“Nutzaps” KILL ME NOW nostr:note1nvtwy2ydlg86cqx56vwfe69hxtnha4xk9a3gsw5ps0qql9eem68s8laxpj
In order for this to work, Nostr apps need the ability for users to send payments to (and receive from) relays.
I’m surprised no one has made this possible yet. AFAIK all money to and from relays is handled outside of clients today. nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 nostr:npub1pu3vqm4vzqpxsnhuc684dp2qaq6z69sf65yte4p39spcucv5lzmqswtfch

This would also compete with substack if we could just pay relays from within our app to get read access to them.
And news (substacks?) could advertise and post free things on other more popular relays
I fully expect that I’ll have to burn this account. I’ve copy+pasted it in to too many clients at this point.
The real mistake is in making people think that nostr is currently “secure”. It’s still very beta and best practices are not yet in place. So don’t bet the farm on it!

Zombie economy
Legacy media still exists today. So it would be hard to compete with the likes of AP or Reuters.
But where this could really take off is more in the example of citizen journalism. Either hyper local news or something more like old school Vice where they cover edgier topics that mainstream won’t touch.
Imagine these correspondents / contributors in Charleroi, Hurricane zones, etc.
Anyway, the concept is quite flexible
📰🗣️ News Relays
Journalism can be remade from the ground up with Nostr.
Imagine a relay that only allows *writes* from their whitelist of correspondents.
You pay to get whitelisted to *read* from the relay.
Your subscription to read from the relay would be distributed to all of the contributor pubkeys on the relay.
These News Relays could exist for cities, countries, or even global.
A change would have to be made to clients though where we should be able to select which relays we specifically want to read from. Like “show me the Baltimore News relay feed”.
Check out nostr:npub1arkn0xxxll4llgy9qxkrncn3vc4l69s0dz8ef3zadykcwe7ax3dqrrh43w ‘s cyberspace protocol Onosendai. It’s only possible with web sockets on nostr
> My hope for the group features (including calendars) is that relay-based and MLS-based groups would be good enough to replace what currently exist.
People are resourceful. Give them a basic group chat and they will run nation states on it. No need for the myriad of special note kinds.

Exactly! Save the code for the other portions. They can be separate apps later on. Since many people use secure login systems, spreading your private key around isn’t as much of an issue anymore
It reminds me of YouTube poops. The kids are alright 🥲
Does anyone know what happened to the Satslink device that was coming out that would have allowed for a portable / handheld NSECBunker?
Can I call you just to spitball ideas on this around the design? Or do you have a preferred way to DM these days?
Don’t be afraid to be more opinionated. Bluesky is good because it’s opinionated and clear. Doesn’t overload the user with everything and the kitchen sink
What happened to custom feeds on Nostr? nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg anyone know?
nostr:note1mn0vel5grkqe4w9wjqmy6mf0zgrk0wdzuwrznhz9r7da2j74szxseypd9q
The custom feeds are the best part. For a period of time, I thought Nostr DVMs could compete, but it seems that people have kinda moved on from that idea idk
Just set up my BitKey!
Super cool and easy to use.
Well done 👏nostr:npub1ds3hmzemzgp9rsuvyvxqdk0y3uxnq9m903dktjxrvyfwk9w99t4sc2hzcn nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m
Would love to have a signing device like this for #nostr one day… 
A nostr hardware signer would be one step closer to nostr terminals. Need that nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m

Thinking about this again.
There are other easier ways to do physical sign up as well. Like if you want to sign up churches, have everyone download an app, make an account, scan a QR code physically that whitelists their account, done. nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn
nostr:note18klmq4u3tguytz36cv0ks2lcrwzgpcffmtmtp7qmhyat0kka06fqfeah39
Yes, you could just email everyone in your church directory a link and such, but the physical QR code sign up process feels real.
It cements for people that this is about enhancing real life interactions, not replacing it
