The main problem for technically-competent users who run a home node is bypassing the home NAT and configuring a domain, because Tor is unstable and many smartphone wallets don’t support .onion addresses.
That’s why we need http-over-nostr and lnurls/lightning-addresses that encode “.nostr” domains:
What about hole punching?
Does https://holesail.io/ help here?
Interesting, but doesn’t this need some centralized coordinator to match the clients to the servers (via the “connector” string)?
What happens if I try running a server with the same connector string as someone else? Is it encrypted?
The lnurl/lightning-address protocols are based on small json payloads. It will be simple for every smartphone wallet to send them as “nostr dms” (with a different ephemeral kind), it will be encrypted, and will also be reliable if you use multiple relays.
