Thrilled to hear Castamatic is testing NWC! Awesome! No longer will I have podcast wallets hit zero balance without realizing it. Auto top ups with a monthly budget will be fantastic!

Love all the talk of future Coldcard features in this episode, but the one I want the most is still missing from the list. The ability to export a secure note which has been encrypted with deterministic entropy so it can be decrypted on any Coldcard with the same seed & passphrase. This would be huge for inheritance planning.

So it’s still relying on getalby.com to connect to your node and create an invoice, but this achieves you getting to pick your own lightning address (using your own domain), correct?

@nprofile…3zem when trying to pay for a phone number, I get “error creating order” regardless of which service or country I chose. Is there a known outage currently? Has been like this for at least 8 hours (unsure how long as I haven’t used the service for a few weeks prior).

Thanks for thinking through encrypted note export with the team. The ability to use a different BIP-39 passphrase for your note-decrypting wallet vs. your main wallet, but still use the same SeedXOR backups, would be very useful.

In response to SaltyCrayon’s boost, a reminder that if a Podcasting app were to add NWC, you’d be able to connect to at least 15 different wallets, some custodial, some non custodial, plenty that adhere to KISS. You don’t need to interact with Nostr to connect a wallet via NWC. The solution exists.

Would still love the ability to export a Secure Note encrypted with bip85 entropy that can be decrypted at any point in the future by a coldcard running the same seed/passphrase combo. A stacker news poll showed over 50% of users would be interested in this feature https://stacker.news/items/853095

Poll: Gauging interest in a proposed Coldcard feature
## 🔍 Background Context
From an inheritance planning perspective, assume you already have a geographical distribution of seed phrases and passphrases which would allow a family member to recover funds. Assume multisig, Seed XOR, a combination, or something similar. The specifics are irrelevant to this thought experiment, just assume effort has already been put in to distribute backup information for an inheritance-based recovery plan.
## 💡 Proposed Feature
It would be great to be able to pass along additional encrypted notes that could be decrypted with one of Coldcard's BIP-85 deterministic passwords. This way, in a situation where a family member has recovered the setup, they could load the additional encrypted note(s) into their Coldcard and read them. Or just decrypt the note(s) on their computer by entering the BIP-85 password (BIP-85 password #5 for example).
## 📝 Current Implementation
Currently Coldcard Q does allow for typing notes on device and encrypting them. However, exporting these in encrypted form means generating a new set of backup words. This means every time you'd want to add to, or alter your inheritance information (add a new 2FA secret, alter an instruction, etc.), you now have a new set of words that that needs backing up. Being able to encrypt these using BIP-85 determinist entropy from the existing seed phrase / passphase combination that is already geographically distributed would be a huge improvement.

I’m looking for the ability to lose everything, but still be able to access encrypted notes (notes exported from coldcard) as long as I still have access to my existing seed phrase AND passphrase. It doesn’t seem like Secure Clone allows for that. Is there an anything technical preventing such a feature in the future? Just curious if it is design choice or a technical limitation. Thanks!

Is there a technical limitation that prevents Coldcard Q from being able to type a note, and export it encrypted with a deterministic encryption key, so that it can only be decrypted on another Q with the same seed AND same passphrase? Thanks!

2024-10-15 11:40:26 UTC

Yea, I found that out unfortunately. Also, if you back up the full device, not only are you given a new 12 words to protect, but if you were previously using a passphrase, now your device backup has the passphrase derived wallet as the main seed (i.e no longer passphrase protected), which is unfortunate. I’d love a way to use deterministic entropy to export encrypted secure notes (bring the note back to the coldcard and it can be decrypted only if you’re in the right wallet), but it seems that’s not currently possible. Wasn’t able to get an answer from support if it’s a technical limitation or just a design choice.

AppVerifier to verify the authenticity of the APKs you download with Obtainium. You can either verify the public key hash of the signing certificate with some other source (ideally the app developer from a source other than GitHub where you downloaded the APK) or from AllVerifier’s database which will tell you if you’re getting the same hash others have gotten previously. https://github.com/soupslurpr/AppVerifier

Going back through some of these posts and testing out ZapplePay (https://www.zapplepay.com) with Mutiny. Seems to be working great. One main limitation of iOS Nostr clients is they can zap profiles, but usually not individual posts (as the former is safer from the standpoint of Apple’s terms of service and Apple not getting their massive 30% cut). ZapplePay is a really nice workaround. You still have to open Mutiny for them all to send, but, if you have them set to auto approve (up to a certain pre-set daily budget), all zaps get sent with zero clicks the next time you open your wallet. For something which is always online, such as a custodial wallet like Alby, or your own node, then the zaps get sent immediately.

2024-01-22 06:14:07 UTC

I left the meetup wanting to find a Nostr client which 1) has groups so I could have a tab just for local Nostr follows and 2) has the ability to sign up for alerts for any post by a given user. Nostur (https://nostur.com) is the first app I found that has both of those things already. Liking it a lot. Seems it is iOS only though. Going to give it a shot as my daily driver. @npub12pj…tnn5 @npub1ynn…2qfd @npub1xgy…gu7s

Nostr wallet connect is great for letting apps pull sats from Alby. It would also be great if I could use NWC to add funds to Alby in other situations. Normally I top up Alby manually, but if I had it set to where my balance got below a certain level, auto topping off from another NWC capable source would be really nice.

Perhaps a dumb question, but how does one navigate to n/satellite ? https://satellite.earth/n/satellite doesn’t seem to do the trick.

Whether or not the subsidy is one time, vs repetitive over the lifetime of the vehicle is fairly irrelevant. The total cost of how much the government subsidizes any mode of transportation (be it materials costs, construction costs, infrastructure for refueling, fuel or electricity costs, assistance with running the system itself, safety oversight, end of life costs, costs of research and development, etc.) should be compared, not just one of many aspects while pretending many others aren’t also at play. Not arguing the subsidies are a good use of funds, just that your initial question was only looking at one small fraction of the overall subsidies at play.

2023-02-28 14:16:50 UTC

- reply

Gas (in the US at least) is pretty highly subsidized. Something like an estimated $12+ dollars per gallon without subsidies (current average gas price $3.41). There are plenty of other variables to compare as well, but it’s not like only EVs are being subsidized. Whether or not any of these subsidies are funds well spent or which subsides (gas vs EV vehicles) have a better economic return is another question entirely (and a good one at that).

I used https://nostr.info/relays/ to pick relays once and haven’t had an issue since. I filtered by “sent us many events without dropping”, and skipped the relays which seemed to be getting overrun with events. Basically picked those near the high end of incoming event rate but stopped short of the outliers. However, I’m sure many improvements to picking relays will come. I see some relays are adding functionality through query parameters, when you add the relay, you can include your npub in the websocket address and then only see notes from people you follow and people they follow. Some relays you add will also send your notes to other popular relays. Seems like there is a lot of experimentation going on currently, and a lot of new functionality will become standard practice soon enough.
