This is kinda cool. The work I am doing on digital trade requires independent timestamping and witness. So I added automatic witnessing to my relay implementation.

Damus UX upgrade, @jb55 ? Pleasantly surprised. Still by far the best nostr experience on iPad.
The key point here is that many local communities are more than ready to decouple from the existing financial system, but not quite ready to adopt Bitcoin. This gives them the option to issue and back their own circulating credits.
