More frequently asked questions about Mostro 🧌 ❓ Are my operations private? Yes. All communication is end-to-end encrypted. Mostro uses different keys for each operation, which prevents linking your trades to each other. There's an advanced privacy mode in which not even the node itself can know which operations belong to you. Node operators have no access to any personal information of the users. ❓ What makes Mostro different from other P2P exchanges? Three fundamental differences: 🛡️ Real censorship resistance: Mostro is a protocol, not a platform or a company. No central server to shut down, no app to take down, no database to confiscate. It runs on Nostr. 🔑 Privacy by design: no accounts, emails, or persistent identities. Each operation uses different keys and communication is end-to-end encrypted. ⚡ Minimal and non-permanent custody: Mostro doesn't hold funds. It uses Lightning hold invoices: sats remain locked in the seller's wallet until they confirm receipt of the fiat.

In most services, privacy is a setting you can turn on. In Mostro 🧌 it's the default mode. Every trade uses different keys. Communications travel encrypted through Nostr. The node doesn't know who you are, it only coordinates the trade. Privacy isn't a setting. It's the architecture.

"Trust us" is what every company says. Mostro 🧌 says something different: verify it yourself. The code is open. Anyone can read it, audit it, and propose changes. Nothing is hidden about how the protocol works. That's not a marketing differentiator. It's the only real way to guarantee that a system does what it says it does ⚡

Mostro 🧌 uses Nostr to communicate. What is that? Nostr is a decentralized messaging protocol. Nobody controls it. There's no central server that can censor it or shut it down. When you buy or sell on Mostro, messages between you and your counterpart travel encrypted through Nostr. Nobody can read them. Nobody can block them ⚡ That's why Mostro doesn't need a central database or a company behind it. The protocol exists as long as people use it.

Decentralization is not a technical idea. It's a response to something concrete: systems that fail, accounts that get frozen, countries left outside the global financial system. Mostro 🧌 doesn't exist to talk about decentralization. It exists because decentralization solves real problems for real people. Every node running the protocol is a piece of infrastructure that no company or government can shut down ⚡

The person who uses Mostro 🧌 isn't necessarily a developer or a Bitcoin expert. It's someone who at some point decided they'd rather understand how their money works than blindly trust whoever manages it. Someone who values knowing their sats are in their own wallet, that the protocol is auditable, and that no company can freeze their account. That attitude has a name: financial sovereignty. Mostro exists for the people who already made that decision ⚡
