We're happy to announce Mutiny Wallet is now available on iOS and Android!

https://m.primal.net/HiNL.jpg

In addition to the existing PWA, you can now get the same great Mutiny experience in native app form directly from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

We built Mutiny to be unstoppable. To do that, we knew we had to build it first for the web, without the censorship of permissioned app stores. Today, anyone can visit app.mutinywallet.com and get a self-custodial lightning wallet that can't be shut down by Apple or Google.

We have had the Android APK available to download for awhile, but starting today you may get it directly from the Google Play Store or using Obtainium on our Github. Here is the Play link:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mutinywallet.mutinywallet

The testflight has been out for awhile too, exclusive to our Mutiny+ users. Now available to all is our iOS Apple Store release.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mutiny-wallet/id6471030760

We have a lot of new features planned for Mutiny Wallet in the coming months (for all platforms), so stay tuned as we work to make Mutiny more social, more powerful, and even easier to use.

if you want to help shape Mutiny's future, please join our new Discord server or Matrix community. We want to build the best spending wallet in bitcoin and your feedback can help us get there.

Nostpy v0.8 released! 🎉🥳

Were moving now, and I am very interested in continuing to work with other relay/client devs to improve relay search functionality. Holla if you're trying to hack on this.

https://image.nostr.build/ae5f947632a48be2bba69dd8b782b83a9de4487b873d9115349c2f97a93afb29.png

NIP 50 search is working on Nostpy for searching content and tags fields, should have added this a long time ago

https://media.nostr.build/av/eedf53d9a967ee10f95fd8eb07ef9e198af6803fd156362cb845722d640e0813.webm


Is there a list of clients that support NIP-50? I have come across a few that seem to be building the query client side rather than sending something like: { "search": "orange" }.

Testing some search functionality on my relay, it's working from the command line client I made but want to test with real clients before releasing.


New focus for next release of Nostpy, supporting NIP-50 search capability for kind 30402 classified listings by searching tags column

Feel free to join in if you have any ideas/suggestions!

Took me a while to get around to this finally refactored nostpy to remove SQLalchemy and just use async psycopg3. Major improvement to the memory footprint and the new query logic provides much more control over the queries I'm using.

But... I have so much cleaning up to do, this dev branch looks like I wrote it on a bar napkin 🥴

Gm https://i.nostr.build/5MAB.png


Now that I am accepting zaps to my own lightning node, need to build this son of a gun back up and make it more reachable. I'm glad I use some LSP's as well because I've been having some payment issues this morning and they certainly helped move things along.

For those considering running their own node, I highly recommend it. However, it's essential to be mindful of the trade-offs involved. Additionally, having alternative payment methods in place is crucial to navigate any potential issues smoothly.


Good to know, I'm assuming NIP-65 replaced that practice? I'm noticing a lot of clients are still sending the relay list in the kind 3 but probably just for backwards compatibility I'm assuming.


Thank you! will follow along here


Wrote a script to seek out old/problematic versions of a kind 3 contact list and so far have found about 25 relays that are storing versions of a contact list with an empty relay section and even more that are storing a very old version of my contact list. This could very likely be the cause of the weird relay behavior I recently experienced on Damus.

Need to keep plugging away and figure out what is going on here and see if I can track this down to a particular client.

https://image.nostr.build/dbdf8c5f16b8aff8afbbffa687d244e76a8f2b6fbbf5a4fd984a741a660f142d.png


I am using Snort, Coracle, Primal, noStrudel at the moment. I may have signed into some specialty clients as well like Yakihonne or Listr recently as well.

I just wrote a script that pulls down my contact list from any discovered online relays and trying to do a bit of investigation of my own as it seems to be working fine for everyone else.


Yeah I just added a few back manually, hopefully they will stay put 🤞. I am also going to do bit of hunting to see if any relays are holding onto an old/corrupted contact list as this happened twice this week.


Yeah I am wondering if there are conflicting versions of my contact list floating around or something, last time this happened it was a buggy client that wiped my contact list and broadcast it but my other clients seem to be working without issue.


My relays keep disappearing from Damus, all of them. Sometimes this is fixed by signing out then back in, the 4 bootstrap relays will appear, then a few hours later back to 0 relays?

This happening to anyone else? I'm using several other clients and they don't seem to be experiencing the same behavior.


I have done that on nodes in the past. I have a semi working wireguard setup script that sets up both the client and the server. Might try to tweak that and the documentation a bit to make it work with this.


Long overdue, but I made a simple, easy to setup NIP-57 server to serve LN invoices and accept Zaps to your Lightning node running on Tor.

This is just one of many non-custodial solutions available for receiving zaps on nostr, that comes with some trade-offs listed in the documentation. This is more geared towards tinkerers who already run a node at home and are comfortable/interested running a separate server, this can be run on a $5 a month VPS. I encourage anyone who is interested to try it out and provide feedback.

Happy zapping! ⚡⚡⚡⚡

https://image.nostr.build/057a9005fd8b1669fd179057f47ad91fe52d619f9691f6a6df9fd36935d77c70.jpg

https://github.com/UTXOnly/zap_server


For those following along, this was resolved by adding "allowsNostr" in the response in the LUD-16 verification response from the LNURL server.

Pushing the repo tonight and writing up some docs right now 🤙🏼


Thanks for testing, it def isn't that well of a connected node but I'm glad to hear you were able to generate an invoice at least, that was the real problem I was trying to get past.


Thanks man!

I think the bottleneck here is likely fetching the invoice. It's like the perfect storm of slow a Python flask server requesting an invoice from a tor node on a raspberry Pi.

Need to do some more investigating to see if there is anything I can do to speed this up a bit or experiment with clearnet.


Are you able to generate a Zap invoice for this note?

I have made a LUD-16 identifier and a LNURL server to accept zaps on my own node. This is working without issue on Snort but the zap button is grayed out on other clients.

I can see in my server logs that the other clients are reaching the LNURL server, server returns a 200 response along with the proper callback URL but can't seem to even request an invoice from the LNURL server or attempt to generate one in the nostr client for that matter.

Do other clients handle zaps/requesting invoices differently?

About to go digging through some repos as I haven't found anything useful in console logs, but wanted to see if I am missing a well known limitation or something?


Good news is, I have this working right now. Just zapped myself from snort.

Now I need to do a good bit of cleanup and write the doc, hope to have this done by tonight and will DM you when its ready to test!


I will be sure to write one and post the repo when I get this working 100%

I already tested on a sandbox API I made with a flask server, but can't merge the adapter I wrote until I have passing unit tests 😐

For me Kratom became super addictive, I went through mild opiate like withdrawals with extreme night sweats and unbearable restless leg syndrome coming off it but I was taking the extracts.


Hell yes bro, what a guy!


Currently interviewing for an internal position at my company.

After changing me seat in the office, I realize that there’s 100x more people taxing water taxis than I could have imagined.

I’m totally here for it.


writing adapters ⌨


Jet lagged AF

Wish I left myself a day or two to adjust but hitting the ground running here and embedding with a new engineering team for a month starting today.

Hopefully will not be stuck on stupid for more than a few days 🤞🏼


I write a relay that works on Ubuntu and has a CLI if you're interested in trying. It is fairly easy to edit and learn from, still working on a number of features but it is stable.

What an amazing first visit to Japan (and Asia in general), I will definitely be back in the near future to explore the north and west side of the country. Will also come prepared speaking more than 10 words of Japanese.

Leaving this trip rested, motivated and inspired.

A special thank you to all the nostr:npub1nstrcu63lzpjkz94djajuz2evrgu2psd66cwgc0gz0c0qazezx0q9urg5l organizers/volunteers and the hospitable Japanese nostriches who helped guide us along the way.

The Osaka street food tour continues.

Accidentally stumbled into a make your own okonomiyaki place, was just looking to buy some but my awesome server helped me make one…for a table of one 🤣

Takoyaki tastes 100x better when bought an eaten in the street.

Back on the prowl tomorrow for more kushikatsu, Kobe skewers and yakisoba

Can relay operators please stop sending me DMs with invoices? At least, it's find to send them once, but please stop sending them several times a day.


Thanks man, hope you’re enjoying the rest of your trip as well!


Had a good day, fed some very polite deer, explored some temples, marveled at an enormous Buddha statue.

This is living…


AOL chat rooms were 🔥


Japan cannot be understood, only experienced 🐶🐾🫡


That park was awesome, it was right around the corner from my hotel and I think I spent like 6 hours there.


I’m either going there for a bit tomorrow or going to head there from Osaka when I ship out for there in a few days.


I’m actually in Kyoto now but would have loved to meet up, I was staying In shinjuku!


Traditional Japanese beef curry. Not technically street food but I needed to sit down for a bit and it’s really rich.

Hope to see you soon!


It was, more on the way 🤙🏽


Kiyomizu-dera was my favorite (and everyone else's) . The architecture/views of the city are breathtaking and the road leading up to it is filled with traditional Japanese shops and plenty of street food. Also lots of people walking around dressed in Kimono which really added to the ambiance.

Sanjūsangen-dō was also incredible, although most of the interesting stuff like the 1000 statues is inside the temple and not able to be photographed, would highly recommend visiting here.

Shosei-en Garden was also very tranquil but you can tour the whole place in about 20 minutes even walking slowly.

The nice thing about Kyoto is these places are all within walking distance of each other and you will have a hard time finding a street without a temple on it!

Still have a few more days of adventuring and I'm sure I won't even hit 1/4 of the sites this city has to offer!


nostr:npub1ejvhdkt8ppefezgz0sgnwdqrn8l4z8muws2k8dz2tv0a57ac2z9st56q8x , the shojin ryori places near where I am were closed today, still on the prowl for yuba and heading to nishiki market tomorrow. Will update with food pics as things develop.

Other than that, think I had a pretty good first touch in Kyoto, got into some gyudon, shrimp/chicken tempura udon, octopus carpaccio,  urchin and salmon roe pacific oysters on the half shell (with sake of course) https://i.nostr.build/wX2l.jpg https://i.nostr.build/3neW.jpg https://i.nostr.build/yv7P.jpg https://i.nostr.build/vX2l.jpg

Damn wish I stayed in Tokyo a few more nights to rip it up with you boys!


Nope but still here for a week, if not, I’ll just have to come back 🤷🏻♂


What do you mean by not syncing with old activity?

Did you mount the container to a persistent volume?


Was awesome meeting and hanging out with you!

Have a safe trip home and will definitely keep in touch.


Kyoto is even more amazing than I imagined. I spent all day walking in parks and temples, feeling more relaxed than I have in a long time.

The pictures don’t capture the full experience but I am glad I have them as mementos. Couldn’t fit all 200, but these were a few of my favorites.

As with the Beefsteak.
When I want a specific feast, but I can’t find it anywhere.
I have to cook it.

Here's the Story:
Back in 2017, while in Copenhagen,  I ducked inside an old-school Danish restaurant that was packed to the gills to see what’s the hubbub.

At 2 PM on a Wednesday it was like a crossing over into a festival of herring delights.
Piles of Fish, pickles, bowls of lard, crispy pork, baskets of rye bread.
Every table was covered with food and snaps and surrounded by appetites and smiles.
A veritable viking feast with less ax and more dill.

What is this?!
It’s a Danish Christmas lunch.
OK we’re in.
Do you have a reservation?
I’m sorry you will have to try for next year.

oof.

But it helps to know a guy. I called an old-school chef friend who is connected and he was able to get us a table at that spot.

We sat DOWN around 12:30 PM and wobbled out at 5pm - which sounds like a long time until you learn that it’s been paired down from 12 days.
It was one of the most memorable meals of my life and I think of it every year around this time.

I  cant find a good Danish Christmas LUNCH anywhere, so I'm going to make one at nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h  on afternoon of Dec. 8th .

Lemme know if you want in.

Finally Kyoto bound on the Shinkansen 🚄 (in wet clothes)

A very well intentioned hotel employee  locked my clothes in a washing machine and then left with the combination and we couldn’t open it. 🤣

We finally tracked him down over and we’re able to get it open but what an adventure that was…


Was great seeing you man!


Wasn’t joking, they didn’t bring the spoon to another table that also ordered fried rice 🫨


I am so white that they brought me a soup spoon with my fried rice #blanconino 😔 https://i.nostr.build/Z9d8.jpg

translations in japanese on the slides would be sensational and way more inclusive 💜🤗


Zapped, thank you!


You can definitely build a relay with Python, this is just one implementation of that, they’re are a few others out there as well! I think it a really easy to use/audit and great for people that are looking to better understand how a relay works under the hood.

Gm, it’s time to make the donuts https://i.nostr.build/rlA2.jpg


I wish lol, I just left it. My office can’t handle the chronic 😒


I’m just out here stepping out on some crunchy bois 🍁on my way to work and stumbled upon this huge ass bag of weed.

Must be good shit…💨 https://v.nostr.build/V0Rd.mov


Have you not zapped nostr builders enough lately?

Here is a solution:
1. Go to https://nostrapp.link/repos
2. Find your favorite code repository.
3. Click on Zap icon.
4. Zap the repo contributors with one click.

Here is how it works:
1. Our script looks for github repos with 'nostr' tag and publishes them on Nostr as kind 30117 events.
2. It also looks through repo contributors on github and finds their matching pubkeys.
3. Contributor pubkeys are included in the repo event and zap splits are set up proportionally to the number of contributions.

If you are a developer and don't see yourself mentioned as a contributor, just add your npub somewhere in your github bio or "website url".

Our script will be updating the repo descriptions and contributors daily to keep it all up to date. Source: https://github.com/nostrband/nostr-github-bot

Have fun :)

P.S. I hope you can sense where this is going. One day, the nostr browser you might be using (ahem https://spring.site) will look at your app usage stats. It will then suggest you to support the apps, and if we connect apps to repos then those zaps could flow to the actual builders. Wouldn't that be nice?


Are there any kind of +1s things happening at Nostrasia? I'm trying to figure out how to help my wife feel like she's not going to be left out, she's very not interested in 1. software development, 2. social media, or 3. staying out late and partying.

It would be cool to find a couple ladies who'd like to go out and see Tokyo together with her in a low-key way.


Tell me you’re having a bad day after listening to this jam

…That’s right you can’t

Please be aware that our team will conduct a scheduled outage on our node and LSP, OLYMPUS by ZEUS, tonight at 12am Eastern Time (ET) to upgrade our systems and prepare us for our upcoming v0.8.0-beta1 release.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Will will advise when all services are restored.

Thank you.


I wish I had a workshop or a garage. Feeling the urge to tinker with something other than electronics for a change.

I miss the days of when I used to mod/work on my car and would end up with extra screws when I was finished putting it all back together and would have to start all over again 🥴


I now realize this is like a purple-orange ying-yang for nostr/bitcoin, but I'm gonna be honest, always thought this image was a tide pod 🤣


I'm a little confused.. and very well may be misunderstanding something here.

Currently working with AWS support to try and increase the # of concurrent Lambda executions I can have running in a particular region. My account limit is the default 1000 executions but later learned that each region has specific limits which can be as low as 10 concurrent executions and I need to apply for a request to increase that for each specific region I want to run in. Right now I have many functions in EU being throttled under VERY low volume.

What I am unclear on is why this limit is in place and so low for that matter? Anyone have more info on the rationale? Their docs and support dept don't really explain the WHY behind this.

Wouldn't you want to remove obstacles from your customers increasing usage and therefore revenue for the business?

So far their support has been responsive and helpful but this seems like a real PIA and preventing me from deploying to other regions like Asia/Pacific.


Your pics are giving me the motivation I need to get through this last week for work before vacation.

See you next week 🤙🏼

We have a guy at my office building who’s job it is to stand by the elevator and say GM to thousands of people as they shuffle in.

I feel like he would fit in really well around here.

Waiting for AWS certificate manager to update 🕘🕒🕗🕔🕑🕑 https://video.nostr.build/9cc6c476465eaf0bf11b9132cd4597224a327572d039845e45e009a821ccc31d.mov


Will do, hopefully I will have more to show by Nostrasia!


Yeah I think that is the plan and would be easiest. For the 1 table we are querying, there really is no need for a relational database and it would make the functions a lot lighter as well if I could remove the ORM modules and just use boto3


Yeah this absolutely has the potential to become a really expensive project. I have a number of monitors setup so I don't end up with any surprise AWS bills like I have many times before.

So far at pretty low volume, this costs only a few $ a month to run in multiple regions.


+1 I just gained like 30 random followers today, most of them in rapid succession and of suspicious origin 🕵🏼♂


Using the python 3.10 runtime for the lambdas. Not using the serverless framework yet, these were all manually configured functions, mostly copy paste from https://github.com/UTXOnly/nost-py and don't adhere to a specific design style. Was really just shooting from the hip here to test a few things.

I'm currently using rds postgresql and relying on that to update the read replicas in the appropriate regions. From the synthetics tests, this seems to update pretty quickly on db write.

But I'm definitely with you on the relational database bit. I have been meaning to try to refactor this to use a nosql db as we are really just utilizing 1 table but it was what I'm familiar with so I just ran with it lol.


Just testing different use cases for relays. Basically stripped out the important functions for a relay and have AWS manage the underlying servers and can have a globally distributed and available relay for pretty cheap (at current usage levels).


!00% 👊🏼 , I have numerous AWS estimated cost monitors running on this, I have walked into some really large surprise AWS bills especially with Private Link.


It's 100% dependent on AWS resources. I just wanted to build it to see if I could, still experimenting with use cases and developing on the self hosted branches.


Yeah Lambda has a 15 minute limit on functions. It seems to hold onto the single connection for as long as it can and works for now. I find a lot of relays ws connection terminate prematurely anyway, the persistent docker version of this relay does a great job of keeping 1 and only 1 ws open. Still experimenting with different use cases this would suit.

This was one of those projects i built just to see if I could.


Finished building a proof of concept serverless nostr relay this weekend (docs to follow).

This is the nostpy relay redeployed as a local-read, global-write multi-region serverless web application backed by a RDS Postgresql instance and Dynamo DB tables to manage the websocket connections.

This is the first draft, still looking to make another of changes and experiment with some other architecture. Of course the original host/container deployment is quicker but this was really fun to build and I'm looking to spend my time working towards relay optimization and high availability deployments.

I just wanna relay notes to nostriches over the world, quickly.

I'm sorry, that sucks.

Any of them nostr related domains? You're best bet is probably to offer them for private sale and can't think of a better place for nostr domains than here.

Unless they are worth enough to be sold by a domain broker, your best bet is probably a private sale to get rid of them.


Same thing has happened to me with a different domain registrar. Unfortunately, I had to eat the cost for those domains and never ended up building anything with most of them.

I believe I have heard of people turning around and listing them for auction with another registrar but have never done this myself.


Yeah the lock in can really be something else, I watch large enterprises fumble migrations to different cloud providers all the time.

Although there are plenty of surprise AWS charges, I actually built this with price in mind. So far if my calculations are correct, I can have this deployed in several regions for only a couple of $ a month at current usage levels. I'm constantly exploring with scaling and availability (sometimes at the expense of performance like in this case)


Jeroen 🫖🐸 じゅりよん


Increasing memory allocation for the serverless relay functions decreased latency by 3-4x, didn't realize that was such a bottleneck. I guess vCPU is adjusted proportionally as well.

That's a very sassy look 🤣


I found the error, I wasn't rolling back the db session when their was an error and it was preventing future writes due to an error that was thrown last night. Its fixed now


Yeah it is accepting and relaying notes, as well as replying with OK true/false messages but I think the latency is too high for many clients liking. Although as it is using API gateway and dynamodb to manage connections, it does seem to produce a lot of errors from orphan websocket connections. but seems to recover.

This was built more out of curiosity and the original host/docker deployment is proving to be much faster. But I do want to keep playing with this to explore other use cases for this.

much appreciated 🤙🏼

Can always count on you for spam layer zero


Please spam my API gateway with notes... not kidding trying to test traces under real user load rather than my synthetic tests

Which layer of hell is searching through cloudwatch logs?


Don't have any documentation for it yet, have it basically working but need to fix some serialization shit to make it usable by actual clients.

Will be sure to post the full documenttion and the code once finished though


The serverless refactoring of nostpy is now successfully parsing new events and inserting into the RDS postgresql instance.

Just need to rework the query function a bit and get working prototype stood up!

Rooting for you and hope to see you there!


This is possibly the most eloquent way of telling someone you got drunk last night 🤣


Seeing all the nostrich fun in Amsterdam is just getting me that much more pumped for Tokyo 🇯🇵⛩🍱

2 Weeks to go!


I'm building a service that is really better suited for a fargate task but I'm 90% there making it work as a lambda function and very stubborn.

That being said, anyone have any advice for reducing lambda cold start time besides trimming down layers? I have stripped it down to bare bones from the original container deployment.


I flew spirit back from nostrica and due to a series of mishaps on their end, ended up stranded in Ft. Lauderdale for 24 hours on my own dime. 👎🏽 won’t make that mistake again.

Anyone have any advice for navigating the japan rail timetables?

I have finally narrowed down the routes I'm looking to take but finding the actual times these trains run in English is proving to be more difficult than expected.

Is google the right move here? I find that around my way, google isn't always up to date with changes the MBTA may have on their website so I don't really trust it.

For now I use a token based rate limiter that limits the number of requests an IP address makes to prevent this see plenty of clients rate limited. No idea how to translate this into a NIP yet though 🤔 https://image.nostr.build/3628ca565e94a9e45cc44dbed6bf08cc2530beea41e6fced3c86152315992dc2.jpg


Lots of jobs do this already. There this plenty of software that sells this service to companies giving them a risk rating of the employee if you post controversial stuff that may later be used against the company.

Heard of people getting offers rescinded for this.

This could very easily be done with nostr as well if you have links to your identity on your profile/posts.


Wasn't that cool, just really loud with a bunch of people looking around like WTF is that?

Introducing 🍷 cellar.nostr.wine - long term pay per use storage for your vintage notes!

Why?
- Most relays do not accept very old events
- Some relays periodically purge old notes (NOT nostr.wine!)
- Offline backups/private relays are not viewable by others
- Fiatjaf told me to do it

How does it work?
1. Add to your pubkey balance on https://cellar.nostr.wine
2. Send notes to the relay using any backup service or nostr client (no created_at limits)
3. As our relay receives your notes it will charge your balance a pro rated annual fee per note (1 sat per note/year)
4. Your notes are stored and indexed by the relay as well as automatically backed up and available for rapid export at anytime
5. You will receive DM reminders when your balance starts getting low and when renewal fees are due
6. Anyone can add wss://cellar.nostr.wine to their nostr client and query historical notes

Cellar automatically rejects the following event kinds: 4 (DM), 6 (Repost), 7 (Reaction), 1064 (File), 1984 (Reporting), 9735 (Zap), and all ephemeral events.

Authorized delete requests are always honored and never charged. Kind 0, 3, and 10002 events are stored without charge from paid users. Duplicates events will never be charged.

Future improvement ideas:
- Customized exports (choose which event kinds to include, timestamp filters, and file type options)
- User controlled kind allow-lists for billing (only allow kind 1, for example)
- Browse the Cellar (Frontend to browse old events with a date picker. See what people were talking about on a specific day in history.)
- Search the Cellar (NIP-50, our API, and Kibana)
- Import tool that lets you export events from filter.nostr.wine to the Cellar


I’m intrigued by Japanese business culture

Do people actually say stuff like this in Japan or is this just the closest we can translate in English and it sounds much more cordial? https://image.nostr.build/1bd1b7a26395fdd7bc24f2b398c68bc577dceed1490a4234062c8d638b1b9e02.jpg

No problem! If the issue persists, I wrote a relay that automates many steps of the deployment, also uses docker and is well tested on Ubuntu 22.04 if you’re interested in trying.

Try running:

docker ps

Nostr performance pro tip: put the `id` field first in an event.

This enables clients and relays to abort deserialisation if they've already seen the event.

After that the `created_at` and `kind`, as that can also eliminate unnecessary deserialisation early on.
