Bitcoin is the new philosopher King.

Never been there. How’s it??

I’ve spoke with Kinjal from 2020 and she’s passionate and sharp.

In the end they didn’t invest in $mask which means slip away an100m$ opportunity for their LPs haha. However blockchain cap as a VC firm is very professional and did generate good cash.

On bluesky- i do believe Kinjal’s open, nice and long term — but I’m afraid she personally has not made enough money to really pursuing a super long term goal (build an open social network is time consuming and sometimes against making money). Many nostr Dev or open social OGs have made money and strong connections in Btc or their Web2.0 stocks and ventures - that’s a requirement for any long term commitment and patience.

Iris now supports secret chats that don't leak metadata, implementing the https://hrfbounties.org/ bounty #3. It works also for group messaging.

It's a quick & dirty solution, but works. A shared nostr account is created for the secret chat / group. Its nsec can be shared via link, qr code or invite message from a single-use anonymous account.

Users can then communicate using the shared account's messages-to-self. Iris signs the inner messages with your own key, but the arrangement could be used for anonymous group messaging as well.

I'll also add inner message encryption at some point, so you can ensure that only certain group participants can read the message.

This arrangement doesn't introduce any new event kinds and works also in clients that haven't implemented a special UX for it. You can just log in with the nsec and message yourself.

I had to disable the Iris social graph filter to let invites through, so now Iris DMs are open to spam again, but I'll try to figure out a better solution.

As always, the UX needs a lot of attention, but I believe here's an MVP.

Screenshots:

Alice wants to message Bob:

Alice sends a secret chat invite to Bob:

Bob automatically follows the invite from Alice. They can now message each other in the secret chat:

Here's how the invite looks in another client. I will add an "nostr:ninvite" URI in addition to the nsec.

Pretty cool!! How long did you spend to knock this out?:)
