I’m excited to announce the launch of $prism.

Nostr is many things, but most importantly, I believe that Nostr is Bitcoin’s first layer three technology. Bitcoin solves money, Lightning solves payments and Nostr solves identity and coordination. Similar to the Bitcoin and Lightning protocols, the Nostr protocol is permissionless and decentralized.

Nostr solves identity using a simple public key that works across any client. Nostr solves coordination by directly connecting Lightning wallets without intermediaries via Nostr wallet connect (“NWC”) and Lightning address (or ideally a future Nostr native equivalent).

There will be many incredible bitcoin experiences built with Nostr. We are making prisms.

Lightning prisms without Nostr are hard to coordinate and execute. It requires figuring out each address, a way to coordinate payout amounts, and someone taking custody of the bitcoin for a period of time to manage payouts. So we’ve seen almost no one making prisms.

Now with Nostr, they are incredibly easy. Want to create a prism on Nostr right now? Type $boost into the text of your next post on any client and we’ll make a prism with the first 10 people that repost it. We’ll post the prism on nostr:npub12u7xgzak939jlap3fnev05eky6d4ntwr4lrs03kgnnfd9njmtvrsr9jjmt and you can zap it with any client that supports zap splits like Snort.social or Amethyst. Want to limit your prism to a smaller group of people? Create a listr on listr.lol like #friends and type $boost #friends. We’ll only create a prism with users that boost your post and are on your #friends list.

With NWC, payments all complete wallet to wallet, no intermediary necessary and we never touch your bitcoin. The possibilities are now endless for building new consumer experiences on top of Lightning and Bitcoin.

We started $prism to push forward the bitcoin experience on Nostr. We’ll be launching more prism products over the coming days. Follow nostr:npub1arcweuxy0zkdcg08sljh058qp02ytrgnpzh4csa3ar42szyfgrpsw6ggtw or go to https://makeprisms.com to learn more.

A special thanks to nostr:npub1ce7d8cdg8k49dnl3da34mvhah8kevxfsq2vdguq6trngapqfsdzsnv3d7m who has been an early thought partner and the first contributor to $prism and nostr:npub1s9etjgzjglwlaxdhsveq0qksxyh6xpdpn8ajh69ruetrug957r3qpklxzl who is our newest contributor.

This is badass! The $prism will be a foundational building block of the Nostr economy. Can't wait for all Value4Value apps to integrate!

Hahaha so bullshit indeed 😂 thanks for listening!

Always a blast to talk about nostr with nostr:npub1kuy0wwf0tzzqvgfv8zpw0vaupkds3430jhapwrgfjyn7ecnhpe0qj9kdj8! Happy to be back :)

Hey nostr:npub18lzls4f6h46n43revlzvg6x06z8geww7uudhncfdttdtypduqnfsagugm3 your vision of Nostr + Bitcoin + AI is taking shape. Any feedback will be helpful. nostr:note1f4xswwmx3m359rqesad9nt82urvrtqp0u96uner4krccefeknxuqqcp0n3

Badass!! And super simple to use. It looks like this is all free for now? I assume you guys are paying the dvm cost during this initial phase?

Super cool guys! Excited to play with it. I believe this is the first dvm integration I’ve seen geared toward mainstream users. Are there others??

Coming soon!!

I remember reading a suggestion from nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a a few years ago re taking magnesium supplements for increased energy levels. I’ve been experimenting with taking 200-400mg before bed and omg do I feel refreshed when I wake up! 400 seems ideal for me so far. Does anyone else have experience with taking magnesium? Is there any good research explaining why I feel so much better? Are there any potential downsides?

ICYMI the piece I wrote about Nostr in January was on the front page of Hacker News yesterday. It was great to see so much interest from a new community!

That piece is already pretty dated though, so I posted a small addendum in the thread covering new nostr frontiers beyond social media such as:

nostr:npub18lzls4f6h46n43revlzvg6x06z8geww7uudhncfdttdtypduqnfsagugm3 wrote an article today thats on HN… https://hivemind.vc/nostr/

Solid read, thanks Max.

Nice little article - curious though… isnt using nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm a security risk? A third party app hosting keys ?

Also - nostr:npub18lzls4f6h46n43revlzvg6x06z8geww7uudhncfdttdtypduqnfsagugm3 next time you should start the article w the fact youre invested in every co you mention. Cheeky move to put it at the last line…

Thanks! 🙏

That article is already out of date though so just shared an addendum on HN.

To the best of my understanding, nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm is quite safe. You’re storing the keys locally in your browser extension, not on their server. While this is still not as safe as using the secure element on your phone, I don’t believe anyone I know has had any issues. nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm is also open source with lots of eyeballs on it, which is good for security. What’s more, they now offer child key permissions to restrict what can be signed I believe. Perhaps nostr:npub1xv8mzscll8vvy5rsdw7dcqtd2j268a6yupr6gzqh86f2ulhy9kkqmclk3x can share more details

Always a blast to purple pill a new audience! We also went pretty deep on the future of edge AI + Lightning and Nostr.
