Added DLC support for Musig2 on development branch.
Now you can tweak the group nonce with an adapter key, then later tweak the group signature with the secret.
https://github.com/cmdruid/musig2
This DLC scheme should also work with FROST.

Had the pleasure of being a "whale" this year at BTC24.
The wine and dine experience was nice, and there was a bunch of celebrities plus high net worth folks walking around.
We had a live feed of the main stage, so you could watch speakers from the comfort of the deep.
The room was packed when RFK was speaking on the main stage, with clapping and cheering at certain points in his speech.
When RFK made the point that Bitcoin is about more than just "number go up", the room was dead silent.
Just thought that was interesting.

Do you think nostr will survive the coming AI apocalypse?

I have been grinding out a stand-alone open source PSBT library for the web.
Holey moley what a load of work.
I used to wonder why a decent library doesn't already exist, despite the incredible demand for such a thing.
But BIP-173 has become the junk-drawer of protocols. There's so many strange key types and technical debt to navigate that it is insane.
I hope to abstract away the debt as much as possible, and give folks a simple API to use when passing PSBTs around.

I appreciate Elon reversing the globo-homo trend to censor everything on twitter.
But the content feeds are no longer the same. I don't feel in control of my own feed.
I think AI is dead-end for curating content. I *want* a dumb algorithm that I can wrap my head around. I don't want a black-box neural network that I can only make polite suggestions to.
Humans like game loops, you don't have to hide them. Just give us the controls and let us run the loops the way that we want.
Game companies know this. They give users what they want. Yet social media companies are taking these controls away?
Maybe because on social media, you are a product, not a user.
Nostr is in a great place where the users have control over their own loops. And developers are free to design new loops for us to try out and better control our content feeds.
Legacy social media is for the bots and the birds.

I agree with this on cash deposits but I don't understand how you would run a real credit system with anonymous transactions and accounts.
How would you measure credit risk? How are charge-backs supposed to work?
There are reasons that credit card holders would prefer transparency and buyer protection over privacy.

I'm not sure how you would derive an ECDH shared secret in a collaborative way, so encryption/decryption may be a challenge. It should be possible though.

Dealing with the xonly pub keys 🫠

2024-05-07 21:34:27

I went through an ordeal where I thought I lost my phone (but later found it).
I realized that there is no way to revoke my nsec from my phone if I lose it.
I am now convinced now that a multi-key setup with remote signer will be the future of self-custody. You cannot protect your identity without one.
But how do you coordinate key delegation around a single identity? Nostr tried key delegation and failed. Protocols like DIDs have not taken off.
Enter FROST.
FROST has a protocol for updating the shares of a secret, without changing the original secret.
If your nsec was a FROST key with multiple shares, you could use these shares for signing, and you could remove/replace compromised shares without changing your main identity.
You could even rotate keys regularly without changing your nsec. No need for delegation or resolving DIDs. This is the power of FROST.
Who wants to make a remote signer based on FROST?

2024-05-07 21:16:15

I have mastered FROST with taproot.

In a few days, I'll be making the case that the nostr relay network is a distributed consensus system for the delivery and receipt of cryptographic messages.
I believe this consensus system may be far more valuable than the social-media use case.
It solves a few important problems in cryptography protocols, and is far more efficient than publishing data to the blockchain.

Virgin Primal:
- android app won't load
- web app won't update my profile
- breaks when launched as PWA
Chad Coracle:
- sexy PWA experience, no need for an app.
- actually loads and updates my profile.
- respects PWA and hides browser interface

Oh man, coracle is amazing. See you later primal.

I may have found a use case for the abandoned "subject" field that nostr notes had with NIP-13.
It would be great if there was a standard "content id" with every note, so that you could reference notes by their content, rather than an absolute id.
The content id would be a sha256 hash of the content field and pubkey.
What this would enable is replaceable tags for notes. Imagine you could in-place update the tags on a note, similar to a replaceable event.
This would open up so many possibilities:
- Easily delete a note by adding a delete tag.
- Easily update a note by adding a ref tag to the new note.
- Update a note's metadata based on the comments. This may be good for special protocols (like zap giveaways).
This could also help relays with storage, as they could choose to discard notes with older metadata.
I would mainly want this for a simpler way to delete messages, as the current NIP-09 solution is a terrible burden on clients and not well respected by relays.
What other cool things could you, if you could change tags on a note while also preserving the reference id?

2024-03-01 05:38:01

My primal experience on mobile has not been great.
The app is failing to load new posts or let me sign in. It seems like the app is hanging on connecting to a server somewhere, this is before connecting to a relay.
I gave up on the app and tried using a PWA. Primal web doesn't seem to render properly, and the profile button is unclickable so I can't login.
Also I really don't like how it leaks a bunch of metadeta about my DMs in cleartext. That is really not great.
The sonar loading animation looks really cool though.

This project is amazing. The hosted demo does not give it justice, as there are no posts on the demo account.
Once configured with your npub, the blog page will display your NIP-23 long form posts. Including reposts from stacker news. :-)
If you login as the configured npub, there is a slick WYSIWYG editor for making NIP-23 posts from the site.
Also, it looks like the author implemented the nostr integration from scratch, which is based.
I just wish there was a delete button. I may have to add one.

I was working on something similar for a hackathon project (though we avoided using arbitrary inscriptions to claim names).
You need to add a DNS server to your network settings that tells your computer where to resolve the custom domain (in this case .sats).
There's nothing stopping you from claiming names yourself, however the question is how the DNS server (hosting the .sats domain) will determine the ownership.
