Although if you read the WebSocket RFC 6455.. “The WebSocket Protocol is an independent TCP-based protocol. Its only relationship to HTTP is that its handshake is interpreted by HTTP servers as an Upgrade request.”

The video is still problematic though as they start by adding relays by DNS so it is in no way independent of DNS..

True, yet we all use web servers to do our WS and handshake with HTTP 🐶🐾😂

I wasn’t trying to reinvent TOR. I was only trying to allow plebs who run their own home nodes to create static lnurls and share them, without the friction of buying a domain, a static ip address, bypassing the home NAT, or depending on a single provider with a single domain.

Don’t we have cashu nuts for that, I am not sure if that works in this case, but would be interesting to know 🐶🐾🫡

I must admit that I haven’t fell through the cashu rabbit hole yet. 😅

Can you make on your home node the cashu equivalent for a static lnurl-pay? Without buying a domain and without TOR? How does the initial communication happen?

I have no idea TBH, in the same boat as you 🐶🐾🤣
