GitHub flagged our org (ngx-l402) and hid it from the public — almost certainly a false positive. We've appealed. We moved to rails no one can deplatform.

📦 Release v1.2.7 (nginx 1.28.0, linux/x86_64), on Blossom — content-addressed and verifiable:

ngx-l402 is an open-source nginx module that puts a Lightning (L402) paywall in front of any HTTP API — non-custodial, self-hosted. Fitting that it now lives on rails no one can take down.

Introducing Paygress: Permissionless Cloud Compute ⚡
Spinning up a VM today usually means:
hand over your ID, add a credit card, and trust some company that logs everything
Paygress flips that.
A decentralized compute marketplace built on Nostr + Cashu.
No accounts. No KYC.
How it works:
→ Providers advertise compute on Nostr relays
→ You discover and request a VM — all communication flows through Nostr
→ Cashu tokens settle instantly, carry zero identity
→ No central server sits in between
Have a Linux box collecting dust? One command turns it into a provider LXC or Proxmox backend. Workloads are isolated. Expired ones get cleaned up automatically.
Everything happens over Nostr
Paygress can be used to run:
- Nostr relays
- CI pipeline
- OpenClaw
- anything you’d normally throw on a VM.
Permissionless infrastructure for a permissionless internet.

@nprofile…xg2f Its working fine with both minibits and phoenix wallet now. Thanks for testing it out.

Thanks for using it and pointing that out! You’re right — the transport field is missing, and I’ll fix that. I’m planning to add "t" as an empty array for now, since L402 currently uses an implicit transport method via X-Cashu headers. However, I’m open to discussing whether we should introduce explicit transport methods (like Nostr or HTTP POST) for receiving eCash, though that might add unnecessary complexity to the otherwise simple L402 protocol.

🚀 Excited to share that ngx_L402—our lightweight NGINX module for Lightning-based payments—has been selected for an OpenSats grant in their 13th Wave!
Big thanks to the OpenSats team and community for believing in the vision! 🙏
Ready to build the future of bitcoin-powered APIs.
