I'd recommend looking into nostr:nprofile1qqsgha3fk023ng8c4quszdayghqwkt6l9d9ga4c3280gnqz3aqqx7ycts6nzx if you haven't already. Pay-per-use with cashu/lightning, no accounts, no registrations, API access to any model that you can imagine 😃
Hey Nostriches.
Build something cool. Here's an API key:
VENICE-INFERENCE-KEY-O7Rcb8toRQ3F468aQWxIt4j-9zp64hfmiDz7m16UjY
(Not stolen, it is mine, will work until someone consumes the credits - credit limit resets every day at midnight and until the end of February ).
I recommend using Kimi 2.5 or cheaper models, you will burn the tokens very fast with Opus 4.5 or so. Pricing here (so you know how much you're burning):
https://docs.venice.ai/overview/pricing
Rules:
- not many, be mindful of others and me, don't do anything crazy and unethical
- The credits are not unlimited, if you can afford them or have a subscription, use that, this is to enable people who can't afford a subscription to use premier models (Opus, GPT-5.2, Kimi 2.5, ...)
Recommendation: Create something cool. Nostr / Bitcoin / Freedom expanding code. Pull requests. Open source software. Art. Whatever. Bless us with your creations 😃
Posting what you created as a reply is appreciated, as are zaps. Have fun!

I know about it. Pretty cool. I'll try to become a provider.
I like Venice's model with DIEM tokens. Refreshing daily credit as long as you hold the token (1 DIEM = 1$ of inference per day). I like that I can run all these models without additional cost. It's basically upfront capital investment.
