We need an escrow lightning wallet for bounties with a verifiable public balance and an automated spend trigger to the dev when a claim (Nostr Event) is accepted (Nostr Event) by the author or a refund when the author cancels (Nostr Event) the bounty.
New NIP?
#[2] DLC?
#[2] - could nostrocket potentially assist with something like this?
This should be a custodial wallet... with verifiable balance right?
I think so, the author will have to decide to pay the dev (anyone) or refund. I am not sure if there is a way to force the receiver.
Custodial is not ideal because it might trigger tax events for the author. Let's see if we can find a way around it.
NAP + reserve its kind IDs.
(Nostr Application Proposal)
Not something that needs protocol-wide support / implementation.

Most NIPs are not protocol-level proposals. They are just guidance for clients to implement the same features everywhere.
I'd like to Amethyst to interact with this proposal, for instance.
The NIPs are getting kind of overwhelming to follow. I think a lot of these app-level NIPs are almost more akin to an open API that could just be discussed and documented in their own repo/site.
Keep a master listing of reserved kind IDs, but then point elsewhere for the details.
Meanwhile the more protocol-level NIPs remain as NIPs but with less clutter to sort through.
Also, given where we hope this all will go, it's not really reasonable to think that every possible use case can or should be defined in one place.
I find it’s good to take a break from nips for awhile
And sometimes the irl nips take a break from us. 😭
Our discussions at #nostrica have really inspired me to take a deep look at NIPs... writting down my conclusions and will ask both of you for review & counsel.
that's kinda the problem though. nips should just be protocol level stuff.

Could an auction be setup by which bids on an item exceeding a set price have percentages distributed to developers?
A donation also being an entry into the auction escrow to protect the bidding from spam. Skin in the game destined to developers/organizations.
I saw some options out there with paddle and scarcecity, but I was hoping for an auction engine from a nostr client. An open market?
Reputation from the seller would have to be earned of course.
Seller could have skin in the game as well. Some percentage of the value of max bid before proceeds are split to FOSS development.
We also need a way to track if a bounty has been started/attempted.
Maybe multiple people/teams at the same time with a single winner is ok, however particularly for smaller bounties it would be very easy for multiple people to start and finish without knowing until they attempt to claim.
May need some kind of hold time window however, as otherwise someone could start and never finish.
Yeah, i think I will build a side menu for Bounties so people can keep track of their promises
a nip isnt needed. just build it.
