Last Notes npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Hashden, the non-custodial marketplace of Bitcoin solo-mining dens Open alpha update. What works today: - Multi-tenant stratum + multi-output coinbase (PPLNS / solo / operator fee / dust). 200 fuzz cases, validated on a real Bitaxe. - Block reward → coinbase pays every member on-chain → Lightning fan-out for sub-dust → a NIP-57 zap receipt per payout. No platform balance, ever. Operators can't quietly skim. - Anonymous by default: no IP logs, npubs hidden unless you opt in per den, payout addresses redacted until a block actually lands. - Don't trust us, verify: a coinbase-verifier CLI you run on your own hardware confirms every job pays YOU before you hash. Every image is cosign-signed + SLSA-attested, prove hashden.app runs the public repo at /verify. Your Nostr key is your identity. No email, no KYC. GPL-3.0, all of it. Find a den, point your Bitaxe, chase blocks together → https://hashden.app npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Hashden’s been rock solid so far. The node is really the only thing that could give you trouble, but you can always plug in your own via RPC. https://blossom.primal.net/f1e708840290d0b9c1384b070f453bd947b10753b315991762b1ead920c6bd13.jpg npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Nostreon is non-custodial. When someone subscribes to a creator, the payment goes straight from the subscriber's wallet to the creator's wallet. We never touch it. No escrow. No payout delays. No platform wallet sitting on weeks of creator revenue waiting to be paid out. Below $1,000 of monthly revenue, creators keep 100%. Above that, the platform fee is 5%, settled at the moment of the transaction. The only thing between a creator and their income is their own wallet. npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Wrote up a concrete walkthrough of what NIP-42 auth looks like against our gated relay. Copy-pasteable code for anyone building or extending a Nostr client to support cross-client subscription reading. #naddr1qv…2r8c Anyone with a NIP-42-aware client and a valid Nostreon subscription can read premium content from any other Nostr client. No Nostreon SDK. #nip42 #nip63 #nostrdev npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Relay is fully open to any NIP-42 client direct. Primary path, already working in Damus, Yakihonne, Coracle today. (Haven't tested Amethyst, no Android handy, would love Vitor's take if he gets a chance.) The partner credential is for cache-service clients where the app talks to a backend rather than to relays. I tested Primal signed in as a paid subscriber with the gated relay added to my client and still couldn't read the article, which is what got me looking at their architecture. From primal-web-app/src/sockets.tsx the web app opens one websocket to a cacheServer URL and speaks a Primal-specific protocol, no direct-relay reads in that file. Might be wrong about the rest of their stack, but if that shape holds the cache itself is what needs a NIP-42 identity. For client architectures without that intermediate layer, there's nothing to integrate. Just connect. https://github.com/PrimalHQ/primal-web-app/blob/main/src/sockets.tsx npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Shipped the first production NIP-42 + NIP-63 gated relay for subscription-gated content on Nostr. Validated cross-client in Damus, Yakihonne, and Coracle. Subscribers can read premium content from any NIP-42-aware Nostr client that speaks the spec. Dedicated indexer-partner integration path: Phase 1 is a service-account NIP-42 credential that lets a partner's indexer pull premium events, gated at the client UI layer by NIP-63 kind 1163 memberships. ~10 lines on the partner side. DM'd @nprofile…2zdt today to propose Primal as the first integration. Would love ecosystem eyes on the NIP-11 access_control proposal while it's in review: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/2318 Live reference: curl -H "Accept: application/nostr+json" https://premium.nostreon.com/ cc @nprofile…2zdt @nprofile…n5fw @nprofile…x58v @nprofile…cr3y npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings I’ve been using Nostr for a while now, and the one thing that kept bugging me was this: creators here have the best audience on the internet. People who actually care about sovereignty, who run their own nodes and relays, who show up because they believe in this. And there’s no real way to support them beyond zaps. Zaps are great for tips. They’re terrible for recurring income and building a dedicated audience. So I’ve been working on something. It’s called Nostreon. Paid subscriptions for Nostr, built on Lightning, with subscription state living on-protocol as NIP-63 and NIP-88 events. Creators set up tiers, publish free and premium content, and get paid the moment someone subscribes. But the part I’m most excited about is the infrastructure side. I built a public API so that Primal, Damus, Amethyst, any client, can offer subscriptions natively inside their app. The client earns a revenue share. The creator gets paid instantly. The subscriber never has to leave the app they already use. I didn’t want to build another Patreon. I wanted to build the Stripe that makes subscriptions work everywhere on Nostr. Not launched yet. Still heads down. Here’s what’s already working: • Multiple subscription tiers with Lightning payments and instant settlement • Support for posts, long-form articles, video, audio, photo galleries, and live streams • Gated content relay so only paying subscribers can access premium stuff • Public API for any Nostr client to offer subscriptions natively with revenue share • Hosted checkout (like Stripe Checkout) so clients don’t have to build payment UI • Subscription state on-protocol via NIP-63/NIP-88, readable by any client • Creator dashboard with earnings, subscriber analytics, and tier management What I want to know is: what else would you need? Creators, what would make you actually move your paid content here? Client devs, what’s missing from that API list that would make integration a no-brainer? npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings @npub13ek…hjml this shit is crazy! #nevent1q…4tkg npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings Uptober here we go! https://image.nostr.build/f400483881f3fa288fb9e2a4dff04965a619175df241e2345efb012a6cdb22b3.jpg npub19tzp8lf3klmqj3dz9mz0qnuvjp7uyy9993gmljmyaxs8phztj7wsnujvq5 icaruswings With everything that has happened recently, here is what I have to say: Fuck Antifa, fuck fascism, fuck communism, fuck nazis, fuck MAGA, fuck woke, fuck racism, fuck a million genders, fuck homophobia, fuck the right, fuck the left and fuck the media!
