Nostr Compass #9

Nostr Compass #9

Published 3 months ago
Description
Mostro reaches public beta after three years of development, bringing peer-to-peer Bitcoin trading to mobile via Nostr. Lightning handles settlement while Nostr coordinates orders with no custodial intermediary. The app is available on Zapstore and GitHub. Zapstore hits 1.0 stable, marking a milestone for Nostr's permissionless Android app distribution. The release includes better error handling, a new updates screen, and encrypted issue reporting via Nostr DMs. OpenSats awards its sixteenth wave of Bitcoin grants. Minibits Wallet received a renewal for its Nostr-integrated Cashu wallet with NIP-60 support and nutzap integration. Primal Android ships 18 PRs expanding NWC infrastructure with dual wallet support, audit logging, and the lookup_invoice method. This continues their wallet connectivity buildout from previous weeks. Antiprimal launches as a standards-compliant gateway bridging Primal's proprietary cache to standard Nostr NIPs. The project enables any Nostr client to access Primal's event statistics, search, and Web of Trust calculations through standard protocol messages. Kind 0 slimming begins with vitorpamplona's series of PRs extracting underused data from user metadata events. Identity tags moved to kind 10011, with proposals pending for NIP-05 verification and Lightning addresses. NIP-45 gains HyperLogLog support, enabling approximate event counting across multiple relays. The 256-byte probabilistic data structure solves the deduplication problem for follower and reaction counts without requiring full event downloads. The deep dive covers NIP-96's deprecation in favor of Blossom. While Angor v0.2.5 adds NIP-96 server configuration, ZSP v0.3.1 uploads exclusively to Blossom, illustrating a protocol transition underway. Other releases include Coracle 0.6.29 with topics and highlight commenting, Igloo Desktop v1.0.3 with security hardening for threshold signing, Amber v4.1.2-pre1 migrating to Flow architecture, and NostrPress for converting Nostr profiles into static blogs. 00:05 Intro 00:20 Mostro Ships First Public Beta 01:11 OpenSats Sixteenth Wave of Bitcoin Grants 02:06 NostrPress: Nostr Profile to Static Blog 05:38 Antiprimal: Standards-Compliant Gateway to Primal’s Cache 09:02 Ikaros: AI Agent Messaging Gateway for Signal and Nostr 11:04 Kind 0 Slimming Campaign 15:02 NIP-70 Relay Support Critical for Encrypted Messaging Security 18:43 Releases 18:52 Coracle 0.6.29 19:15 Igloo Desktop v1.0.3 20:00 Amber v4.1.2-pre1 20:45 Mostro Mobile v1.1.0 and Daemon v0.16.1 22:20 Angor v0.2.5 34:16 Ridestr v0.2.2 and v0.2.3 44:03 Zapstore v1.0.0 51:48 ZSP v0.3.1 55:34 Nostr PHP 1.9.4 55:50 Damus iOS 1.17 56:12 nak v0.18.3 56:27 Mi: Browser-Based Local Relay 58:06 Agora v1.0.2 59:26 xonos v0.1.6 59:55 Project Updates 59:58 Primal Android Expands NWC Infrastructure 01:07:46 diVine Ships API-First Video Feeds 01:08:25 White Noise: Keyring Unification and User Search 01:09:35 Marmot TS Extracts Reference Chat App 01:11:44 Alby Hub Updates 01:11:56 Notedeck Ships Dashboard and Agentium 01:12:48 Agora Ships Major UI Overhaul 01:13:28 Clawstr Ships CLI and Lightning Zap Buttons 01:25:22 NIP Updates 01:25:27 Merged: NIP-45: HyperLogLog Relay Response - NIP-45 (Event Counting) 01:44:34 Merged: NIP-39: Identity Tags Moved from Kind 0 - NIP-39 01:45:40 Open PRs and Discussions 01:45:44 NIP-XX: Nostr Relay Connect (NRC) 01:46:39 Nostr Web Tokens (NWT) 01:53:50 NIP-47 Simplification 01:55:05 NIP-05: Move to Own Event Kind 01:55:21 NIP-57: Lightning Addresses from Kind 0 01:57:52 NIP Deep Dive: NIP-96 (HTTP File Storage) and the Transition to Blossom 02:13:22 Outro
