Do any iPhone wizards know how to change the default handler for lightning links in Safari? Any time I click a tip button in a browser client, it only gives me the option to open blue wallet ☹️

It just occurred that every website and service on earth can integrate Lightning into your user profile by just asking for your npub or NIP-05 🤯

Seems weird to me that Damus does not support searching by NIP-05 identifier

Something I have been thinking on for a while: an uncensorable name system (or more generally a global key-value store) anchored on the Bitcoin blockchain. Not a new idea, but a few recent developments have given me some ideas. Envelopes (inscription innovation) have a lot of potential, also bootstrapping a new protocol for name propagation is difficult, but there is a certain new protocol with a lot of freedom that is bootstrapping a network effect as we speak, called nostr… It wouldn’t require a lot of on chain data, just a name, signature and merkle root on chain. Record records could be propagated on nostr. Each “name” published on chain would actually be a name space containing potentially infinite names. Anyone could operate a namespace, especially businesses. Every namespace is anchored by a merkle root on chain. When new names or modifications are made to the namespace, a new update is published on chain, containing a new merkle root which includes a link to the previous merkle tree, creating an unbreakable chain. If you have a name in a namespace, what prevents the namespace owner from rugging you? First, your name in the namespace must be signed by your private key. The signature is included in the merkle tree, so the namespace owner can never revoke or change your key without your permission. What if they attempt to prevent you from updating your name in the next update? You can publish a permanent redirect, directly on chain, to a new name in a different namespace.

I really want to reiterate that the United States ALLEGEDLY committed a direct act of war against one our allies, ALLEGEDLY lied to the entire world and said it was Russia, and now we are ALLEGEDLY under some kind of attack or alien invasion. This is truly some kind of insane clown world simulation.

Can you guys feel it? There’s something in the air. Just as the SEC comes crashing in to destroy crypto on one side, Ordinals release, causing the degens to flock to Bitcoin and teach them how to run Bitcoin full nodes and do coin control, offering a release valve. Just as social media starts collapsing under the weight of censorship and twitter begins to fall apart, nostr arises to provide a new protocol for social media, with Lightning at the forefront. Things are turning. The capital is loosening. Do you feel it yet?
