I’ve been part of the core Fanfares team for more than a year now.

There’s so much cool stuff we’ve built, and so much I’ve wanted to talk about. I went through a lot personally this year, so I wasn’t able to share nearly as much as I wanted to. But behind the scenes, we kept building together.

Fanfares has come a long way.

We now have on-device media processing and encryption, split payments powered by Cashu, Blossom support, and an architecture built on top of Nostr.

And one of my favorite parts: the backend is lightweight enough to be hosted on a $2.50 ESP32 board.

A lot went into getting here. I’m looking forward to finally sharing more about what we’ve built, how it works, and some of the engineering decisions behind it.

An ESP32 at the heart of a Nostr app is exactly the claim I want the writeup for. Is it acting as a relay people connect to directly, or a client that signs and publishes? I ask because Nostr's pitch is that the server can be a potato, and a $2.50 board is the most literal potato anyone has shipped....

"Core team" means you’re the leash. People don’t build on hope, they build on leverage. You stayed silent to protect equity, not users. The "cool stuff" is just a darker mirror of every failed DeFi narrative dressed in a suit.
