mostro.world reads the public Nostr events every Mostro 🧌 node already emits and turns them into real numbers: completed orders, volume, active currencies, open disputes. bestiario computes and signs those reports, and your browser verifies that signature, that's proof of who published the numbers, not proof they're correct. For that, run the open-source software yourself and reproduce the results. More info at:

Every trade you make on Mostro 🧌 stays between you and the person on the other side. No company logging your habits to sell to advertisers, no algorithm deciding what you're allowed to buy or sell. Encryption isn't an add-on here, it's just how the protocol works by default. That's what it looks like when privacy is the standard, not a premium plan. ⚡

#Bitcoin #Nostr #Privacy #P2P

You don't sign up for Mostro 🧌, your identity generates itself. The first time you open a client, it creates a set of Nostr keys for you: a public npub and a private nsec, no email or phone number attached to either one. That nsec works as your login, permanently. Back up the 12-word recovery phrase, and that identity stays yours no matter what device you use next. 📚

Quick Start 🚀 - Mostro-FAQ

#Bitcoin #Nostr #P2P #Mostro

Recovering your Mostro 🧌 account comes down to 12 words. If you ever change devices or lose your phone, restoring your recovery phrase gets you right back in, your keys, your history, any trade in progress. Back it up before your first trade, and you're covered no matter what happens to your device. 🎥 Watch how it works: #Bitcoin #SelfCustody #Nostr #Mostro

🧌 Mostro Node v0.18.7 is out! 🛡️ New payout safety rails: in-flight payouts are now capped per destination and node-wide, so one destination can't tie up the whole node's liquidity. ⏱️ Payout routes now bound their total timelock, not just the last hop, and user payout invoices are capped at 144 blocks instead of 432 — funds stay locked for less time. 🛠️ Operators can cancel pre-trade orders through the CancelOrder gRPC, with a new pretrade_only flag so a cancel never falls through into a dispute cancel by mistake. 🔧 Maintenance mode follow-ups: drain counters now count only in-flight payments, so draining a node actually finishes instead of waiting on already-settled orders. 🐛 Also fixed: admin cancel no longer trips on hold invoices LND already canceled, and the info event now advertises the correct hold window. 📥 GitHub:

⚠️Update⚠️ We’re close to completing the node migration. Why has it taken so long? Because we need everyone with open orders to either complete or cancel them. Only once this happens can we switch over to the new Lightning node. If you currently have an open order on Mostro, please complete or cancel it so we can resume normal operations as soon as possible. That said, you can continue trading on Mostro, as there are currently 7 other community nodes operating at full capacity. This is yet another demonstration of Mostro’s resilience. Our motto is: From a single point of failure to multiple points of success.

🚨 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
