   @victor @Moon @silverpill These hackers forked the nostr protocol and stripped out all the cruft and crypto bullshit and created a slick library that will allow client programs to create the ultimate censorship-free, redundant, efficient, fastest, most featured social networks that could possibly be imagined by the human mind.
   
   AND they're just giving it away for free!
   No gatekleeping!!11111
   Anyone can make an app based on this!!!!!

     @shaunh @10grans @victor @caekislove @Moon I'm working on a multi-currency payment system for Fediverse. Started with Ethereum and added Monero later.
     There are many challenges because as you say everyone wants to pump specific coins and that leads to extreme fragmentation. Adding new coins is a lot of work. Cross-chain standards do exist but almost nobody uses them.

     @Moon @victor @10grans @caekislove @silverpill To the extent that combining payments with a social network is desirable, it's most useful if it isn't tied to any currency in particular at all and simply lets the participants use whichever ones they want.
     
     Nobody in the crypto scene is going to built that though because it they only work on projects that pump specific coins.

     @shaunh @victor @caekislove @silverpill you're not required to tip to use nostr and bitcoin is basically the king coin not a rent-seeking shitcoin you're forced to use like @10grans makeitrain .5

     @caekislove @victor @silverpill @Moon That was always the dirty little secret of all the appcoin-based business models: if anyone ever invented something that was actually useful then it would be immediately forked to remove the coin and keep the underlying features.
     
     No amount of cryptographic snake oil can ever make digital coin clipping a viable strategy in the long term.

     @shaunh @10grans @victor @caekislove @Moon This post describes the structure of Monero transactions: https://comit.network/blog/2021/05/19/monero-transaction/
     But I haven't seen any materials explaining the p2p network. Currently there's only one node implementation

     @silverpill @victor @10grans @caekislove @Moon Since you mentioned Monero, do you happen to know if they have the equivalent of this documentation?
     
     https://developer.bitcoin.org/reference/
     
     The multichain work I have done in the past does not involve speaking RPC to a server running somewhere else - it consists of joining the P2P network as a peer and interacting with it natively.
     
     This is easy enough for Bitcoin-derived protocols because they are so well documented, and would presumably be the same for Ethereum although I haven't started on that yet.
     
     But I've had no luck finding the documentation I'd need to attempt this approach for Monero which is a shame.
