🚀 TollGate pay-as-you-go internet access on open networks. Powered by Cashu.

The TollGate WiFi-router runs a Nostr relay + clients for handling payments. The TollGate app pays for internet-access with eCash over nostr!

The flow:

- User taps connect (connect button will be automated)

- Tollgate App suggests tollgates to connect to (Android notification)

- User taps connect

- User taps sign-in

- The app handles payment and prevents captive portal from opening

Unfortunately some Android OS level restrictions requires quite some taps to connect 😕.

This can be 100% automated on computers! Imagine opening up your laptop in any coffeeshop and you just have internet instantly!

So cool!

What in the what?

It's a project that turns any hackable router into a money-earning machine.

Those routers will also be able to buy access from eachother (permissionless) and that way build out sovereign networks. There's no real difference between my phone buying access or another router doing it.

👀

Awesome.

What is happening?! I can't keep up with development 🫣

WOW!

Amazing work! This creates a free market for telecommunications which means we’ll see even more innovation and investment in infrastructure.

The dream:

- install grapheneos + Nostr client + Breez/Zeus

- top up Lightning and Cashu wallets

- use tollgates

- travel freely; no eSIM required

The future is bright.

Imagine...

Wow! einfach nur Wow!🤩 🤩 🤩

This is the coolest thing I’ve seen this year so far. Awesome job.
