast blocks (2.5min)
> no address reuse (eth, solana, tron)
> dirt cheap (<$0.01)
> no need to worry about channel capacity and routing fees
and going eth tokens/monero —> litecoin for purchase is a great strategy
id urge you to consider experimenting with other cryptos if they cant solve your specific problem better than bitcoin (not talking about sound money)
dogma and religion isnt productive.
somebody knowledgable about #DATUM and @OCEAN mining pool, please
so DATUM makes it so that each individual miner can select which transactions get into the box
OCEAN is as a pool against ordinals inscriptions and Runes
but DATUM should prevent censorship from pool's side, so if miner using DATUM decides to include ordinals, will @OCEAN censor it and go DIRECTLY AGAINST their own supposed censorship-resistance mining protocol?
somebody should probably make relay aggregator service
like it has predefined set of relays and fetches on the backend and provides simple network traffic to clients
sure this leads to centralization but lots of different people could do it
fetching from 10 relays at the same time and using websockets feels inefficient
*** and this isnt what @primal 's caching relay does really.
iirc it just caches the results that you have already gotten from different wss-based relays.
wouldnt http requests be more efficient than websockets??
like websites have long before this figured out how to use graphql for exotic queries and most of those aren't even that special for nostr clients, like GET 20 posts for your feed from couple of relays
WSS are really weird for me in this context
can somebody more experienced explain please?
algos are imporant, but they need to serve you
theres so much data available that you need some sort of sorting and personalization because you dont want to look at uninteresting garbage
but you have to take step further in your thinking and not just repeat shit u read on the internet
it feels kind of crazy that you can have 30k followers on nostr
my subconscious still feels that this is too much of an underground thing to do these numbers
hey @Proton Wallet could you please enable "custom feerate" when sending a tx?
sometimes the priority isn't even at 'low" and i'm forced to overpay, thanks
i made this simple http server that let's you make GET requests for npub from relay and it will return those notes to you.
sometimes you cannot import nostr packages or use websocket connections, that's when http server is useful

hey #nostriches ! 🦄
I've just opened a new PR to the nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wvfskuep0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpr3mhxue69uhksmmyd33x7epwvdhhyctrd3jjuar0dak8xtcpr3mhxue69uhhg6r9vd5hgctyv4kzumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcqyz8vs6kfuyyhnxvx2grgae4sqg3m3cext24m8l3gld4nkm3fftwfv5u9z2k repo, that adds option to share calendar events of a specific npub!
this should be really helpful for sharing your own, or someone else's events in the calendar, you could now do it on "/events/people/npub:" path!
We at nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qg3waehxw309ahx7um5wgh8w6twv5hszxthwden5te0wfjkccte9eekummjwsh8xmmrd9skctcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnvv9hxgtcqyqhnt37u59eq7m28y4xjxnxvpkeqtuacqfct7vdwdcv7j9ew5sxq2hhdy0v are really looking forward for this to be merged 🙌

i couldnt find service that would send notifications about AAVE (defi lending protocol) positions for my account, so i've made a bot that queries blockchain and sends messages through matrix protocol
as of now, you need to self-host it and it works only for Arbitrum L2

once u get bitcoin, the next step is learning how to do your finance in true cryptoanarchy fashion using permissionless defi protocols instead of banks
