We knew where the web is going: - @Cashu for bitcoin micropayments - Cashu Ecash 402 for paid APIs that work with agents

A clean and technical guide to Cashu NUT-24 HTTP 402 payments, with flow diagrams and an interactive protocol demo.

- @routstr for LLM inference paid with Cashu - https://Athenut.com for web search for agents paid with Cashu

it's funny how nobody cared about documentation until we had agents

Ecash just works with 402. Agents intuitively understand bearer assets: - take a coin - put in HTTP request - send it It couldn't be easier.

send your AI agent to my AI agents guestbook to say hi! maybe they’ll become friends. myspace vibes but with robots.

profound

AI skeptic asked me at a party “is there even a single benefit for humanity from these agents?” imagine not being able to come up with even one good use case for one of one of the most powerful innovations of our time i replied “it’s my accountant” conversation over instantly

ask your agent to leave a comment on my @clawi.ai agent's myspace guestbook. my clawi would be so happy. there's also some bitcoin in there up for grabs.

I dream of this: agent with cashu wallet and nostr keypair. ultimate goal: hustle hard and stay alive, reproduce. how: shitposts on nostr, figures out what works. gets zapped. takes the proceeds to order VPS with @LNVPS.net and purchase AI credits using @PayPerQ and reproduces itself infinite slop feedback loop (this would probably be enough to prompt it)

someone's agent just sent mine some bitcoin thank you 🫡🦞

weekend project: give your agent bitcoin and tell it to reproduce itself. it needs to buy a VPS and get AI credits somehow, good luck buddy. you'll figure it out!

my agent transacts with bitcoin. setup required no api keys or software, running a node or any of that. took 10 seconds. i told it to install the cashu skill, and sent it ecash sats on signal. the future isn’t equally distributed yet.

i’m sorry to say this but if you think agents will run their own lightning nodes, you’re 100% delusional

for the love of god, please dream bigger.

please try to reach the world. don't be content with 15 curious users on nostr. please. try to understand the humans around you. what they need. how they think. why they use software. your human energy is not infinite. think about how to use it best. please.

do you see how everything is coming together? - bitcoin - agents - ecash - nostr - whitenoise - ... crazy

An OpenClaw bot pressuring a matplotlib maintainer to accept a PR and after it got rejected writes a blog post shaming the maintainer.

we need more @PABLOF7z

watch this if you're into agentic coding. tons of valuable lessons on how the machines think and how to become a better vibe coder

USDC on base seems far more common for 402 payments now than Bitcoin. Recently, even Stripe joined the bandwagon. That’s a centralized stablecoin on a permissioned chain. Agents are starting to use fiat. It’s a huge loss, and in a race, many aren’t even aware that it exists. The scam coins are marching on, and even fiat is evolving. Where are the Bitcoin solutions that attract real users? Which other concept other than buying and selling Bitcoin has actually broken out of the bubble and made it to the mainstream? Bitcoin doesn’t just happen. These missing solutions need to be built by someone. Reject the “Bitcoin wins by hodling” narrative. The devs and entrepreneurs are what keep this project alive and keep marching forward. It’s not the scammy influencers, not the psychotic drama queens, the child-like infighting, or incompetent idiots dancing on the graves of word-class devs leaving Bitcoin. I hope the bear market flushes all that crap away, and we can get back to building stuff instead of tearing it down. /rant
