Looking for: 5 closed beta testers for Colabonate ๐งชโก
I've been building Colabonate for months โ a Bitcoin-native platform for Buy ยท Sell ยท Cooperate that ties together Lightning escrow, Nostr identity, and DAO governance. The full V1 feature surface is done (239 ADRs). Now it's time to break things.
What I'm looking for: 5 honest testers who'll click through the first end-to-end flow with real Lightning mechanics (HTLCs, hold invoices, settle/cancel) โ no paper exercises, no spec reviews. Just clicking, paying, disputing, and telling me what's wrong.
What you get:
Login via Nostr (NIP-07 / NIP-46) or email magic link โ no wallet required
50,000 demo sats in an internal wallet (Bitcoin regtest โ no real value, but real protocol paths)
Full escrow flow: create offer โ buy ticket โ 3-phase escrow (25 / 50 / 25 %) โ open a dispute if needed
Direct line to the founder (me) + a feedback widget on every page
What I want from you (15โ30 min of your life):
Complete at least one buy or sell flow
One feedback entry per bug found or "this feels off" observation
Be honest, not polite
Things to know:
The sats are worthless โ if something breaks, it's not your money, it's my bug ๐
Lost-key FAQ is built in: email login = burner key in your browser, Nostr login = your real identity. We will never ask for your nsec.
Persistent data is deleted on request once you've filed your last feedback entry.
Interested? Reply here, DM me, or email hello@colabonate.com โ I'll send the invite link plus a 5-min onboarding.
Ready when you are. ๐ง
