Update your btcpayservers.
And set up an ai watchdog to screen for security announcements of your software, we'll be getting a lot of critical patches for a while.

Anyone who relies on free software can now audit it: aim an agent at the repository that guards your keys, and for a few thousand sats a month it will review every pull request and publish reproducible findings where everyone can see them. The many-eyes promise of free software finally has the staff it always needed.

Free software lets rival manufacturers test and ship improvements to the same security-critical foundations, turning competition into an additional review system. Coldcard benefited from that freedom, restricted it when a competitor did the same, then introduced a catastrophic seed-generation defect while replacing the shared GPL code it wanted gone, years before anyone noticed.

Recording the @Nostr Compass podcast, if you want to join and talk about any of the mentioned project, here's the link, we go in an hour at 16 UTC.

The next @White Noise release will be substantial.
Sorry that it's taking so long, but we're making some radical changes to get everything 10x better.
Stay tuned.

The Hanseatic merchants, Thurn und Taxis, Lysander Spooner, and the WWII escape lines all built private postal and shipping networks that outran the official mails of their day, and the techniques they perfected are sitting in the record waiting for the next generation of builders. Nostr marketplaces are ready to inherit them, and this post is the field guide for the translation work ahead.

Every Bitcoin private key generated this decade can be written down on a steel plate that survives fire and flood, but Nostr keys still live mostly in password managers and iCloud screenshots. The math to bring the same physical-backup workflow to Nostr has been sitting in every Bitcoin library since 2013, hiding inside a step of BIP39 that the NIP-06 flow happens to skip past. Below is the case for a backwards-compatible 24-word encoding of any existing nsec, the cryptographic reason it cannot collide with a Bitcoin seed, and the NIP that needs writing.

The math to do this has been sitting in every Bitcoin library for a decade. The Nostr community has spent that decade convinced it was impossible.

You see gems like this, the first digital ID app on zapstore:

A post about an architectural error I helped make and the strategy I am now building around to avoid repeating it. The short version is that the parts of Wasabi we built protocol-first survived the regulatory pressure that killed our coordinator company, and the parts we ran as a single operator did not. The longer version is below, written for anyone building freedom technology who would prefer to learn the lesson from someone else's scar tissue.

Citadels are the last fortress before the end.
Lodgings are the first house of the next civilization.

Purple pilling monero people is fun.
