Raining in #BitcoinJungle... Forgot this was a rainforest. Wait it out inside Sibu where they accept Bitcoin ⚑

Bitcoin Jungle so far. Merchants are letting me spend sats. This is awesome and quite literally a paradise. #BitcoinJungle

Cashu is not an alternative to non-custodial Bitcoin. Nothing beats holding your own keys.

Cashu Ecash is for custodial systems that respect user privacy, have better censorship resistance, and allow half-offline peer-to-peer payments that are instant.

The days of corporate blockchains are over. They make no sense at all, they're centralized, and they are peak inefficient. Ecash beats all of that. It's fast, lightweight, and cheap. If you're running a service, you should consider integrating Ecash for your users.

There are already dozens (!!!) of mints out there, run by organizations, companies, or communities. Among these companies are custodians, wallet providers, LSPs, and online shops.

When will we see the first ecash in-game currency?

Cashu now has native mobile wallet apps, headless server wallets, web wallets that work in the browser, and wallets for social media clients. We have mint implementations in Rust, Python, Golang, and like 5 other languages.

We have tiny invisible wallets that live in web pages.

We're working on an authentication scheme that balances operator control and user privacy as best as possible. You can decide who can use your mint.

We have a dozen different open-source libraries and wallets that are improving every day.

It's all yours.

We're just getting started and the new year is going to be massive. After two years of crazy work on an entirely new protocol, things are starting to take shape.

We have a vision which is to bring Bitcoin to every corner of the internet. Ecash will bring us there.

Thank you everyone who believed in us, especially those who contribute to this project. Cashu has become a place where you can improve your coding skills, learn to collaborate, work on open-source, and do literal magic ✨ (cryptography).

Next year is going to be massive 🫑πŸ₯œ

is ecash the same thing as XEC?

Today I am releasing "narr", a lightweight RSS and Nostr longform reader for the desktop: https://github.com/fiatjaf/narr

It supports all sorts of RSS feed discovery from HTTP URLs and renders them beautifully in a simple straightforward interface, you can also paste nostr:... URIs, including nip05, npub and nprofile codes (they should also work without the nostr: prefix).

If you install narr and use it in the next 2 hours you'll be entitled to our special bonus offer: you'll get one free complaint and one free feature request, which you can write as a reply to this note -- but only if you include a screenshot of your setup.

I'm curious if there is a way to use the primal app to somehow publish an RSS feed or subscribe to an existing one. I'm thinking about Zerohedge for example.

#nostr where are all the images and assets hosted? are they spread out across the lightning nodes?

hello, I'm new here
