The Aegis relay is a nice developmental addition to the Nostr relay ecosystem. We haven't had a new paid relay platform launch in almost two years. Aegis will fill a nice gap for those that want to run paid relays on their own server, with their own domain, but also are not experienced developers or overly familiar with the command line. Plus, with the addition of file hosting support, this could be a nice package for onboarding new users.
And speaking of being sovereign, for those of us that run our own Lightning nodes, it would be nice to have a future version with LND support, LNbits support, etc.
Introducing: Aegis Relay
Incentiving Decentralization
Aegis Relay is a premium relay and blossom server in one that anyone can run to earn revenue for operating it.
By having significantly more blossom servers available, we will strengthen the network and ensure our file storage is more distributed.
Subscription payments are powered by the Bitvora lightning API, no code, no node management or KYC is required, you can be up and running in minutes.
Written in Go and powered by LMDB, it is the fastest subscription relay software in the ecosystem today and can run on just 1 core and 1 gig of ram.
To see it in action, you can subscribe to my relay here: https://aegis.utxo.one
To run your own relay and start earning, checkout the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/bitvora/aegis
Look forward to hearing your feedback! As is nostr tradition, this is early beta software so please report any bugs to me directly!
