Nostr is the Orange Web: Bitcoin’s Niche and Futuristic Alternative Internet

Here's a deep dive into the top tools, sites and best practices I discovered, wrapping my head around the Bitcoin's Nostr ecosystem.

Okay, I have been going on a massive zapping spree. Maybe half of my zaps went through. The other half failed because people have not set up their receiving wallet correctly, I suppose.

The good news is, Electrum works as a NWC server running on my local machine!

Is there any self custodial wallet that supports NWC for nostr?

I know Zeus technically counts but honestly having a really hard time making heads of tails of the Zeus interface.

Breez supports NWC?

Working on an article for Bitcoin Magazine intended to be a deep dive introduction into Nostr.

What are the most important NIPs to explain?

The coolest apps to show off?

The most popular use cases of the Nostr protocol?

The most obvious ways in which it helps Bitcoin grow?

Anyone want to buy this original Asanoha?

It comes in this beautiful wooden frame and it is # 6/210 (totally not on NFT).

The Japanese words on the top of the pill mean something along the lines of philosopher and wise, perhaps philosopher King.

This symbol at the bottom is infinity divided by 21 million.

Contained in a golden pill a well-known Bitcoin meme.

Taking offers.

Bitcoin Privacy in 2026: A Practical Guide

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/guides/bitcoin-privacy-in-2026-a-practical-guide

I'm a total nostr normie.

What are your favorite clients for it?

other perspectives into this network that are smooth and help sort through replies and content well?

You know what I hate about twitter? and social media in general but maybe there's a format that fixes it.

Any remotely contentious debate has a high chance of devolving into an ego-fueled, chest-pumping game of who is the biggest asshole.

Would love to see a no-nonsense UI that was focused on concise but thoughtful discussion.

Some rethinking of reddit perhaps. But not reddit lol. That's also full brain rot.

I genuinely have no idea what to do here.

Pro tips?

Can someone tell me how to change this "[email protected]". on my account?

And what platform or w,e I should update it with?

Why has no body built a coinjoin system ontop of the liquid network?

Balances are encrypted there. It is one of the oldest Bitcoin 'side chains'.

Seems like low hanging fruit.

Hi everyone. Gonna give nostr another run, because Bitcoin twitter is fkn dead.

Trump Admin Silent as Tornado Cash Verdict Threatens Bitcoin Privacy

Where is the crypto czar?

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/takes/trump-admin-silent-tornado-cash-privacy via @bitcoinmagazine

Feels like a slow news out there today.

Anything catching your attention?

Alright. Looks like I had set this account up with Alby on primal, but can't make any sense of alby's zap back end side of things.

What's the easiest way to make zaps work?

Can I plug nostr it directly to zeus, blink or phoenix?

Alright. Given there's a new wave of a hostility incoming towards the open internet, I'm going to give Nostr another shot.

Finally figured out how to reset my relays and now it works much faster then before, so good!

Gonna start sharing my articles here going forward and keeping an eye out.

Starting with this one, where I shit post about Ethereum. Enjoy!

Hey everyone! I just want to give a shout out to

and

.

I've been part of their Top Builder program for a few weeks and have not just learned a ton but have become a lot more efficient of a builder than I've ever been.

It feels good. Just finished the demo site for a new project I've been working on for months now. You can check out the demo site at Bink.Club.

Also, there's a short video I made for Top Builder about the project status and vision. But figured some of you may want to watch it as well and share you thoughts.

Let me know if this project rings are bell for you, or if you'd try it out!

You know it would be cool? If you could put a bounty on posts, by adding that sets to it like a zap. And then people could earn those SATs by consuming the post watching it or whatever. Of course bots would take this immediately. But if you could wave a wand and solve the bot problem, then this would be the equivalent of a distributed ad network.

Some solutions to the problem include just requiring all accounts to have x amount of SATs locked up for why amount of time on the end pub or associated public address. The orange check mark idea. It's complicated quickly but the future would be cool.

Good work better for the dms. You could DM somebody with a SAT inside. They would have to read the DM to claim the set. It would bypass the ball problem because people would only send it to people that are real. It would be their own stats at stake after all.

ok. I need a new nostr client.

what is the next best thing for Android after primal?

Got zaps working again.

No idea where they were pointing.

Should not fail now!

Shout out to @TheBlueMatt for leading the creation and development of Bip 353, also known as DNS Payments.

I have set it up via @PhoenixWallet on my website, using bolt 12 and it is the best Bitcoin user experience for payments in it's history, imo.

You can try it with walles that support it which also include @ZeusLN, and send me a sat or two at [email protected].

-No invoice interaction -No invoice expiration clock ticking -No on chain address with confirmation wait times -No eyeball verificatoin of payment public keys -No doxing of balances by using highly private bolt 12.

Technologically secured, human readable bitcoin payments. Just brilliant. en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0353

where are some of you guys getting check marks from?

hello Bitcoin world

Snort not letting me like and re.....boost.
