Amazing Dispatch from @OpenSecret team highlighting #fedimint, #nostr and @Nostr Wallet Connect
NWC is the biggest bitcoin UX improvement since lightning:
- NWC lets you send bitcoin in ANY app without opening your wallet
- NWC lets you send payments in the future (i.e. subscriptions)

Potential app revenue opportunity?
With NIP87, any social app (i.e. @primal) knows that you recommended a mint. A marketplace like BitcoinMints.com wants better/updated ratings and would be willing to pay @primal to show a NIP87 “post” in the feed asking “How’s your recent experience with the FREEMadeiraOrg mint?” and a 5 star choice to only users that previously recommended a mint. Apps make money, marketplaces get better reviews.
Bad example (I’m just thinking about mints a lot), but an interesting concept I think 🤔
100+ users have recommended a #fedimint since
@OpenSecret launched its integration yesterday.
Want to add a more detailed review or change your recommendation? Just login to BitcoinMints.com.
Both are using #nostr so your identity and data are the same across apps.


What’s your best guess? #freethem


Another interesting aspect of BitcoinMints.com that highlights the network effect of #nostr is the ability to discover new users. Write an innovative or detailed review and you'll be sure to get new followers on the social nostr apps.
BitcoinMints.com now supports fedimint mints 🥳
The first public fedimint from FREEMadeiraOrg is now listed with reviews ✍️
Add your own reviews or list your fedimint mint ⭐️

The most obvious power of #nostr is the ability to connect your social graph across apps.
Connections on @primal and @Damus create a web of trust for any marketplace.

Bitcoin’s L3 is a messaging layer. It doesn’t need to be trustless, it needs to improve access and usability of bitcoin payments. We should spend more time focused on L3. Bitcoin lacks users.
