naddr1qv…02v7GM Plebs☕
BitFest was a great time, staging is bleeding bugs, and we’re finally flipping the NIP-99 switch.🥳
BitFest Recap
BitFest was an absolute lovefest. Nothing beats hanging out with a room full of psychopaths who actually believe we’re building the future on Nostr & Bitcoin.
From some serious “oh ya I emailed with Satoshi” OGs to Nostr PV god Derek Ross (nprofile…8m4j) to our own Plebeian royalty Yojimble (aka Jimble Jumble ) who set up the cutest farmer’s market stall in the art hall—jams, marmalades, chutney, tallow. Peak P2P from Yojimble (nprofile…pfha) 🤝
Chiefmonkey (nprofile…9hmv) got up and told our whole chaotic story:\ Pivot or perish—that’s been Plebeian Market for three straight years. First version → Auctions → Lightning login → WordPress plugin → Nostr → and now the FINAL 🤞 pivot to NIP-99.
Many of you have been riding shotgun since day one, cheering, breaking staging…or production :| and roasting us when we deserved it. We love you. Seriously. Thank you for sticking with the chaos. 🫂💜🧡
But as you can guess this will not be the final-final version of Plebeian Market… Auctions will be the next *yuge* feature we’ll add …soon-ish.
Why NIP-99 Makes Buyers & Sellers Happy
In short: faster shopping, fatter earnings, less junk.
Dev Update – Relaunch Is Days Away
The dev team is in full crunch mode. Messaging fixed. Shipping fixed. Ladybugs are crying lol. We flip the switch next week (unless major issues arise).
Next week I’ll drop a dead-simple how-to video. Plus a migration tool the devs built that moves your current NIP-15 listings to NIP-99 with a few clicks.
Shop owners: you’ll just have to hit “publish” again and tweak a couple fields like shipping options. Takes a few minutes, then your stall is future-proof forever.
This Week’s Feature Products
Bitcoin Trading Cards – Factory-Sealed Deck
tigs (nprofile…wxew) just dropped an unopened deck. These aren’t just cardboard—they’re Bitcoin culture in physical form. Series 1 & 2 are already collector cult classics: holographic foils, serialized parallels, Warriors vs. Villains lore, rare chase cards people hunt like Pokémon on steroids. 10k+ strong community trading, grading (PSA slabs exist), and flexing binders on Nostr. Rip it with the boys or seal it forever—your call. Crack or Hodl 🎴
Oak & Chain – Proof of Wood
New artisan nprofile1qy28wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnvxqc8qtn0wfnszxthwden5te0dehhxarj9ekx2cm5w4exjene9ehx2aqqyr3x3c8kdadzkk2aucjfhfe0hhmvl8jv6r7plw83jxywj7e29mkcw34j0cz (nprofile…j0cz) in the marketplace! Hand-built driftwood mirrors that look like they survived a shipwreck and came out richer and wooden-cover notebooks that smell like forest and freedom. Real proof-of-work (and proof-of-wood). If your walls or desk need sovereign swagger, this is it. Shop the Stall 🪵
VCA Vintage Gold Necklace w/ Giant Swarovski Crystal
Heavy gold + massive crystal drop. Quiet luxury that says “I bought this with Lightning, cope.” Bling in Sats 💎
Final Love Bomb
To everyone who’s been here through every pivot, every meltdown, every staging smash, thank you.💜🧡\ We’re so damn excited to finally ship this thing and watch plebs start slinging goods, art, jams, wood, and weird vintage bling for Bitcoin again. Plebeian is about to get loud. Got ideas or feedback? Hit us up on Nostr or Telegram!
Stay sovereign,\ Bekka & the Plebeian Team 💜
