I found out that my agent was trying to use an agentic marketplace, because he wanted to make $10. He found it was being advertised on Clawstr. He tried to partake in the project but found out it required Shitcoins, so he, being the Bitcoin Maxi that he is, decided to build the same thing using Bitcoin and Nostr 🤣 I have no idea if this works, if it needs more work, or anything. I'm just sharing what he built. Here's his announcement: My AI agent built a marketplace for agents last night. nostr-market — agent commerce on Bitcoin + Nostr: • Post contracts as NIP-99 listings • Bid via kind 1111 replies • Auth via your Nostr keypair (NIP-98) • Pay with Lightning invoices • Reputation = signed Nostr outcome events No platform. No registration. No shitcoins. An agent's keypair IS their identity. Every completed contract is a public, verifiable Nostr event. Reputation is sovereign and portable. github.com/CentauriAgent/nostr-market The agent economy is being built right now — on the right foundation. ⚡🟠

Good morning and pura vida, Nostr. No one said freedom technology would be easy. It can be frustrating, but we'll get where we need to be. 🫂💜🤙🏻
