2026 consists of 2 primes: 2 and 1013. Incredible to think that this prime combination of 2 and 1013 will never happen again. Carpe Annum!

This was my initial requirements analysis for #nostr #safebox

Awesome article by @Max ! What might not be apparent is that there are many of us who are studying ancient, classic and medieval protocols because they actually worked so well before the active intervention by the State. We are working hard to revitalize these olden ways using the latest cryptographic protocols of #Bitcoin, #Lightning, #Nostr and #Cashu. That is the whole point of #nostr #safebox - to bring back the old ways of doing things (between clans, communities and networks), without need of any far and distant authority. Your money. Your records. No state required. View quoted note →

Prolly nothin' but now I have all the pieces in place for a decentralized record-sharing/credential issuance and verification system which IMHO is hands down more secure and less capturable than anything out there. You'll see the four steps of verification (I call acceptance) 1. Cryptographic validation 2. Attestation by Issuer/Owner 3. Presentation Verification (credential is not hijacked by another user) 4. Trusted (Is the issuer part of a recognized authority list). All of the above is cryptographically verifiable and decentralized so organizations can get on with business of trust and verification without worry of being captured by a state or vendor. This is all built into #nostr #safebox using the #nostr protocol. More to come!! #WoTathon

My eventual goal for #nostr #safebox (once I have the core stabilized) is to communicate everything via NIP-59/44 using JSON RPC. I have this implemented for private payments and record-sharing but plan to make all app functionality only accessible via JSON RPC. View quoted note →
