So soon this..

What will badges be used for?

why do we need badges on nostr?

monetization that's not advertising?

Did you read the NIP?

Reading right now

I added a Motivation section

Mmm, makes sense.

So please take my question seriously 😂. What is the implication of this pr? So I can have a bravery icon on my bio after implementing of this?

Me trying to follow the devs comment thread in GitHub

WE HAVE A BADGE SPEC! I have been waiting for this. I am super excited for this!

We can use badges for a variety of situations, such as attending a conference, being an early adopter or beta tester, to participating in an event, or paying for an "orange check", the possibilities are endless.

Sick

Im in! Great idea.

Who issues the badges?

Anyone.

So how does this process work now? People open up some PRs for the nostr repo based on the spec and the one that fits the most gets merged?

Essentially, yes. It's then up to relays or clients to implement them. They aren't required.

What do relays do, and what should I do with them?

They allow users to publish their notes and events to their database and allow users to read those events that have been published.

So, how does a relay prevent malicious content from being posted and stored? What happens with photos, video, etc?

Ten minutes later and all the plebs look like this💜🧡

I’ll take a 10k TestFlight badge🤙

Will said he would do that. 🤝

Not all badge providers will be equal 😂

Ayyyyyy

🤣

ridiculous. they look like me after finishing a call of duty round. one star for shoot 10 times with the rifle.

its like science - 10 start for biontech because the poison is not working 🤣 and maybe killing - counterstar

hmmm, I just saw this. How to use badges on your profile?😅

I like this 👀

When Alby bee sting badge? 🐝

With NIP-58, users can now receive and display "badges" on their profiles for various achievements, tasks or causes. This is going to be awesome!

If somebody makes a super cool badge, i will be forced to implement this...

Just saying...

Cool idea I dig it!

You rule man! The Verified Human badge has been created and is ready to be earned! (Erm… when the app is ready. 😁)

Hope I interpreted the spec right…

Looks good to me!

Maybe keep the "d" in lower-case? I presume queries on it is case-sensitive, right?

Good catch. The query *is* case sensitive. I generally think querying ought to have a case insensitive option. Esp. for NIP5’s. For badges I’m not sure how much it will matter. It seems like most handling of these will be programmatic. But I could be wrong. Thanks for pointing it out. You’ve given me something to noodle for sure.

Thanks for that… yet another NIP to implement. I have not even added tagging yet, because you crazy people want more feature. I’ll try to get this added to Blockcore Notes very quickly.

How do I earn my first badge? I need to know!!!! #[6]

No idea what’s going on, but I’m super excited. You’ll keep me posted, right?

Lol already working on the post, its in my drafts, once I've pulled together all the info it will be up on the site so don't you worry :)

So many of your manuals got to be translated into Russian (and every other language) for the fellow comrades.

Wish I had more hours in a day! Anyways, working on those and huge thanks for your work!!!
