Nostree lists are easily embeddable by nip19, so if servus is able to render nostr events by its nip19 entity (in this case naddr), it can display any nostree list. BTW i didnt know about servus 👀

To threaten people with a felony charge for not playing the role of tax collector on behalf of the IRS is one of the most despicable and insulting things that has come out of the US government in recent years.

Pieter Wuille sobre se ha pronunciado sobre cambiar Bitcoin Core para dejar de retransmitir ciertas transacciones:

"No creo que esto sea del interés de los usuarios de nuestro software. El punto de participar en la transmisión de transacciones y tener un mempool es poder hacer una predicción sobre cómo serán los próximos bloques. Excluir intencionalmente transacciones para las cuales existe una demanda económica muy clara (aunque sea estúpida) interrumpe esa capacidad, sin eliminar la necesidad de validarlas cuando se extraen.

Por supuesto, cualquiera es libre de ejecutar o proporcionar software que transmita/guarde/extrape lo que desee, pero si su objetivo no es tener un mempool realista, también puede ejecutar el modo -blocksonly. Esto tiene ahorros de recursos significativamente mayores, si ese es el objetivo.

En la medida en que esto sea un intento de no solo no ver ciertas transacciones, sino también de desalentar su uso, esto como máximo hará que esas transacciones eviten los nodos que implementan esto, o en el peor de los casos resultará en una práctica de enviar transacciones directamente a los mineros, lo que tiene riesgos serios para la centralización de la minería. Aunque la no estandarización se ha utilizado históricamente para desalentar prácticas molestas, creo que esto es (a) mucho menos relevante en estos días donde bloques completos son la norma, por lo que de todos modos no reducirá los costos de operación del nodo, y (b) impotente para detener transacciones para las cuales ya existe un mercado existente, uno que paga decenas de BTC en tarifas por día.

Creo que la demanda de espacio en bloque que muchas de estas transacciones plantean es completamente equivocada, pero elegir no verlas es como enterrar la cabeza en la arena."

Yesyesyes! My pleasure:) looking forward to see that pics 👏


Perfect, sounds good really, to know how to use a camera in manual mode is to really understand photography and the tools and variables that you have at your disposal to affect the final result of the photograph. Basically there are three values or variables that you have to learn, I'll try to give you a brief explanation and to make it similar to how our vision works through the human eye ;)
- Shutter speed: The cameras have a sensor if it is digital and a film if it is analogical, this is the support on which the light hits and leaves 'recorded' the image. The shutter speed controls the time that the sensor or film is exposed to light. Think of it as a curtain that opens for the time you set, normally the shutter speed is measured in seconds and fractions of a second, for example 1/1000 would mean that the sensor is exposed to light for a millisecond. If we compare it to a human eye this could be the speed at which we blink.
-Diaphragm aperture: In addition to the shutter, cameras have a diaphragm, which is a system that lets more or less light into the sensor, like the pupils of an eye that become small or large depending on the amount of light. It is measured with the number f/ and basically indicates how closed or open the aperture is, it works like this for example f/2.8 is an open aperture, and f/16 for example is a more closed aperture.
-ISO: this value indicates the sensitivity of the sensor or film in your camera, the higher the number the more sensitive to light the sensor or film is, also the more sensitive it is, the more noise you will have in the picture, for example iso100 is a low sensitive iso, suitable for scenes with a lot of light, for example a sunny day, and an iso1600 for example is much more sensitive and is more suitable for night or low light scenes.

Basically if you understand these three values and how they relate to each other, you understand photography and you can use the camera in manual to take pictures the way you want and find the result you want.
Lastly, there is an element in the camera called a light meter and it basically gives you a scale of whether the photo is well exposed, overexposed (very white or bright photo), or underexposed (very dark photo). This meter gives you the exposure reading based on the shutter speed, aperture and iso that you have set on your camera.

... I know I have given you a lot of info, but if you understand these concepts you can deal with any camera, digital, analog or whatever hahaha they are the basic principles of photography. On the internet there are many resources to learn, I can also recommend you books


Hahaha That depends, if you want to take photos in automatic or manual mode, automatic is easy but less creative, manual you can control all aspects of photography (Basically shutter speed, aperture, and iso) and achieve the result that you want. But if what you are looking for is to improve your ability to compose photography, that is another matter. In any case i can recommend books or answer questions, I was studying and working in photography for a few years 🤙


Are you looking for something that tells you about the technological principles of photography? Something like, shutter speed, aperture, iso and so on, or a book on composition?


Not exactly, afaik during part of the day developing all together

Tomorrow, January 4th, the verdict in Julian Assange's extradition trial will be delivered, and honestly, I can't bring myself to think that today we are celebrating the birth of the key to humanity's freedom and tomorrow, a man who did nothing wrong and has been deprived of his freedom may be stripped away of all his human rights.

I've been thinking a lot about this, especially after chatting with @Stella and John Shipton last year. They really opened my eyes to how messed up this whole situation is. If you're curious, check out our full talk here: https://youtu.be/ugeDIda5Zac

I hope tomorrow's verdict brings Julian closer to being freed and back with his family. But this isn't the end of the road for Assange. His final appeal in London's High Court is set for February. This could be his last chance to avoid extradition to the United States, where he faces serious charges. This moment is key, not just for Assange but for journalism and civil liberties worldwide.

If you're in the US, this is your call to action. Hit up your congressperson. Tell them to push Biden to drop all charges against Assange. Your voice can make a difference.

With this, I want to say that even though I'm totally blown away and super thankful for Bitcoin turning 15 today, it's tough to really get into the party mood. Knowing there are so many freedom fighters out there getting their wings clipped, it hits hard... We could be next...

Today isn't just about partying and celebrating for me. Today, I'm all about standing up to the establishment, reminding them they can't shut us down. We've got to keep fighting every single day, but especially on days like today, especially every January 3rd.

Any European lawyers out there? Can anyone point me to the exact law or regulation in Europe that makes it impossible to run a custodial lightning service as part of an app or for a circular economy?

I'm just trying to go deeper on what the ACTUAL requirements are if you want to be fully legal and run a custodial lightning node with something like LNHub.

Please, no replies just yelling about how the regs are bullshit. I 1000% agree, but that's not what I'm looking for here.

A few months ago I wrote this on twitter.

Figured I would bring it back here.

Bull runs tend to make everyone feel like a trading genius so you might be inclined to trade shitcoins.

Here we go 👇

If you're trading shitcoins to make more bitcoin, here are a few things to reflect on you might have overlooked:

If you currently own bitcoin you already have "enough" bitcoin; whatever trading you do for 99.9% of people won't make a difference. Of course, you think you are the .01% because that's human psyche, and casinos would not exist if this weren't the case, so you can probably stop reading.

Trading shitcoins is WORSE than any other kind of trading/gambling: if you subscribe to the idea that bitcoin is a technology for freedom, your trading shitcoins (i.e. giving them liquidity) provides oxygen to the most successful attack (to date) against bitcoin: generating confusion about what it is, and making people believe it's yet another speculative/trading vehicle. If you know this, then you, willingly or not, are participating in exploiting financial and freedom illiteracy.

We are where we put our attention; is your attention on something worthwhile, or is it focused on trading? Even if you just use X% of your attention, are you happy paying a (X%+context-switching-costs) tax to delay the world you want to see just because you want a slightly better position in a hyperbitcoinized world?

Your attention and time are WAY scarcer than bitcoin; are you protecting/respecting these as you do your cold storage?

You probably don't agree with this; otherwise, you wouldn't be trading shitcoins, but I'm writing this on the off-chance that you haven't considered this before and you were just too focused on the "I want more bitcoin" ambition.

TL;DR:

* You are wasting your life-force/energy on something that doesn't improve anyone's life, including your own.
* You are financially supporting scammers creating chaos.
* You are helping delay a tectonic shift in the amount of individual freedom.

Reminder ! If you don’t have any #bitcoin or #nostr related meetups in your area, start running one !


For the end of the year I deployed a new beefy relay at:

relay.nostr.net

Runs strfry, no hard limits on the infrastructure with plans to keep it as a public good.

Announcing the Permaculture Nest!
https://i.nostr.build/znEy.jpg#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=1080x517&blurhash=Z80arGfjY%40fjZAf%25dxfjeEfjfje%3Bf7fQfjfjfjfjd1fjd_f7eEf7eqf%25fQg0f7g0f%25f7f7eqf7e%3B&x=ba8d9e43d14f856c87a0f378c501a0b9f2e4c07bc75fb16ecbaa386b8217bf38
Tomorrow, January 3rd, at 8pm Eastern time I will host a Nostr Nests discussing permaculture with a few other permies I've known for several years. We will go deep on what permaculture is and cover what we are working on more broadly then get people up on stage to ask some questions. If you're a permie hungry for some solid discussion or someone who is interested in learning more about permaculture this nest is going to have something for everyone. It is my intention to host these discussions on the first Wednesday of every month so let's kick the first one of the year off together!


Fees for inclusion in the next block are 📉down📉 61% over the average in the past 2016 blocks. 🙌 🍀🤞If we get lucky🍀🤞 we'll get a few more blocks and fees will go down even more. The average over this halving (194,071 blocks) has been 30 sats/vByte. #decreasingfees -- Current min fee: 53 sats/vByte vs 136 average over the past 2016 blocks.

📢 nsecBunker 0.10.0 is out!

Codename: nostr, an oauth-like protocol

This is a significant release that provides the ability to run OAuth-like bunkers which will allow registration in your bunker to new accounts.

It also integrates with LNBits + Nostrdress to provide the ability for new nostr users to be able to immediately receive zaps 🤯

✅ LNBits
✅ Nostdress for zap receives 👀 (thanks nostr:npub1nxa4tywfz9nqp7z9zp7nr7d4nchhclsf58lcqt5y782rmf2hefjquaa6q8)
✅ NIP-89 announcement on each nsecbunker boot
* Tons of bugfixes

Next up will be connecting the new user's wallet to automatically negotiate Nostr Wallet Connect; clients will be immediately able to *send* zaps. No fidgeting with copying around connection strings or scanning QR codes, client and nsecbunker negotiate in the background.

Under the hood, this is using the flow described here https://github.com/kind-0/nsecbunkerd/blob/master/OAUTH-LIKE-FLOW.md

I think that nostr naturally attracts those 'other stuff' people, and normies in the current state feel some friction, so the focus from my point of view in order not to go against the natural target should be on developing and polishing well the tools and integrations, but never forgetting usability and ux.

Happy new year 🫂💜 may the nips be  with you


It's almost New Year, and in just a few hours Steamboat Willie will enter the public domain: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other/disney-to-lose-copyright-of-early-version-of-mickey-mouse/ar-AA1mfxRH

Steamboat Willie was originally going to enter PD in 2004, but Disney got passed the "Mickey Mouse Protection Act" in 1998 to stop that from happening. They extended the length by 20 years, and it is now 20 years later, so Disney is finally forced to swallow what it chewed.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, I present to you "Copying is Not Theft" by nostr:npub18jnj0lr27gacdnxvkvzgdjjjfj4u8gn78j04d6rrqcw8zq7nqt0s7t7898 :

Happy New Year #Nostr!

Here’s your #NostrTechWeekly newsletter brought to you by nostr:npub19mduaf5569jx9xz555jcx3v06mvktvtpu0zgk47n4lcpjsz43zzqhj6vzk written by nostr:npub1r3fwhjpx2njy87f9qxmapjn9neutwh7aeww95e03drkfg45cey4qgl7ex2

The #NostrTechWeekly is a weekly newsletter focused on the more technical happenings in the nostr-verse.

Let’s dive in!

![Happy New Year Rita!](https://i.nostr.build/gOAB.jpg)

## Recent Upgrades to Nostr (AKA [NIPs](https://nostr.com/the-protocol/nips))
This week’s NIP summaries all revolve around the emerging DM and Group Chat patterns being developed to maximize security and privacy while still being Nostr-native.

#### 1) [NIP-44: Encrypted Payloads in Nostr](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/746/files#diff-630d2c58ee966e56febbf007e2227c6b62b6a3bbd333be3019cc0bc782120316)
In Nostr, the most basic way to send encrypted DMs to specific users is via NIP-04. You use the public key of the recipient to encrypt the message and wrap it in a Nostr event which gets published to relays that the sender and receiver share. The receiver pulls the event down and decrypts it with their private key.

The patterns used in NIP-04 around the actual encryption are not ideal. NIP-04 does not minimize how much metadata is leaked when encrypting data to transmit via relays. NIP-04 encryption itself also isn’t as secure in the context of publishing these encrypted DMs to relays for any attacker to gather, helping them to guess a user’s private keys or decrypt their messages.

NIP-44 is a step change improvement in how Nostr apps can encrypt data to move more secure data around via Nostr. On its own it’s helpful but what’s being built on top of it could be game changing for Nostr.

The NIP-44 spec was recently audited by [Cure53](https://cure53.de/), a summary of which can be found by nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn [here](https://habla.news/u/hodlbod@coracle.social/1702414575183).

So much time and effort from a large swath of the Nostr dev community went into getting this across the line. Nice work y’all. Thanks to nostr:npub10jcnehsxwrjepupvh602pl83up0dh3wv3fqfwv062smygqvpeuwsk03kag for kicking it off and driving it home.

#### 2) (Proposed) [NIP-17: Private DMs and Group Chats](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/686/files#diff-6077719b284438886b7d78c839a31de98ae346d24edffafb6a6f2a567eaee2f2)
Building on NIP-44 as a foundation, this proposal’s goal is to coordinate a more private DM and Group Chat solution on Nostr than NIP-04.

NIP-17 utilizes (the also proposed) NIP–59: “Gift Wrapping” pattern for keeping the metadata of Nostr events private. In this case the gift wrapping will be for DMs and group chat messages.

If I understand correctly this could make it so that group chats can be entirely run using Nostr relays; so messages live on relays just like any other Nostr content, but neither the identity of the sender or receivers are leaked, and much of the other metadata is hidden as well.

Amethyst built their DMs based on this proposal since nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z is the author of this NIP and Amethyst. So it’s working in the wild and is definitely an improvement on NIP-04.

#### 3) (Proposed) [NIP-43: Shared Key DM](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/945/files?short_path=58e2c23#diff-58e2c23e46271957d48ea789043bb41d6c096df68176c1e46573bb5711498d7d)
This is an alternative to NIP-17 from [arthurfranca](https://github.com/arthurfranca). There are some flaws to NIP-17 (as outlined in this proposal):

1. The receiver has no way to fetch just DMs
1. The receiver has no way to fetch just Gift-wraps/DMs from a specific person
1. The receiver needs to fetch messages from the "last read at" moment minus one week onwards

So this proposal is to use a shared key to encrypt and decrypt messages to avoid some of the problems above. This proposal has its own difficulties and is early in its development, but may be the foundation of an alternative method for managing private communications via Nostr.

## Notable Projects
#### [Flare](https://w3.do/95naDZ1W) 📽
Flare is attempting a Nostr-powered Youtube. They’re even using new Nostr events to store views and comments and all sorts of other interactions that are part of a video platform.

From what I can tell the videos are not hosted on relays so they’re likely stored in an existing video storage service or by Flare itself. (which seems like a good call for the time being).

As even Rumble is starting to get pressure from governments and interest groups, a censorship resistant video platform seems more important than ever. Nice work nostr:npub1zach44xjpc4yyhx6pgse2cj2pf98838kja03dv2e8ly8lfr094vqvm5dy5 !

#### [Unleashed.Chat](https://w3.do/oeX9EMpW) 💬
nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8 recently shipped https://unleashed.chat which looks like a similar product to ChatGPT or HuggingFace but you can choose different open-source models to chat with.

The most amazing feature is that the models are able to query Nostr content allowing you to ask about events, conversations, or people on Nostr. It’s a struggle to aggregate all that is happening on Nostr and having this type of solution could be a game changer.

It’s also a Bitcoin-driven way to pay for such services as well. So if you’re interested in having a ChatGPT experience but paying in Bitcoin, this is your solution!

It seems like the future of the product will include unleashed.chat being used to develop and deploy Data Vending Machines as well. I look forward to seeing how this project takes shape!

#### [Nostrrr](https://w3.do/yS6J3U8K) 🌐
nostr:npub107jk7htfv243u0x5ynn43scq9wrxtaasmrwwa8lfu2ydwag6cx2quqncxg announced big updates to https://nostrrr.com which is a relay explorer and management app.

Tools such as Nostr.Watch are a great source of raw data on the relays that are currently publicly addressable in the Nostr-verse, but there’s other information that’s helpful for everyday users when determining which relays they should use.

Many applications are using relay list meta-data (NIP-65)[https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/65.md] when it comes to tracking a user’s preferred relays.

Nostrrr.com helps users find good relays and to manage their list of preferred relays. Having a dedicated web app for this helps so that Nostr clients don’t have to build a relay management interface if they don’t want to, but still help give users direction on where and how to manage their relays.

#### [Nostr-based Patreon](https://w3.do/4RFkyoCF) 💰
The folks over at Nostr.Wine seem to be at it again! They’ve recently shipped the ability to subscribe to creators using Nostr and Lightning payments. This could be the Patreon competitor that creators need to unshackle from the platforms that take such a large tax on their income. 💪

#### [NDK Updates](https://w3.do/pyhbY728) ⚒
When developing Nostr clients there are some operations that you do all. the. time. And so nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft built a tool for Nostr devs that automates a lot of the tedious work in building Nostr clients.

He just announced an update that has a truckload of improvements in it including support for new Nostr operations from recently adopted NIPs. Thanks Pablo!

## Latest conversations: Funding Nostr Development
Will over at Damus [recently posted that funding for Damus currently won’t stretch beyond 2024](https://w3.do/Oi-vo1mX). This sparked many conversations about the sustainability of Nostr development and how to fund it in perpetuity.

Many Nostr devs contribute for the joy of it. There are some funding sources that allow a few devs to work on Nostr full time, some are able to dedicate significant time to Nostr development because of their life situation, but many are just using their nights and weekends to contribute to the Nostr community.

The Nostr-verse will need ways to sustainably fund development if the current pace of progress is to be sustained (or even accelerated).

#### Zaps
Devs get zapped fairly often. Sometimes it’s directly from grateful users, other times it’s on posts about new or updated products. These are great examples of value-for-value, but the amount of sats being zapped aren’t currently valuable enough to sustainably fund all the dev work being done.

The Zap economy could sustain development in two situations:

a) Bitcoin’s value skyrockets and the sats that have been zapped so far will be valuable enough to pay the bills for devs and increase their current runway (I imagine folks will begin to zap in lower amounts in this future so it’s a temporary bump).

b) The number of Nostr users skyrockets so there’s more people zapping devs. The architecture of Nostr is such that as usage of Nostr grows, the amount of labor needed to sustain it doesn’t grow at the same rate. Therefore as usage scales, zapping may be able to sustainably fund development and support of Nostr apps.

These aren’t variables that anyone can control directly so it may not be wise to wait around for them to happen.

#### Private donations
Since Nostr aligns with their goals: Jack Dorsey, the Human Rights Foundation, and OpenSats have been fairly public about granting funds to prominent Nostr devs to help development along.

As far as I’ve heard in public areas, these funds are not recurring. So the funds will run out at some point. Donations are also a way for Nostr to be captured by the interests of donors. I am not sure if this can be a sustainable way to fund Nostr.

#### Sustainable businesses
The holy grail for Nostr development is the creation of sustainable businesses that rely on Nostr. Any business that’s profitable and requires Nostr to operate will be inclined to improve the Nostr protocol and contribute to the community (as more Nostr users will likely benefit them directly as well).

Nostr is still early in the technological development lifecycle so it’s not a surprise that it’s hard to name a profitable Nostr-based business. But this may be the clearest path to sustainable funding for Nostr and building the network effects that will drive wider Nostr adoption (and in turn more profitable businesses in the Nostr-verse).

The question is what app(s) can be built on Nostr that are significantly better than current products available in the world. Not just a little better, not just 10 times better for freedom-minded folks, but 10 times better for a large population of people that are already paying for something similar. It’s a tough question and if there were any easy answers I’m sure they’d be built and profitable already.

Luckily, Nostr has a few unique things that have enormous potential:

1. **Data Vending Machines:** this is a concept I’ve never seen anywhere else and with the emergence of AI APIs (LLMs, text to speech, image generation, speech to text, translation, etc) there may be something unique we can build in Nostr around this.
1. **Nostr + Lightning:** Patreon charges 8% from creators, platforms like Substack, Youtube, and Twitch take 10-60% of revenue from creators. This can likely be disrupted by the extremely low fee payments available via Lightning. If we could build a drop-in replacement for Patreon or Substack for creators that charged 1% instead of 8-10% that could really draw in sustainable business.

If we can create a few sustainable businesses on Nostr, I’ll bet we can keep advancing Nostr and make even more sustainable businesses possible. On and on until Nostr becomes an unstoppable juggernaut disrupting the legacy tech ecosystem.

If there’s something on Nostr that you’d pay a subscription for if only it had a few more features, reply to this thread. Hopefully we can discover a few businesses if we put our heads together.

## Until next time 🫡
If you want to see something highlighted, if we missed anything, or if you’re building something we didn’t post about, let us know. DMs welcome at nostr:npub19mduaf5569jx9xz555jcx3v06mvktvtpu0zgk47n4lcpjsz43zzqhj6vzk

Stay Classy, Nostr.

I don't really know, ultimately it's a power game, like you said the sweet spot is citizens who are smart enough to pay taxes but too dumb to be rebels, and my thinking is that it's going to take less and less intelligence to pay taxes, with cbdcs and all that it entails paying taxes won't be difficult if you're properly subjected to the system, so the requirement to be smart enough to pay taxes may drop drastically. On the other hand, I'm not sure that the disrespect of the other side is based on the average IQ or how rebellious the people of a country are, but rather the opposite, how good they are at manipulating and controlling everything. I agree with your point that they are evil in an idiotic way, at least many of them are simple cogs in a monstrous machine, who out of selfishness and unwillingness decide not to face the repercussions of their actions, and for them we can call them idiots, although for me that does not mean they are evil, because consciously or unconsciously they are facilitators of all this.

Pure evil... Sometimes when I argue about whether these people are evil or not, there are people who think that they are not really evil, they think they are just unconscious and naive, they are just doing their job, and that they don't really want to be bad or don't consciously think about the damage they do... For me all that is a pretty innocent thought, from my point of view they are evil and there is no better way to describe them... What do you think, evil, or just naive?

Clients id like to see built in 2024:

- Onlyfans alternative. This pairs well with lightning payments and solves the waiting for payouts issue.

- Nostr-based native music app. Wavman but 100% nostr

- Digital products marketplace over nostr with zap to pay. Focus 100% on digital product creators.

- media only client (Instagram)

- A really good community-only client with robust community features

- maps over nostr. This is being built but needs more energy I guess

- a low data client or low data mode in all major social clients

- YouTube style client but native app (keep forgetting what one we have on web is called).

Besides new clients, I think we can do a lot to educate people, improve discovery massively (this should be priority #1) and to improve base performance of all major clients.


On Saturday, December 30 2023, a total of 244,388 BTC ($10B) was transferred using the #Bitcoin network in 142 blocks.

It's been an incredible year for us here at Wavlake and we wanted to take a moment to look back and see how far we've come since launch. Read more.. https://zine.wavlake.com/2023-year-in-review/


I am working on a nostr-based item system for video games. Players can create their own items with customized stats (think mech parts for Armored Core 6, or guns in Call of Duty, or World of Warcraft items) but the stats must be paid for via NIP-13 proof-of-work. This enables ultimate creativity, guided by a game's stat rules, and constrained by thermodynamics. Consequently, an interesting result of a POW-based item system is that your thermodynamic power in reality can translate into in-game power, and although skill and luck should also be necessary, this can effectively make any game a proxy for real life competition.

Another interesting aspect of nostr-based game items is that you can bring your items via your pubkey into different video games, making persistent interoperable items that exist between experiences.

There is a lot to explore in this space.

The Nostur Report: 2023 in review
along with some of my favorite bookmarks and thank you’s.

On Jan 4th I clicked on this button and it would eventually become Nostur:
https://nostur.com/screenshots/create-xcode.jpg

Few know it started because scrolling in Damus was buggy (back then):
nostr:note1l3hjzjk2qhud4e5nqr6wrw99705yk6dpf6zhefsg0fearzrwap5sa9we5j

After some progress I made my announcement and first post on nostr: nostr:note1tcs2aj6m8hf3fxgp3k83200n3mw7ywnmm9wnmvram96awu45fmrshq2hcy

I had been quietly posting updates into an empty void for some time until I got a repost from nostr:npub1hw0s9g0u0jpcfezfvcyn86k0k9v0m3x8uj5cr7va478lksysyj6qzl59hh
nostr:note19vzu7juak7rhrca85pujh34ndcruw0rt484vkzag7eqv6x4l2mrqfnd8nc

then Jack mentioned Nostur once, but then never again 🥲 nostr:note13ytg2xe66a8wn5087gxhc7j230eq3p5c02g6eprux45xqfnkescqwruye0
still grateful for indirectly supporting through nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f, thank you nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m

Pablo said Nostur is fantastic and Nostur started to gain some traction
nostr:note1mkecyeqjzfnmk5p8hxpe5wz02h66565pg72cvpdvz79gz5uearhsaef8zk

This was at the time when Nostur was still very buggy, so thanks for the encouragement nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft

back then some of the UX was so bad that if you die on Nostur you die in real life: nostr:note1y37wrgev9g5r2mh6y6l2qd6v7mcpr5pdlz3s8q6j7y5p379s6hvq37euy4

We saw Apple ban zaps and I wrote a Nostur mission
nostr:note1dd3zsnd8jpk4l5jrxpv2606vd3ffkv2gfw9j5wgykxv7shlpv8aqrq8zsv

nostr:npub1xlam7ac8uu9g5au8ukcmwhe7jal8p2457swa77eupuuv4mwcwh2qgjgrrk was the first to discover some sly roundabout way for zaps and share it nostr:note1fq2ee4gygz72hhvzuncst2hwacdqhphuve6qccsqlrwtuy96kalq696mrf

People kept losing their follow list in other clients and nostr:npub1aeh2zw4elewy5682lxc6xnlqzjnxksq303gwu2npfaxd49vmde6qcq4nwx kept informing them over and over that they can restore with Nostur: nostr:note198rm2s0u7d8vwv2m2cw53xn058m49xdxgzkvwrjqs47w29q0x0ksrpmmhn
nostr:note1z2mw5q8afav072aljp7nfrtl9km2ymufpa3qk0xhf4rq0hvp0nmsedz0cq

nostr:npub138s5hey76qrnm2pmv7p8nnffhfddsm8sqzm285dyc0wy4f8a6qkqtzx624 informed me about NIP-96, a spec for hosting media files and nostr:npub1ust7u0v3qffejwhqee45r49zgcyewrcn99vdwkednd356c9resyqtnn3mj suggested to use WordPress for this. With some help from ChatGPT Nostr Media Uploads for WordPress was born:
nostr:note1np9j3g2sy9qxfafppe8qxhhchygu9dfh8snewjzq3jk346hw498qeg2ms6
https://github.com/fabianfabian/nostr-media/releases/tag/0.7-beta

The spam problem got solved, with some caveats, which I wrote about in Nostr and the accidental Web of Trust:
nostr:note1sy8zw9clylarq732czftdyp59nmh77pv4uuas2fja4c75m7ag98skqslhj

And I haven’t posted about this one much yet but it exists: a Swift package to start building your own nostr client:
https://github.com/nostur-com/nostr-essentials

Finally special thanks to nostr:npub1lrnvvs6z78s9yjqxxr38uyqkmn34lsaxznnqgd877j4z2qej3j5s09qnw5, nostr:npub1cdak4q4f3h3k3sgyh0rd5dj4w8k95f3mquzh6z3ew76vqkh60e3slyczgz, and nostr:npub1ust7u0v3qffejwhqee45r49zgcyewrcn99vdwkednd356c9resyqtnn3mj for pushing Nostur to the limits, finding bugs, suggesting improvements and showing demos like: nostr:note1pmctdvtswxd404ps0rfhzqpdz5glgwc6fy0argm0qgucp832n70s6ewlh2

I know I missed some, I have many bookmarks and I also lost a few migrating to a new system.

I’m not much of a marketeer so I rely on all of you to describe your experiences, thank you all!

BTW: if some of the embedded posts are not loading, consider adding an archival relay to your relay settings: wss://relay.nostr.band and wss://a.nos.lol should get you all the posts you need.

I am utterly unafraid of CBDCs.
The hysteria is mostly formed from superficial doom-circle-jerk analysis. Successful CBDCs will be a private federated ecash (or something very similar), the wisest built on the Bitcoin stack:

* Private banks will not sacrifice their power over money production via debt (as mints' status quo can continue).
* Privacy/fungibility and acquiring users overrides any Stalinist incentives.
* All we need is 1 sovereign currency producing country to use a fedi-like system built on Bitcoin, Gresham's law will do the rest.
* Building digitally native money is really fucking hard, do not underestimate the work we have done, and how governments will make use of it.

Zoom out. Post WW2 monetary order was a design choice, the next will be for apolitical money as world reserve currency, (let's not be humble) Bitcoin really is the best candidate.
Sovereign currency-producing countries, who actually do their homework, know all this. Having a native digital currency entirely interoperable with other countries' currency via its apolitical base (Bitcoin) IS the solution we are tip-toeing towards. Humanity moves toward greater liberation.
As time wears on, and liquidity pours in bitcoin, it will become stable enough to use naively. Whether people will use really depends on how poorly their CBDC treat them.
This is how hyperbitcoinisation happens.


Definitely useful xD

There are some trained models for coding, there are some you can try on the perplexity playground, which also gives you access to a brutal service labs.perplexity.ai . Other than that the search engine is pretty good at finding information from different sources and giving you a summary of everything, it saves a lot of time when searching, it can even show you info from reddit which is now totally closed if you don't have an account.


Yes it is very good in fact, I have tried it in some situations to search for specific things in local places, for example to look at bus schedules between towns for example and it works, it is brutal.


:risitas:


Wow, congratulations odell! 🫂💜


https://www.perplexity.ai/ has been my search engine for a few weeks now... Not bad at all

Ending the year off strong!

Over the last few months, we've been preparing our wallet for Fedimint integrations. Today marks the first release with Fedimint support ready for alpha testing!

https://m.primal.net/HVrM.png

Fedimint is software for managing federated custodian funds. It's similar to the trust model of Liquid but better privacy and without a blockchain involved. It also has first-class support for Lightning.

The way we've gone about the integration is to seamlessly smooth over the edges that exist in self-custodial Lightning. Our hybrid approach will use a configured Federation when needed. Otherwise, it uses self-custodial Lightning if it exists for the user. This helps things like channel reserves, channel minimums, high chain fees to get started, etc.

You may add a Federation alongside your existing wallet or start with one without needing to open channels or pay on-chain costs. We recommend keeping the value low since this is a very early release, and there are some known features that we still need to develop.

https://m.primal.net/HVrN.png

It should feel and act like the same Mutiny Wallet with some caveats around backups for now.

A massive shoutout to the Fedimint team for their recent v0.2 release. It's still early for them and us, so all testing and feedback is welcomed! This does rely on having a federation invite code. We suspect that, over the next few weeks and months, more mainnet federations will pop up. There is not a default one built into the wallet.

We should also have Lightning Address support in a few weeks that works through federations. Kody has already started that work, and it seems promising: https://github.com/Kodylow/hermes

Also, there's beginning work on supporting the Lightning Service Provider Specification, which will eventually allow more plug-and-play support for any LSP to power Mutiny. This will be huge for more advanced node runners as the spec matures. Huge shoutout to John Cantrell for that work.

A lot of core infrastructure has been built into this release. Let us know if there are any problems; it should be identical to previous versions if you do not configure a Fedimint or different LSP.

Expect much more to come soon. Happy new year!

spent the past few days getting a note content parser into nostrdb. When you get notes off the wire and dump them into the db, note contents will be parsed for you.

It chops the note up into its constituent parts:

“follow nostr:nevent… #coffeechain https://example.com”

<text ‘follow’> <mention nevent…> <hashtag ‘coffeechain’> <url ‘http://example.com’>

And stores them. I built this for use in notecrumbs (the attached note preview could use some proper colored hashtags). Going to use it for the notecrumb http note preview, damus android/notedeck, and ios as well.

It’s nice to have this available in the database anytime you need to render something. Frontend devs can focus on ui and not worry about the complex stuff. Let nostrdb do all the hard work. #nostrdb already has stats and search, now note blocks! It’s a swiss army knife for native nostr client devs 😎

If you run a data processing/AI service and want to offer it to the whole Nostr protocol feel free to reach out. We'll make it work. 🤙


Pro/Con of Decentralized peer-to-peer WiFi or LoRa networks

The idea of buying WiFi or messaging communication on a layer 2 internet or No KYC peer-to-peer internet that completely reject’s the government’s infrastructure and surveillance is very appealing.  The ideal situation is using some kind of no-government DNS messenger such as Briar with bluetooth or LoRaWAN messengers with layer 2 internet.  However, many projects have implementations of this that are either not yet ready for real use, or I disagree with their approach.

This is a general overview of SOME of the projects in this space.  Please keep in mind that mentioning a cryptocurrency does NOT mean I’m endorsing their coin.  Many of our readers dislike shitcoins.  But this isn’t an investment article, it’s a tech article to benefit YOU and not to promote the coins, so you can someday use these concepts in whatever currency you do like.

Helium
https://www.helium.com
Pro: Largest LoRa (Long Range Wide Area Network) out there.  This is bluetooth based coverage for IoT.  The technology can potentially be used for LoRaWAN messengers which is basically a full-blown off-grid 2nd internet type mesh networks
Con: It’s not WiFi, we’re talking about IoT bluetooth.  The range on WiFi is much lower.  They may be developing something similar for WiFi in the future

Pollen Mobile
pollenmobile.io
Pro: Peer-to-peer WiFi, this is basically like a reseller market.  People buy physical infrastructure and erect it on a satellite thing on their roof.  It’s teamed with multiple providers, but one is Starlink, providing a secondary market for Starlink.
Con: They will be doing PCN crypto payments in the future, but right now, it’s temporarily only US dollars.  It’s unclear when they will shift.  Their test pilot involved government officials voluntarily agreeing in California, so not exactly crypto-anarchy but still progress.

Chirp
https://www.chirpstack.io/
Pro: This is real LoRa off-grid, and not a reseller like Pollen.  150+ cities.  Hardware is original.
License-free 2.4 GHz LoRa frequency so fuck regulation.
Con: Managed by AI.  That’s lame bullshit for decentralization.  I can’t find the white paper on their website, but I can find the influencers program.  That’s a bad sign.

WiFi Map
https://www.wifimap.io/
Pro: Crowdsourced WiFi mapping funded by crypto.  In other words, people map out where you can get free WiFi for a reward for updating the map.
Con: Proprietary AI technologies help manage the map.  Socialist purpose, to provide “free coverage to all”.  This is NOT about defying the government.  They’re hosted on Amazon and use Google.

Drop Wireless
https://dropwireless.io
Pro: Blockchain w/ LoRaWAN, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and more services.  A lot of options for users.
Con: They openly WANT to collect metadata and use it for AI machine learning.  This company should stop pretending to care about blockchain and just be a gig economy company.  Maybe they’re trying to get around laws by masquerading as decentralized.

Karrier.One
https://karrier.one/
Pro: WiFi and cell service peer to peer
Con: Tries to comply with telecom regulations by tying blockchain identity to government phone numbers.

ThreeFold
Pro: GrapheneOS phones with decentralized service network.
Con: Spread out too thin on capital.  Why are you selling pre-orders of phones if you need millions of dollars to do a network also?  We already got Graphene phones, just sell/give us the new tech.

⬆Fees for inclusion in the next block are up 40% over the average in the past 2016 blocks. ⬆ I'm betting that before this epoch ends we'll see some lower fees.

Nostr is an Open Source, Decentralized and Censorship-Resistant social media network with ties to Bitcoin. Here are the basic things you'll need to know to get up and running. #freedom #technology #nostr

. nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6  has a lot of awesome nostr projects that don’t get enough attention:

- khatru: super modular relay library. Can be used to build lots of cool relay experients such as https://pyramid.fiatjaf.com
- Eventstore: an abstraction around nostr databases, one backend is very similar to nostrdb/lmdb called badger https://github.com/fiatjaf/eventstore
- njump: cool static note renderer that uses eventstore as its database https://github.com/fiatjaf/njump
- Nostr-tools: the swiss army knife of nostr javascript libraries https://github.com/nbd-wtf/nostr-tools
- Nak: command line tool for creating nostr events and bech32 nostr objects (nevent, nprofile) https://github.com/fiatjaf/nak
- wikistr: a wikipedia-style nostr client https://github.com/fiatjaf/wikistr

he doesn’t always like being in the spotlight but the work he does is some of the most important for the overall health of the protocol. thank you fiatjaf! Excited for what’s in store for next year 🎉


Protocols take time to adopt, but they don't die easily & Nostr doesn't rely on any company or person. That's the beautiful of nostr.

This year, we built a lot of cool stuff. Now, we have to polish them, make them more useful and user-friendly.

Even if only one app succeeds, the entire Nostr will succeed. keep building & improving.


Added NIP-50 search to relays and relay sets on Nostrrr.

The Nostr experiment will teach us that:

1. Entrepreneurship is HARD. Beware survivorship bias.
2. VC money doesn't guarantee success. It just means you have more to burn through.
3. You have to cultivate a brand to rally support
4. You HAVE to charge. Free only amounts to more free. Paying = signal. That's not to say that you can't have some free, but someone has to pay and signal for desired features.
5. You HAVE to do marketing. Build it and they will come is a fallacy. Only works on rare occasions when you build something truly spectacular. Ideal marketing split is AT MINIMUM 50/50 build/hustle to get the word out.
6. People lie. They say one thing but do another. Back to payment = signal.
7. What developer values ≠ what users value
8. Building something truly unique can work against you because new concepts are harder to explain. Familiar = less selling required.

Did I miss anything?


One year ago on Dec 28 I bought the nostr.band domain and decided to focus on Nostr.

It's been an amazing journey! I've met incredible people, assembled a small team and we are building tools and products to help Nostr win.

Thank you everyone who supported our efforts and used Nostr.Band!

We've made lots of updates to our advanced search features recently, and will be making them even better in 2024.

Excited to see what's going to be the next page of Nostr!


please no, the last thing nostr needs is to be associated with token scams. 200k would be great but this feels wrong. Is this is what it has come to? 😑 https://i.nostr.build/kJeA.jpg


Introducing Mempool Goggles!

Have you ever wished you had x-ray specs to see exactly what's inside the mempool?

No, me neither, but we built you a pair anyway.

Click on the Mempool Goggles icon at the top left of the mempool block visualization to reveal the new filter menu.

There are 25 different categories to explore, or mix-and-match to narrow down your focus even further.

Want to see how much of the mempool is occupied by monkey jpegs? Try the "Inscription" filter.

Curious how many transactions use both RBF and CPFP to bump fees? Hit the "Replacement" and "Pays for parent" filters.
