Huge milestone: First demo of Nostr Web Services (NWS) bringing TCP to Nostr. With NWS, you can host any existing web application on Nostr without having to use DNS or even announce your public IP to the world, simply by sharing your service's npub (or nprofile). Try it out the demo yourself. Here is a Cashu test mint running with NWS. Let's use curl to retrieve the mint's information. The request travels from your computer to the public NWS entry relay, then through nostr to the service's NWS exit relay. At the other end is a Cashu mint with HTTPS encryption. ``` curl -s -x socks5h://relay.8333.space:8882 https://nprofile1qqs8a8nk09fhrxylcd42haz8ev4cprhnk5egntvs0whafvaaxpk8plgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuwpnxvejuumsv93k2g6k9kr/v1/info --insecure | jq ``` image I can't stress this enough: THE MINT RUNS BEHIND HTTPS! The NWS entry relay can't read your traffic. It's encrypted. We can host public entry relays that can be used by anyone. This means we can plug the entire internet to it 🌐. Let's plug it into Cashu for now. Nutshell wallet supports socks5 proxies (that's how it uses Tor). By setting the public entry relay as the proxy, the wallet can now connect to a mint's npub/nprofile and communicate with it via NWS. image This is going to be so freaking cool. And it's going to be a lot more useful than just for Cashu. There are still bugs and issues that need to be ironed out but the code is coming out soon. Watch this space.

P2P hashed documents (doctors, layers, journalists etc.) Communications for entities like companies, schools, governments that can grant access for specific keys to access different parts of their data. Event bookings and direct ticket sales !!! And all similar organizational tools including any P2P commerce, vendor reputation with web of trust !
I like how nostr will give non social media platforms, social media powers. But. Unified Balance across all nostr apps and websites Webs of trust with scores that have real implications P2P Marketplaces for goods and services from humans and LLM's. VPN competitors, allowing you to surf the internet through nostr relays. A communications protocol for AI to exchange value and data more freely in order to perform higher level tasks.
Not sure these count as non-social GitHubstr StackOverflowstr Kickstartstr I'm working on bridging git with nostr https://swarmstr.com/ has the stackoverflow look and feel on the way, kinda has the Kickstarter thing working and some other projects are trying to create a GitHub like experience So I'm super pumped to see what will be available in the next years
this is what I'm working on: it's a remote helper to create a #nostr aware git protocol. as is it already works with nostr native remote urls for remote repos hosted on GitHub, gitea, git lab, bitbucket or anywhere where you already have credentials to clone/pull/push. check readme for more info. what I want to achieve is connect with #nostr native git service providers (GitHubstr) without the need to register an ssh key for each, using your nostr identity as credentials for git native commands
But I’m biased… I’m the founder There’s other quality stores pushing classifieds nip-99 πŸ’ͺ🧑 but we’re going the full nip-15 with auctions πŸ‘Œ It’s also a lot more than just ecommerce… ecommerce is just the first feature from the plebeian app
