Hllo,

I like nostr and wonder why its not been vibed into existence yet.

Identity, database and payments all ready to go is killer. Odell touched on this recently on WBD.

So recently I tried to create nostr airbnb after struggling to find a sublet.. Theres so many scam and shitty websites trying to gain network effect. So I thought I might try to leverage nostrs interop network effect.

Heres that attempt:

Restr - nostr-stay.replit.app ( work in progress - open source soon - follow along)

This process got me thinking more about Identification. To be honest, I'm not sure nostr can really become what we need it to be without some layer of identity verification. At some point you want to get passed the fact that anyone can make infinite accounts. To build a business on top of this most will need to work with real humans and easily filter the bot problem.

Ive got a fairly out there location based solution that may just be dumb enough to work. (not a cryptogropher)

Anyway just wanted to say hi and see if this reaches anyone. Ill post more info on these two ideas as I go.
