Ok, would Linode work?

They would. Storage will be your main factor over time and that gets costly anywhere
If we partner together, we can share my lightning and bitcoin nodes too so you can offer your users wallets and zap vanity addresses . Doing this on a vps woule be too costly becsuse bitcoin needs 700gb itself
Hmm, how much do you think that would cost?
Way too much to do it on your own. Look at these prices

If we partner, we can split revenue from your lightning
I mean if we use your services, also how would be make revenue? Off of lightning addresses?
Lnbits for example, can charge any fee you like and store it in a separate wallet.
Evwry time someome zaps, 1% or whatever is transferred there
Ok, I will think about this. Thanks
Also you could do everything on your vps, nostr relay, lnbits, and use a vpn tunnel to connect to my lightning node for payment stuff
Testing lnbits.poster.place, it's cool.
Oh yeah! Works as pwa on mobile too so it appears like a app
Cool, I just did a test session with an invoice for now, sent sats then back to a ln wallet.
It is a cool setup you got going, can tell you put a lot of effort into it. 🤙
Ty. Id be happy to help you build your nostr empire
I would basically just need to know how much it would cost and what the potential problems and liabilities could be, you could be responsible for example if something goes wrong with someones wallet right?
You would need to make a good terms of service to protect yourself if you are worried about that. Maybe eve. Collecting real emails to register so you can contact your users
I suppose you could put a notice or a max amount a user can have in there right? How much do you pay per month to run everything if you don't mind me asking?
I bought all my own hardware so i cant really put a cost to it. And had to upgrad emy home internet to 1gig. It was all used for other stuff then i moved to nostr.
I paid about 1k to build new desktop server with 2 x 12 TB drives in raid 1
Oh, so you are self hosting, that's cool.
Yes. In garage
Wow sweet!
How much for you to hook up Pleb.lol with that interface and the lnbits? If I did it.
I wouldn't charge you for the installation.
What software do you want ?
I mean cost to use it with your services per month, using whatever software you are using now.
For the Lightning/Zap part, we can split the revenue 50/50 ? Have lnbits put fees in separate wallet and send me half at 1st of each month.
For the other parts: Ditto,soapbox,lnbits, and minio:
I can install all of it for you for free.
I can host it for you for $10 a month on my hardware
Or...
Install it on a VPS thst you pay for.
Sounds like a very good deal, can I transfer my current Nip05 users over?
The hardest part is getting your users to use your new wallet infrastructure because they are probably tied to other wallets
Ok, I don't care so much about getting people using that, I want nips mostly.
How would you connect to my domain? What would I need to do?
