If you outside the USA you do not need to worry about wallet of satoshi. Only USA users do..

Wallet of Satoshi still works but outside of the USA

That’s the way lol


One of the downsides of closed source apps is you can’t see what it’s doing or file a ticket to fix bugs. This just came up with me with nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q which has a bug where it overrides your contact list if you follow someone in the yakihonne app. Hopefully it’ll get fixed fast.

In general we have a nostr problem with replacable list events and how easy it is for apps to override and whip out lists.

Pro tip 1: If you're changing your Lightning address away from Wallet of Satoshi, you may want to add the relay wss://nostr.mutinywallet.com prior to updating your profile. This relay will blast your profile changes to most relays ensuring that your changes are seen by most users across Nostr. Otherwise, relays you don't use any longer may be left with your old profile data, Lightning address and will not be aware of your changes. This means you'll still receive Zaps to your old WoS address.

Pro tip 2: As for everyone else, it may be a good idea to nuke your app cache or local app storage today or tomorrow so that you aren't using old cached versions of people's profiles. Some clients have issues with this, but not all will.


Same #Nostr fam 💜


I'm not trying to bash. If you've been in the space long enough, you've seen history repeat itself every few years. You've seen the idiotic things people have done and you've watched them pay the price for it.

You can ignore the writings on the wall and get rekt, or learn from the people sounding the alarms.

At the end, it's about personal responsibility.

Is #eNuts a custodial or a non-custodial wallet?

Well, it stands as both and neither.

In simple words, it is a client that acts as a bridge to any mint and manages #ecash tokens issued by mints in a local database in your device.

It is simply a bearer token manager. Nothing else.

The transition into a custodial wallet might happen once we introduce our own default mint but even this remains optional and therefore subject to discussion for the term custodial wallet.

To simplify the experience for newcomers, we will continue providing a default mint for now.

However, users have the flexibility to host their own independent non-custodial mints, connect it to the wallet and transform the app into a "non-custodial wallet". They can send and receive Ecash from various mints and swap between mints anytime as desired.

In essence, #eNuts users don't have to place trust in the wallet; instead, they can place trust in each other.

I knew this day would probably come, but didn't expect it so soon.

I am being investigated for running an illegal money transmission business in Canada (nodeless)

Under the advice of my lawyers I need to shut down the main instance of it.

As you guys know I made Nodeless completely open source in the event that this happens, so that others who don't live under communism can run a honest, privacy focused payments business.

To my clients who are using it, I'm very sorry for the short notice but you'll need to find a new payment processing solution this weekend.

DM me on telegram and I will personally walk you through setting up a btcpayserver instance that you can self host, or even your own instance of nodeless.

I can't give much more information than this, not even supposed to say this much, but I owe it to you guys to let you know what's going on.

To install nodeless on your own server, you can get started here:
https://github.com/nodeless-io/nodeless-monolith


Muun isn't technically a self custody Lightning wallet. Can you do Lightning? Yes, but fees can be as high as on-chain fees sometimes.


Busy day, tired!


If at all possible, reach out to people that you've orange pilled or setup with WoS in the USA and help onboard them to another wallet. They're most likely unaware of what's happening. Explain to them that WoS still works, but they'll no longer get updates in the USA and the future is uncertain because of that. Help migrate them to Phoenix, Breez, nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg or nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 so that they can be in control of their sats.

To our valued Wallet of Satoshi community in the United States of America,

We've dedicated ourselves to providing the best Bitcoin experience with Wallet of Satoshi, being at the forefront of Lightning usability and adoption. However, we've made the difficult decision to remove our app from the U.S. Apple and Google app stores, and will not serve U.S. customers going forward.

This decision doesn't come lightly. Our commitment to providing a secure, user-friendly, and compliant platform globally is unwavering. Our top priority is the safety and interests of our customers and our company.

We understand this may be disappointing news and we share your frustration. We're hopeful that future developments will allow us to revisit and possibly resume our operations in the U.S.

For our existing users in the USA, rest assured that you have full access to your Bitcoin funds. You can seamlessly withdraw and transfer them to another wallet.

We deeply appreciate your support and understanding. We remain committed to bringing the benefits of Bitcoin to as many as possible.

Stay tuned for updates, and thank you for being a part of our community.

Peace, Love and Bitcoin,
The Wallet of Satoshi Team 🧡

A few days ago I had lunch with nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc and he told me about this awesome idea:

> A relay that rejects long notes.

This morning I woke up thinking about it.

And now it's live.

wss://140.f7z.io

140-character limit. With a pretty strict moderation, so spam should be basically non-existent.

It's also sucking short notes from other relays, so it's global should be pretty useful.

Check it out!

Pixel 8 Pro flashed w/ #GrapheneOS ✅

Here's how I'm going to set it up.

User Profile 1 (named "Owner"):
- Sandboxed Google Play installed.
- SIM card and eSIM enabled for dual number.
- All KYC/true name use.
- All content potentially accessible by the State via cable hacking (e.g. cellebrite.com).
- Google Maps in incognito.
- Banking apps.
- Sharing economy apps.
- All normie usage.
- Biometrics for convenience.

User Profile 2 (named "Guest"):
- No Google Play.
- Logged out when out of the house.
- Disk-encrypted ensures content is secure.
- "I forgot the password to that user."
- All Laser/NoKYC/nym usage.
- #Bitcoin watch only wallets.
- "Political" content (freetube/banned.video/etc).
- Anything against the "current thing".
- No biometrics; strong pin/pw only.

This basic setup allows for a secondary user profile which is logged out by default, providing full disk encryption and good plausible deniability / ability to say No.

The first profile can be yieled up if necesaary. This should provide a balanced setup to travel through NPC zones like airports, or deal with an increasingly technological police stops/searches.

If for some reason I have an urgent nym/nokyc need for google play, I can install into a work profile off of the secondary user profile. Note that each different user profile and work profile multiplies the maintainence cost (running fdroid, aurora, obtainium, etc for each isolated app space).

You can onboard your friends to Nostr and allow them to automatically add your relays and your follows list, so they don't join and essentially see a void or empty feed. Just use this tool. You can even send them a URL with your npub already attached. Then,  they'll just need to upload a profile pic and tap the generate key button. And lastly, take that generated key and pop it into Amethyst, Damus, or whichever client you recommended for them to use.

We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door. https://image.nostr.build/6102eb354bd5df7b044afd59178058df35f027b2a3dfb81e6e433ee719e6d1db.jpg https://image.nostr.build/ba0870efda8a01ce9459c89f6fb4e3788764f797bd448808f3b97ada45545333.jpg

Dope!


Bostr is a new Nostr relay that bounces your  Nostr read and write events to multiple relays, allowing users on metered or mobile connections to save on bandwidth.

You could run one for yourself, your community, or for the general public.

Example: You run a Bostr relay at home and configure your mobile client to only use your home Nostr relay. While out and about, you utilize one relay, saving your mobile data, while the Bostr relay at home handles the heavy lifting and data intensive internet traffic for you, sending your notes and events out to the world.

https://github.com/Yonle/bostr


Pro/Con of Nostr Clients

Iris.to
Pro: Everyone has a web browser, so it’s easy for beginners to on-board.   Simple easy layout.
Con:  They use CloudFlare, so do NOT let the website see your private key.  You need to use the Flamingo browser extension to sign events because CloudFlare strips away httpS encryption.  Without a browser extension, it should be treated like you’re handing your private key to the US government.  You can’t view DMs using a browser extension only.  Also CloudFlare will browser fingerprint you and block Tor.

Primal.net
Pro: Fast for Tor.  I recommend this only for Tor browser.  The reason it’s fast is because you’re not getting the content from each individual relay, but it’s aggregated to their database.
Con: Primal’s model is closer to traditional social media, where they can censor content.  Beyond using this for speed on Tor, it’s dangerous centralization.

Amethyst
Pro: FOSS Android client in the F-Droid store that works on degoogled phones.  Not only is the interface just like Twitter, but they added in “sealed sender” style DMs, similar to Signal to hide metadata.
Con: Be aware that if you’re not using a degoogled phone, then the government and Google can probably get your private key.  And for the high risk “tinfoil hat” paranoid, you can’t control the Baseband modem of ANY mobile device which hackers can remotely compromise.  But for the average memer, private keys on mobile is fine.

Gossip
Pro:  This is what I’d use for famous or controversial influences with a high threat model.  Desktop Linux is supported, and it’s programmed in Rust which could potentially add security against memory corruption for poorly vetted third party images downloaded off relays.  Password lock on posting is good.
Con: No sealed sender DMs yet.  Hard to use.
Tip: You want to first try Amethyst, then graduate to Gossip when you understand that you have to enter a relay where someone posts to find them.  (hint: lookup their relays quickly on Tor via primal.net.)

Lume
Pro: Lots of features such as mapping relationships, good widgets for hashtags and topics.  Password lock is good.
Con: There’s still Linux bugs.  I can’t recommend it for Linux, as I had issues.  However, the developer has significantly improved Linux builds from just a few months ago, but it’s not there yet.

I don’t come to the #Nostr expecting anything, but if you wouldn’t mind boosting this note I’d appreciate it. 🙏

I’m one of the founders of nostr:npub1hxfkcs9gvtm49702rmwn2aeuvhkd2w6f0svm4sl84g8glhzx5u9srk5p6t, a community of noderunners on the Nostr, currently with over 340 member nodes and an active Telegram group, where we help new and experienced users connect, share knowledge, and expand the Lightning network together.

I started my journey into running a bitcoin and Lightning node in early 2021, when I was one of the first 100 members of Plebnet.

Built on a Raspberry Pi4 with 8 GB of ram, my current node, Dan on the Moon now runs 60 channels with a total capacity of nearly 175 million sats.

In early January, 2023, soon after joining the Nostr, I realized there was no organized group of noderunners, so I decided to start one along with a few other people. Within 3 months, we had reached 200 members, and are on track to double that by our one year anniversary.

Due to the current high-fee environment, my node hardware is struggling under the load. With no way to expand memory and disk space in the current configuration, it's due for an upgrade.

Because it runs Umbrel, I've decided the path of least resistance will be to purchase an Umbrel Home, which sells for $500 US, and ships with a migration assistant to seamlessly move all of the existing node data and channels.

In the future, I plan to also build a second node on custom-built components, but the current need is to keep this node stable and not end up in a situation where any of my channels get force-closed.

If I am able to raise the funds through Geyser, the node will be renamed "The Nodestrich" and will provide more stability for my channel peers, who have been some of the most supportive and helpful people I have met since I started my journey.

Thank you! 💜⚡🫂

More space to write your notes with NostrNet Notes extension.

It now also broadcasts your note to all the relays without changing your personal relays.

It currently has markdown support; I am also building a custom Text editor.

Thank you for manifesting 🙏


ZEUS will never block payment to our competitors’ wallets, disparage or belittle anyone trying push Bitcoin adoption forward, or give up on trying to ship self custodial solutions.

We will, however, continue to push the limits of what is possible on Lightning in order to provide an amazing payments experience, in a self custodial manner, for as many people as possible.

The app store release of ZEUS v0.8.0, featuring our embedded node(“the node is in the phone”), OLYMPUS LSP, self custodial Lightning addresses, and rebrand, drops in December. Much more will follow in 2024.

We’re grateful to everyone who’s come along for the ride with us and we’re excited to help onboard the next wave of Bitcoiners.

I agree that what nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 is doing right now could lead to elevated force closes. I also agree that LND is shit.
But this does not justify nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg outright blocking zaps to them in my opinion. In no case should a wallet, especially a competitor, attempt to block payments to another wallet, with no option given to users to turn it off.

Hold invoices and stuck HTLCs are still going to exist, whether nostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vg blocks nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 or not. We need proper solutions to HTLC resolution in low-uptime wallets.

Love this!! nostr:note10704xauzrerxkq8t7yz2c0vs7vw9ducc2w6tds5s7t82l6tzedpsqumdm3


We have recently disabled the ability to zap nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 wallet users from Mutiny. You may still pay their invoices or LN addresses normally but a big problem we were seeing was force closed channels due to stuck payments to Zeus due to their work arounds with locked payments. Which harm both the user experience and other lightning nodes on the network.

Since nostr users are mostly unaware if they're zapping Zeus users or not, we are taking this step proactively to protect users from having a 10 sat zap costing them serious on chain channel closing (and reopening) fees.

The approach we are working on for solving lightning addresses on mobile wallets is a fedimint hybrid approach where the sats end up at a federation if you are offline but get swept to your self custodial channel when you come online. Payments will settle instantly with the federation and it won't lock up unnecessary HTLCs on the network.

Ideally we get the ability to do offline receives normally on LN but that future is looking really grim with LND's continued priorities on shitcoins instead of features, and offline receives depends on a network wide upgrade.

We petition Zeus to move to a more responsible node implementation like LDK unless their plan is to add shitcoins or break LN further.

Good morning all, I have a new Coracle release for you. This is the kind of release that hopefully fixes more bugs than it creates — but let me know if that's not the case!

Related to this release, I've published a new NIP for reviews, since labels really weren't the right solution for them ultimately. Check it out and give feedback here: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/879

I'd also like to plug my nostr utility library, paravel, which is mostly stable, and provides some low-level utilities for connection management, subscriptions, caching, and nostr tag parsing.

https://github.com/coracle-social/paravel

# 0.3.12

- [x] Move some utilities to paravel
- [x] Add experimental DVM code
- [x] Disable NIP 24 messages for now
- [x] Use NIP 85 for relay reviews
- [x] Improve feed controls UX
- [x] Add rendering support for kind 1986
- [x] Fix publish failure detection

Zeus shows you the path of each transaction along with the name of the node, the fee charged on each hop and the amount of sats forwarded by each node.

They don't have to, because of the standards that were set by LN wallets before them.

But they do it anyway.

This is very cool.

Here's the map of the 10 sat transaction sent from my Zeus wallet to my Mutiny wallet.

Proof-of-Concept: onboardstr.vercel.app

Objective: billions must generate nostr accs

I think this should be the way we onboard 80% of ppl to nostr. i had a friend download damus then i proceeded to bore them with ‘follow this guy’ or ‘add this relay too btw’.

add your npub to the end of the onboardstr url, and when your friend generates an nsec they will have all the same follows/relays as you straightaway. instantly their feed is lively, and they can curate it themselves from there. https://image.nostr.build/a6f5d0feec8a10780414daaa180d700cd166dd3af405859dd9b023d35f6fa9e1.jpg

💜 I’m here bro


Over at damus hq we are working on a privacy preserving push notification relay. This relay will always be on when you have push notifications enabled, but will not store anything. This will allow you to connect to private relay sets and still receive push notifications, and will work for DMs that require AUTH.

Otherwise, writing to the damus relay will have the same effect as the notification relay for public situations, but if you don’t have the damus relay in your relay list notifications should still work. It’s a bit more tricky for non ios clients using the same private relay sets, we could use #nip65 to help them know to write to our notification relay, or maybe you could explicitly add the notification relay if you want your ios friends to receive notifications.

Having a relay that you can trust not to store anything is key for this to work in a wide variety of situations. iOS push notifications are an inherently centralized thing, and getting it to work in a decentralized protocol is tricky, but we think this is an interesting approach to try vs the pull model used by nos.

Okay, I’ve downloaded all the books from this website.

Next, I will start extracting text from those books, turn that into a dataset, and begin training AI models with that data.

Let’s see what happens. I will share the results.

We can also create our own library now, Nostr Library!🤔 https://image.nostr.build/3acfe12ad3b48075a3056d34ded7ec81cec56584a93693ff2a634b69a588410b.jpg  nostr:note1ej900rfw9ruuxlru98nv3lw9crs5z0gw4jgvxhwpu05726rfgq3snn940v

I am just curious. For the nostriches who has joined in the last month or so, what keeps you here? What value do you get from Nostr? 🐶🐾🤔


How Far We Have Come

November 7th 2020 FiatJaf implemented the basic relay server code

For 2 Year Nostr was churning and developing which most Gentle Plebs did not know

Thanks to Jack's spotlight 11 months ago... the fabulous flock of nostriches began their migration

Less than a year ago....

There was no Plebchain
There was no Nostr Report, Plebchain Radio let alone Nostr Nests...
There wasn't the vast ecosystem of clients
There wasn't Nostrica, Nostrasia, Nostrville, 60+ Nostr Meetup.....
There wasn’t devs in the spotlight building tomorrow so openly and transparent to the average pleb.

Less than a year ago... Think How Far We Have Come.

From Posting Lightning Invoice to Zapathons....

From Starting as Boomers to Feeling Like a Dev.

From the Algo Abyss to the Land of Community

Less than a year ago.... Think How Far We Have Come.

From Spotify to Wavlake
From Apple Podcast to Fountain App From Twitch to Zap.Stream
Stemstr, Habla.News, Flockstr, and Many, Many, Many more....

Less than a year ago.... Think How Far We Have Come.

WE are the Human Network powering Nostr, Powering Bitcoin... WE are #Plebchain.

It’s important to appreciate the distance we have traveled in such a small amount of time.

THINK HOW FAR WE WILL GO.


Nostr has a funding problem. Developers and infrastructure is severely underfunded and reliant on flawed economic models, and this could pose a risk to the future of Nostr as a protocol.

To understand it, we need to understand what resources are needed to make Nostr work, how they aren't funded properly and what could happen next.

# The costs of what makes Nostr work

Nostr works because:
1. Developers build clients on it
2. There is infrastructure to support clients

If there are no developers, there are no clients. If there is no infrastructure, clients have no purpose.

## The costs of developing a client, and the reliance on developers

Clients require time to develop the client, and money to run infrastructure for it.

Without developers, there would be no clients, and no Nostr.

Developers have lives and need to make money somehow in exchange for the time they spend. Developing a client is a significant cost, even for small ones (assuming 1 hr/day, no infrastructure costs and the average salary of a software developer, **$1500**) and needs to be covered somehow.

We have multiple models, all of which have large downsides:
1. Donations/V4V/Bounties:
   This model suffers from the problem that a minority pays for the majority, which will lead to the majority demanding exclusive benefits for their money or otherwise cutting off funding since they have no reason to pay.
   This also suffers from the fact that donations are unreliable.
2. Grants from OpenSats and similar non-profits:
  These suffer from the same problems as the donations model, but also suffer from the following problems:
    - the managers of these non-profits may have views not aligned with their donors, leading to misfunding.
    - that such projects are mostly stopgaps that add additional complexity to a direct donation model.
3. Paywalled features:
   It is very hard to find the balance between paywalling enough features to make money, and discouraging too many users from using the client. There may not even be such a sweet spot.
4. Cuts:
   It is extremely hard to balance these so that people don't complain, and it is likely that there will be forks of FOSS clients that remove these features by some users.
5. Paid clients:
   People do not want to spend a lot on services that they expect to be free or cheap, and spending $5/month on this client, $10/month on that client, so on won't scale, even though that is way less than the actual value they are getting.
6. Ads:
   Ads are usually underpaying and mostly make money for the ad companies instead of the client developers. Ads are also an invasion of privacy and may not be well received by some users.
7. VC funding:
   VCs put profit above protocol health, which may accelerate some issues that I will discuss later. They also may disincentivize the development of some apps (uncensored social media for example) for pushing their own agenda.

Even if we find some good way to fund clients, it doesn't end there...

## The cost of infrastructure

There are multiple types of infrastructure for Nostr, such as relays, services like Noswhere's search relay, push notifications, etc. All of these cost money to operate, and are the other half of what make Nostr work.

These have even more limited funding options, which have even bigger downsides:
1. Client funding:
   Clients already struggle on funding as I discussed in the previous section. This would mean infrastructure is even more underfunded.
2. User payments:
   Users do not understand the details and importance of infrastructure, and have no reason to fund it. Making this problem worse, infrastructure providers can falsely advertise their services, diverting money away from infrastructure that is higher quality and should be funded. This is already happening.
3. Grants from OpenSats and similar non-profits (*relays only*):
   Again, these suffer from problems specified in the last section about grants. These entities will likely want the highest value from their donations, therefore leading them to encouraging a few big relays than many medium sized ones. Since relays are more important infrastructure, and they could have more control, these entities can also exert more control over the network.
4. Data harvesting and selling:
   This would discourage people from using their providers, but this is likely going to happen to some extent. The issue is that it would not generate sufficient revenue for the amount of users it will drive away.

Both infrastructure and developers being underfunded can lead to issues that may kill the protocol, which I'll discuss in the next section.

# The risks of improper funding

## 1. The protocol fizzles out and dies without reaching critical mass

This is one of the less likely options since there will probably be people developing for the sake of it, but is likely. With client developers being underfunded and infrastructure shutting down, Nostr would become smaller and worse to use until it completely fizzled out except maybe a few people.

## 2. The enshittification of Nostr

This is the most likely outcome, and the worst one. As Nostr continues developing, developers and infrastructure developers will want to maximize revenue, so they will begin by making good products to attract users at a loss.

After they have a sufficiently large user base, they would slowly erode bridges to their competitors, only leaving what is required so that their users won't complain.

After this stage, it is likely that clients will start merging with other ones to make larger "everything" apps and kill the last bridges, turning them into proprietary walled gardens, returning us to where we are today.

# How do we fix this?

I have no idea. Please share your opinions if you do :)

Or, the most likely way for nostr to die.

goodbye tokyo, its been a blast 👋

Today is the end of a month long trip spreading the word about nostr: from pacific bitcoin to bitcoin amsterdam, bitcoin indonesia and finally #nostrasia

It was amazing to travel literally around the planet, talking to people about nostr and onboarding many new nostriches. Showing the world this amazing technology is just as important as building, so I am thankful for many of these conferences for flying me out and giving me the opportunity to speak.

I’m looking forward to a regular routine again, I need a conference detox 😅. So much to code, we still need to get the rest of the planet onboard. Let’s get building! https://i.nostr.build/2BYP.jpg


Here's a classic recipe for Irish Coffee:

https://images.nightcafe.studio/jobs/ZudQEkhEneSUSJnlBmOY/ZudQEkhEneSUSJnlBmOY--1--y7ece.jpg?tr=w-1080,c-at_max

**Ingredients:**
- 1 cup of hot brewed coffee
- 1 1/2 ounces of Irish whiskey
- 2 teaspoons of brown sugar (adjust to taste)
- Freshly whipped cream
- Coffee glass or mug

**Instructions:**
1. Brew a cup of hot coffee.
2. While the coffee is brewing, warm your coffee glass or mug by filling it with hot water. Let it sit for a minute, then pour out the water.
3. Add the brown sugar to the warm glass.
4. Pour the hot brewed coffee over the sugar and stir until it's dissolved.
5. Add the Irish whiskey and give it another gentle stir.
6. Carefully pour the freshly whipped cream over the back of a spoon so that it floats on top of the coffee mixture. The cream should rest on the surface; don't stir it in.
7. Enjoy your Irish Coffee while it's still hot!

The contrast between the hot coffee and the cold, floating cream is what makes Irish Coffee so delightful. It's the perfect way to warm up and relax. Enjoy responsibly! ☕🇮🇪

Largely, compassion (heart) for self and others is more effective than logic. But the ego (brain) wants to understand what it is sometimes not meant to, creating destructive loops.

Using the heart to realize we are each on a healing journey no matter how it looks on the outside (no one can understand our journey fully and we cannot understand another’s fully), we free ourselves from over analysis leading to destructive loops.

By choosing to go in/heal with compassion for ourselves and others (esp those who have hurt or ‘wronged’ us), we can free ourselves from the brain/ego. All we can really ever control is ourselves and heart allows us to have the ability to find our own freedom. Meditation / breath / somatic work helps.

** TheSameCat's relay is now available over Tor **
We have checked to make sure we were not incidentally blocking Tor traffic (we were not) and we have also configured a Tor Onion Service address, for bypassing DNS level blocks of our relay.

You may now sign up at: http://2jsnlhfnelig5acq6iacydmzdbdmg7xwunm4xl6qwbvzacw4lwrjmlyd.onion

~and~

You can add ws://2jsnlhfnelig5acq6iacydmzdbdmg7xwunm4xl6qwbvzacw4lwrjmlyd.onion to your relay list in your client, if you usually use Nostr with Tor.

This was tested using Orbot + Damus and worked very smoothly. Please let me know if you have connection issues.

We believe in supporting censorship-resistant, free speech and privacy protecting technologies as we are able. We will be looking into i2p in the coming weeks.

Three years ago today, nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 made the very first commit to begin working on the Nostr protocol. Since then, Nostr has grown into a thriving ecosystem of applications and communities, enabling people all over the world to communicate freely and without censorship.

Nostr is a shining example of what's possible when people come together to build a better future. It's a testament to the power of open source software, open protocols, and the resilience of the human spirit.

On this special day, we celebrate Nostr's developers, contributors, and our fellow Nostriches. We thank you for making Nostr a reality.

Nostr is the future of decentralized and censorship resistant communication!

Congratulations bro 💜


I have been quiet lately, but it is for some good reason.

I am turning my medical device company ( eyenetra.com ) into an open-source project.

As some of you may know, I spent the past 15 years trying to increase access to eyeglasses by developing and shipping a new class of vision-testing devices. Even though we shipped thousands of units and served millions of patients, Nostr made me realize what I was missing all along: true decentralization.

All of our hardware designs and software will be made available to the FOSS community to build their own vision-testing devices and services. And I am going to be working with design/manufacturing partners across the globe to bring them to the market in as many variations as we can.

It has been a long process but I finally have all approvals to make it happen. Thanks to all my shareholders who believed in this idea and allowed me to make it happen.

The future is bright.

https://primus.news

Been wanting to get this project live for a while!

Primus News aims to focus on news with two qualities:

1. Actionable: news that you can act on in your daily life, things that have a meaningful answer to the question "what can I do with this information?"

2. Direct from the source: when news comes directly from the primary source, you get the most accurate picture of the information, rather than getting a version that's been manipulated to fit a news agency's financial/ideological goals.

My aim is to source this news directly from the RSS feeds of the entity that's reporting it.

This is also a Progressive Web App, so it can be installed on your phone by:

iOS: tapping the share button in the browser and tapping "add to home screen"

Android: tapping the 3 dot menu and tapping "install"


As morning dawns
a body stirs,
responding to the light sliding through drawn curtains,
lids fluttering, a body shivering
in pleasure of the good feelings surging,
another fine day,
for thanks and praise.

#DancingBetweenTallGrass
#goodmorning


Android, PC, and Mac users can now easily turn the NostrNet.work website into an app (PWA) with just one click.

If your browser doesn't support this, you can simply use the traditional 'Add to homescreen' option.

In one year, investing in nostr businesses will not be absolutely batshit crazy anymore. nostr:note1vgpj2ghdtza9fq4zzwduze4fkzys6gd5l9vlpgnhfd2a4engvkxs5njm92


The best technology is the technology that we don't even notice. When Nostr reaches the point where it is so seamlessly integrated into our social lives that it fades into the background, it will experience explosive adoption and growth. We have spent the past two years building a solid technical foundation, and we are now ready to focus on creating a user experience that is as intuitive and enjoyable as possible. 2024 is shaping up to be a year of tremendous progress for Nostr.

Here is a very brief video demo of Creatr, our new Patreon-style relay + file host for creators. Lots more to come and many other features to share, but wanted to get something out so you can see how it works with a nostr client and browser extension.

I’ve historically not been a phone case enjoyer, but decided to try one for my new phone. The dbrand Ghost is excellent. And their marketing is genius.

Hey all, I would just like to share this cool FREE feature by nip0.5.social!

Apart from getting a new nip05, you can use nip05.social for lightning address forwarding. In this way, you can retain your nip05.social address (i.e disturbia@nip05.social) while changing the underlying address if you need to.

what is even nicer is that the nip05.social nip now works as an email too! For now, it allow inbound email only.

try it out! email me at disturbia@nip05.social .

ps : dont forget to tip the dev!

We are doing a #Zapraiser today, our goal: 250k sats. We will also send 5k sats to someone who reposts and tags a friend. Sats will go to the fund to help plebs in need. Thanks and remember to repost.

on the second flight I finished writing the implementation (and modifications to NIP-46) to make the following possible:

1. Alice goes to App A (e.g. Coracle) -- she clicks "create account" and gets a NIP-05 "alice@somesite.com". She uses Coracle as she normally would.

2. Alice goes to App B (e.g. Primal) -- she clicks "login" and types in "alice@somesite.com". A popup comes up and asks Alice if she wants to authorize this application to access her account. In an advanced setting She can scope down what the application can do (e.g. only create short notes but don't change the profile data)

At no point is there any mention of nsec, npub, keys, NIP-07, nsecbunker. Nothing. It just works.

i used to think communication was the key until i realized comprehension is. you can communicate all you want with someone but if they don’t understand you or refuse to understand, communication is useless.

Everyone just 🫂 and keep building 💜


Thanks for a reasonable and nuanced take as always Derek. 🫂💜

To answer your question, Primal users can choose whether they want to see NSFW content in their feeds and/or in the trending side bar. The default is that NSFW content shows in the feeds, but not in the trending side bar. This is an easy setting for users to flip.

We are working on a more sophisticated solution where NSFW content will be categorized on a per-note bases (not per-user basis). nostr:npub12z8jsett3k6rv9fa2guau5p540qr2xuvjzkr8e432mglafjt99sqkw9zmx is a perfect example of an account that posts lots of interesting content with a few occasional NSFW notes. Our new system would make it possible for her regular content to trend by default.

A lot of criticism we get can be summarized as "why isn't Primal perfect today?!". We are building and improving things every day. Everything we've done has always been transparent. Happy to engage in good faith, but Semi obviously hasn't been willing to do that. Faking this advisory to generate outrage is obviously over the top. Excusing his behaviour looks a bit weird to me tbh.


*deep sigh*

I feel Semi's intent here is good, but the execution is bad. He is correct, that Onyx is unable to trend on Primal because of Primal's filters, right? This warning message may not show to Onyx, but that doesn't negate the fact that these terms do apply to her, right?

Is it a dick move to create this fake image? Yes. Absolutely! Is it a dick move to remind people that this is actually happening? No.

Again, I think the execution is bad here
Let's fix that.

Hey nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr my man. If a user such as Onyx always uses the NSFW hashtag on their more risque images, would that help to remove them from being filtered from trending? Hmm. I'll answer this myself, probably not, because she could accidentally forget once and that would slip through the filter. So, that's not a good fix.

What about ML? At some point in the future when time and budgets permits, would you consider using ML to tag and filter images? If the ML determines it's risque or NSFW image, don't trend it. I'm sure it's not hard to train a model to look for nudes or lots of skin. Thoughts?

Lastly, no one has a perfect answer for every issue. We're all trying to make Nostr the best that we can. Some of us just build and communicate differently.

I do wish that Semi spent a little more time building all that we've discussed instead of spending his energy on this.

Anyways. Let's go us. Bullish on all of us. Fuck yeah Nostr.

🤙🏻🫂💜


Remember nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj, the originator of the Primal cEnSoRsHiP and ShAdOwBaNnInG narrative?

Check out his latest work below. He took the time to create a fake Primal content advisory. Even put in the effort with the border gradient to make it look real. Then he got nostr:npub1ezw0xm0w52rd4yfdg9zlw9qvwdy46alzelklkefptrd203m37tuq4djmeg to post this and boosted to create outrage. Kinda similar playbook as the original attack a couple of months ago.

The sad part is that many people take him seriously. We got some questions yesterday, so I’ll repeat again here. The image below is 100% FAKE. Primal does not display content advisories.

As for nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj, dude are you okay? Seriously concerned for you. You are a talented developer, why waste your cycles on such negativity? Find something productive to work on. This is Nostr; that level of hate does not vibe here. Pura vida. 💜☀🫂

Hey everyone! 👋

We are rebuilding Plebstr completely from ground up to offer new super cool unique features 🔥

All of this takes time and that is why there weren’t many updates lately and because of that the TestFlight version of Plebstr expired. We will release a new TestFlight version (without much changes for now) within two days so you can continue using it 🙏

Thank you all for ongoing support and get ready for what is coming 😎

The delay of this is largely my fault 🙈 I overcommitted to other projects and dropped the ball. BUT - we really are almost done 🙃

Very excited about this one.

nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft says the #1 reason for using nsecBunker is so that companies can find out who posted a dick pic on the company account 😆 #nostrasia


imagine if you wanted to get on twitter and you had to install another app, made by someone else, with different branding, just to use it. nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn #nostrasia

im going to keep saying this until it happens. technology works best when it fades into the background and the users don't even know what's happening nor are they aware of what technology they're using. they don't care about how the sausages are made. they just know that they're delicious.


“What do we do about free speech when it is so widely abused? We should still do, with renewed vigor, what we have always needed to do: to answer bad speech with better speech, to counter false narratives with better narratives, to answer hate with love, and to believe that the truth can still succeed even in an age of lies. We must defend it fiercely and define it as broadly as possible, so, yes, we should of course defend speech that offends us; otherwise we are not defending free expression at all. Let a thousand and one voices speak in a thousand and one different ways.” ~Salman Rushdie

I came to Nostr for the first time in February as a no-coiner.

I stayed on Nostr because of bitcoin.

Keep talking about bitcoin.

The Nostr protocol can be split into 3 separate interoperability layers:

1. Core event data structure with canonicalization, hashing, sign and verify operations

2. Relay network publishing, filters, and authentication with expected client/relay behaviors and event kind ranges.

3. Event kind registry: kinds, common tags, expected behaviors, encrypt / decrypt operations, etc.

There is only one way of implementing 1. This is what defines Nostr as a social-first protocol and the reason we are all here.

There are a few possible protocols for 2. The relay network is our layer-1, but there will be others.

There are thousands of options on 3. Here is where apps shine.

GM.

We are devastated that we couldn’t make it to Nostrasia, but nostr:npub1qlkwmzmrhzpuak7c2g9akvcrh7wzkd7zc7fpefw9najwpau662nqealf5y and I are using the time to work on our Patreon Relay project.

Great man thanks 💜


SimpleX is based around queues. Instead of pushing everything to a relay and have it stay there forever, you push messages into a queue that eventually gets consumed by the person you’re sending the messages to. They exist on the relay temporarily and they are encrypted. Cool part is that there are no long-term “addresses” or “pubkeys” to send the message to, so spam is much harder.

I think nostr could learn a lot from this protocol, I believe we can use something like this to strengthen use cases on the nostr side. I am building a SimpleX rust library to learn the protocol further, and will be looking into how we can leverage it in our apps.

Discussed with the team this morning about building a dedicated translation service within damus (free). We think this is important enough that everyone should have access. Universal translator 🖖

Please  Read:

When I joined nostr, I could tell something was different about it. It wasn't like other social media platforms that I had used and it seemed special.

When I was first using it however, I did not get the full importance of it like I do now. Here on nostr people are actually nice and don't call you mean things all day.

Recently I wanted to do something to make a difference here which is why I launched nostr:npub1al9gzs93pcj3cuu3vltt7wvnhy8papcpd7ccn6rmna3xs23m6lnqhxsa8k .

I am proud to say that between Here and nostr:npub1al9gzs93pcj3cuu3vltt7wvnhy8papcpd7ccn6rmna3xs23m6lnqhxsa8k I am fast approaching 5 Million Sats sent. I couldn't have done that without you all.

Thanks a lot nostr. ❤

Clearing the cache on Damus fixed the missing profile pics for me, if anyone has the issue.
