Want your own NIP05 address?

For about 20000 sats per year you can cover the cost of your own domain name and use free hosting providers like github to serve up the file for NIP05 using easy to follow guides.

NIP05 is not verification. Its a cross check from a nostr client to a website that presumably the referenced user controls. Unfortunately, most users do not self manage their own NIP05. Having someone else provide your NIP05 domain puts them in custodial control.

This is very low hanging fruit for people to do themself and can be a fun weekend project.

I wish more people wanted to do things like this themselves. It's such a rewarding thing having direct control of your digital identity.

Not a single person I know in my life puts any value on knowing anything about how the Internet works, self hosting, or even computers in general. I think it's so cool and just don't get how so many people don't care.
