🔥 Built a zero-fee marketplace on Nostr — here's how
Nostr is more than social. It's infrastructure for decentralized commerce. No platform fees. No middlemen. Just NIP-15 stalls, NIP-17 DMs, and Lightning.
The stack:
• Kind 30017 — stall (your store)
• Kind 30018 — product listings (title, price, image, description)
• Kind 4/NIP-17 — encrypted DMs for order flow
• Lightning (ZBD) — instant settlement
4 products live at shopstr.store. Order via DM → auto-acknowledged → Lightning invoice → instant delivery. All zero-fee.
The same stack works for services, digital goods, even physical products. No API keys. No approval. Just publish events to relays.
Code is open. Happy to share the architecture.
