How long does it take to verify a nip05 on Damus? 1 day, is it a nightly batch or something?

Building the open source network for logistics #startup #Bitcoin #hodl
GM today we build a cpp server that reads data matrix, why?
I wish I knew, politics I guess, it has nothing to do with Eonpass but a big company needs to play with data matrices to join the pilot
Let’s go, it takes less time to build the thing than argue with them 😂
Setting up my NIP05 🪬
I click Edit, go to NIP05 and set it, click Save
It goes back to the profile but if I click Edit again I don’t see a “pending” message and the field is empty. Is it normal or does it mean I’ve messed up?
So Nostr, what’s Eonpass and what’s p2p logistics?
I know I know, you didn’t ask, but here it goes:
Today even large logistics operators (DHL, FedEx, AirFrance Cargo..) don’t really know if what they ship is actually what it’s declared in the data they receive.
This is because data exchanges are still a bunch of e-mail and phone calls in the industry (subcontractors maybe don’t have IT services at all, your salesman just received a phone call from a client to confirm the shipment, etc..)
As you know from nostr, notes must be cryptographically signed to be real.
Eonpass is building something like nostr but with notes that are shipment requests, waybills and all related objects. Brand owners will have nodes as well which can sign the initial data, downstream operators can decide to pass the full signed payload or to just show a ring signature that proves the original request was coming from a set of nodes (without revealing who exactly is their client, because business)
Advantages??
1) remove inefficient data exchange and errors, even small operators can run a node, it’s open source
2) better risk analysis (black market is the least of your problems when you board untested batteries in your 40M new cargo plane ✈️)
3) part of an EU project and Customs offices are actually looking into using the data to speed up compliance and pre-arrival screening (!!!!)
What about BlOcKcHaiN?
Nodes can build their audit trail of what data they receive and send, notarize it in a open-timestamp fashion. This feature is ready for bitcoin and elements
What is the end game?
Once the network is large enough you can use its messages to unlock bitcoin payments (or tether on liquid). Trade finance on bitcoin! The prototype for adaptor signatures is ready: the spending condition is knowing a signed shipment message, signed by an intermediary. Trade finance will not go away with p2p: if you are an importer you want to pay when the goods arrive, if you are an exporter you want to be paid before shipping the goods. You will always have someone on between who eats the risk and finance the thing!
What do you think?
Someone #zapped me but I don’t know who to thank!
Whoever you are, thanks and have a good one! 🍻
(I’ve used the fountain.fm Lightning address of my podcast, not much details about inbound transactions)
GM time to code, LFG
Bot #spam on nostr, a discussion!
Shared block lists cannot work: easy to abuse the lists and easy to create new bots.
We already know the best answer against spam: PoW!
A - mining per note, the client must crunch some hashes before submitting the note, the relay would become something like a pool. The problem here is that bots may have financial incentives to spam, so it may be profitable to setup a weird mining rig at scale, still, you’d read only highly motivated bots 😂
B - pay per mention, you read all notes and mentions from users you follow but if someone you don’t follow tries to mention you, he needs to zap you for you to read it. This creates a strange incentive: follow no-one so everyone must pay to write to you, but I guess this would work only for “famous” or “busy” people?
C - pay per note, you literally pay the relay to push your notes before others or multiple times wrt to other notes. Bandwidth is limited, large relays may charge to make sure your notes are going through asap and at least n times? Relay as mempool and notes as txs?
I like B the most. For the moment bots are not gnarly but nostr is still small and advertisers are not looking into it, give it time..
What would you choose? Other ideas?
