Discussion
We should probably design a NIP for this to avoid sharing outside the relay. It could be really simple:
1. Main event with full text encrypted with a secret.
2. Each subscriber receives an encrypted event with the secret.
Clients put 1 and 2 together and open the content seamlessly.
1 and 2 can be rebroadcasted at will.
Interesting. What if we wanted to offer historical access to a new subscriber? We would have to iterate over all of the creator content and then create #2 events for each #1 event? Also, how do we revoke access to the content once the subscription lapses if #2 has been rebroadcasted?
In either case it improves on today, just thinking…
Correct. You would create #2 events for the past content.
To revoke access, we can make the events replaceable so that at any point, you can rotate the secret. You will need to update #1 and all #2 events, though. Those who didn't get the update cannot decrypt the content anymore.
Totally worth doing in my mind.
I can’t think of any successful creator subscriptions/memberships, where the content is solely text.
There are two kinds of text focused that seem common - either early access/preview to a post for members, or pay to read below the fold. However, they largely depend on media too.
#[2] did you have ideas on restricting access to media (images/videos) in the same way, when they are referenced in those events? Would it likely mean additional N events are needed per file? And that’s likely still dependant on the file storage NIP.
I’m prototyping a CDN approach that’s more web/dns focused. If there’s a better approach, I’d likely change focus.
新しい relay が出来るのか。サブスクライブした人にだけ配信できる、ppv も見れる、って感じの配信者用 relay って感じかな？
Yes, a new relay where users can subscribe to creators and unlock their content. We hope to start onboarding creators/publishers very soon.
