Welcome J9! Great to have you here 🙌
I ran into some difficulties. I set it up but for some reason it doesn't seem to be considered valid... Can't figure out what's wrong:
https://n.btcbb.me/.well-known/nostr.json set up with:
{ "names": { "bitcoinbellybutton": "npub1nemykkw0jtwaf4038vpcfv4g22r2qnfm66tsu90gjsjf68skphuqv6h5rp" } }
Any suggestions?
yep, you used your npub instead of hex format
or…. run a small private relay for yourself and never worry about it
More of a faux pas than anything else, not in the spirit of the protocol. Also can't advertise relays, but I guess you can add support for that in the future
When you don't self host you also miss out on the possibility to advertise your preferred relays
The downside of using hosted NIP-05 verification services like nostrverified and nostr-check is that they dump literally all their users in nostr.json - not great not terrible. Self host your own nostr.json, it's really not that hard.

Sooner or later this is bound to happen. L1 will eventually be too expensive for that usage. Adopt LN.
Any good docs on how to setup an LN address for an existing self hosted node?
Nostr DMs are already encrypted! The main problem is massive metadata leakage through relays
Added main relay recommendations on my NIP-05 JSON
