Not asking for myself. But how could Satoshi himself have gotten any open source development support? Or an anonymous team doing for example, coinjoin/mixing, etc? We need an ecosystem that can support anonymous developers without them running away with it.

I’m just learning about NOSTR, and it seems to provide an answer to your valid question.

Her comments and commitment included other own source dev that are irrelevant to me.

I like your project btw Nobu. Have you seen this NIP yet? Looks a lot like what you're building

Thanks. I didn’t see this particular one, but I know of Mostro and RoboSats. I also know of a few efforts to try to standardize order formats on top of Nostr. I guess n3xB is one of them.

Main difference I see is n3xB wants to establish a neutral protocol that uses nostr as the primary database. Where-as most other efforts are existing P2P trading solutions trying to have some level of inter-compatibility with each other, and using Nostr as a cache or backup to their central trade coordinators.

I see it as trying to make Mastodon work with Blue Sky, instead of creating Nostr. Still hoping for a Nostr like, common neutral protocol first approach to P2P solutions, along with a intercompatible layered approach. I took the first stab at it by creating a defined spec and a base library implementation. Will see if the developer community think this is a worthwhile approach vs the likes of Mostro/RoboSats etc that already exists
