Looks like there is a bridge to nostr (see below) and I've heard about someone doing a BTC transaction over LoRa (not sure if it was meshtastic), but I haven't seen the code. It should be reasonably s...

No, but I'm going to stash this one away in my notes in case I want to dig deeper. Thanks for sharing!

Not asking for myself. But how could Satoshi himself have gotten any open source development support? Or an anonymous team doing for example, coinjoin/mixing, etc? We need an ecosystem that can suppor...

n3xB | Global Bitcoin Exchange Protocol on Nostr · 85w

Thanks. I didn’t see this particular one, but I know of Mostro and RoboSats. I also know of a few efforts to try to standardize order formats on top of Nostr. I guess n3xB is one of them. Main difference I see is n3xB wants to establish a neutral protocol that uses nostr as the primary database. ...

What's the business model though? I'm not convinced there's a sustainable model for FOSS.

I think the better approach might be to let everyone get rich trading in the ecosystem and build the systems you want without needing to turn a profit off the code. Solves the conflict of interest and makes the market more positive sum.
