It's a less secure version of ShockWallet's UX that uses Nostr to sync state and device tokens... and it doesn't use flakey ecash
unified balance where my money is saved on relays
this is a "nostr balance" that will follow me around on any nostr app
and I just zapped nostr:npub1vwymuey3u7mf860ndrkw3r7dz30s0srg6tqmhtjzg7umtm6rn5eq2qzugd without having to connect nostr-wallet-connect
it just works, no QR codes, no secrets, nothing... your nsec gives you access to your money
Totally back-asswards way of doing this, if ECash mints want to copy ShockWallet and Lightning Pub do it correctly with remote signing and device tokens
By not being an extension, it's a software remote signer, management dashboard, and widget any developer can embed
Yea this will just help have them not get compromised in the first place, there's no graceful way to recover from that... Gotta repoint everyone
Update for it coming to ShockWallet next week
Apps will be able to paste in a widget so no browser extensions needed, allowing for an enterprise class UX and management tools
Soon

Pleased to announce we'll be giving Pub demo's and can help you set up a Lightning node to share with friends, families and customers, easily over Nostr.
Come see us at @TheBitcoinConf Makerspace next month!
But they can't shut down your shitcoin -free lightning.pub
DNS can't rug your lightning.pub
ShockWallet.app and lightning.pub been doing this awhile, without shitcoins
Nope, some sister cos and I'm friendly with the founders, but I'm not part of this in any way
I'd probably accept new methods PR in the kind 21000 proto, but if they want to waste their time on shitcoins they may as well waste it on NWC
Small brain thinking
There are ~300 undecillion ip6 addresses, each is a peer we need to scale to obviously
Nostr is the b2b settlement layer for notes
Scaling will be done through custodial enote mints
This rationale highlights my issues with it
Custody of small amounts (credit) is inevitable in an economic sense, but ECash isn't additive to that at all, while ECashers position them as synonymous despite solving the wrong problems inhibiting broader adoption of Bitcoin as a MoE
It's not more programmable than any other database, it's actually much worse because of the the abstraction from the underlying asset
The privacy benefits are farcical, particularly in the context of small nodes, and treating it as a new payment spec is deleterious to interoperability
If the goal is to have shared friends and family nodes for Bitcoin as a MoE, then Lightning.Pub is superior to mints in every way
My view is very simple: not your keys, not your bitcoin. Calling these e-cash tokens self custodial is the biggest cope I've seen.
If you keep up with nostr:npub1xvtwx6tduaxnn9v3y7uasskl277achgu0tu2qncmc7hdsz6y2zyqce64sa and nostr:npub1f4www6qjx43mckpkjld4apyyr76j3aahprvkduh9gc5xec78ypmsmakqh9 you'll get a good idea of where I'm coming from.
Sir please buy my NO-Cash Notekens
