Digital product sales would be a great use case for nostr and lightning payments.

Imagine the ability to sell any digital product on any client that implements that. Youโ€™d have all the typically siloed marketplaces on one protocol.

I believe this would be a very powerful concept that displaces many traditional platforms.

A step beyond that is physical goods.

I really wish someone would tackle this. And make it work on any website as an embed (gumroad style) or even as a standalone client for starters.

None of the solutions Iโ€™ve seen are there yet. Diagon Alley is the closest but needs additional work imo.

Biggest issue I see is file hosting / delivery mechanism. Need a way to deliver content automatically and privately across clients.

Interesting...

Nostr can be our online infrastructure ๐Ÿ˜Š

This #[0]

I'd love to see this!

Btw there is a 10 million sat bounty on this: https://bountsr.org/nostr-marketplace/

Isnโ€™t that what #[3]โ€‹ is experimenting with?

Yes, Iโ€™ve been chatting with Ben and shared my thoughts.

We should be cultivating a community of cooperation and mutual learning in the design and not just the code of nostr.

What do you have in mind for this?

Just encouraging folks in the nostr design telegram to share links to Figma I guess.

Shut that group down and post EVERYTHING here. Helps us, helps them, everyone wins. Already suggested this but old habits die hard.

Told the same to bitcoin design. Who are we hiding from?? I just donโ€™t get it.

Bravo

we need channels in more places

Nah. Hashtags already a thing and followable.

I think we need more formal groups the way subreddits, telegram groups, mailing lists, or even Facebook groups help provide an anchor and space for gathering. Itโ€™s easy to do on nostr but we need models, some code, and client support.

Itโ€™ll happen but we can start now. Publishing a post in a sec.

*doesnโ€™t use hashtag in the post in a sec ๐Ÿ˜
