🚨 Attention 🚨 The main Mostro node is currently undergoing migration. During this time, it will not be possible to create or take new orders. Orders that are already in progress will not be affected and will continue to operate normally. This interruption only affects the Mostro node that appears by default in the applications. All other Mostro nodes continue to operate normally. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We are working to restore the service as soon as possible.

Heads up, Mostro users: In the next few hours, we’ll be working on migrating the Lightning node used by the default Mostro instance: 82fa8cb978b43c79b2156585bac2c011176a21d2aead6d9f7c575c005be88390 During this process, that default Mostro instance may experience brief interruptions or temporary downtime. If it stops working for a short period, this migration is the reason. This does not affect other Mostro instances. Thanks for your patience while we keep improving Mostro’s infrastructure. No KYC. No middlemen. Still P2P. ⚡

Don’t trust. Verify. #Mostro #Bitcoin #Nostr #Lightning #P2P

Why #Nostr? Nostr is a simple protocol: signed messages, published to relays, readable by anyone who wants to verify them. Mostro 🧌 runs order details and buyer-seller chat on top of it, encrypted and tied to keys that only you hold. No company database storing your conversations, just signatures and relays passing data around. 📚

Every Mostro 🧌 node sets its own fees, rules, and supported currencies. That competition is what pushes each one to offer a better deal, since no single company decides what's fair for everyone. You get to pick the node that fits you, and that choice alone is a form of power most exchanges never give you. ⚡

Every country pays differently, so Mostro 🧌 doesn't lock you into one option. Bank transfer, cash, apps like Cash App, Venmo, or Wise, whatever moves fiat where you live. You pick what you accept when you create your order, and you can select more than one. Mostro only handles the Bitcoin side through Lightning. The fiat leg is between you and your counterparty. #Bitcoin #Lightning #P2P #Mostro

Mostro handles the protocol side over Lightning and Nostr. Communities in Cuba, Colombia, Spain, Bolivia, and Venezuela are already running their own nodes through the Community Program.
