First time seeing this. Thanks for sharing.

It feels more to me like it breaks the glass ceiling for those who have app ideas they wish existed so they could use, but not necessarily for those who want to make apps for the masses. If you want something for you and your friends to have access to, current tools are great for that. Once you want more than that, you’re still going to have an app full of issues that is challenging to scale. Not to mention a host of other issues. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may want some legal insulation to protect yourself personally from any proprietary code that may have gotten incorporated into your vibe coded app; something that would be less of an issue for a free app you share but more of an issue if you’re charging for it and it becomes popular.

Mullvad was the only service I had ever used bitcoin cash for since it allowed me to buy a few hours of a vpn at a time, especially when on chain bitcoin fees were high. I was hoping when mullvad’s lightning payments came out of beta they’d also allow for smaller time intervals, but it seems the minimum is still a month. Lnvpn.net used to have less than a day as well I believe. Seems altcoins through Mullvad is still the only way to get a vpn for an hour if needed. Missed opportunity.

Honorable mention for http://shakespeare.diy/ which has been very impressive so far for quickly generating simple web apps

Thanks. Dug a bit deeper, and I’ll probably just go with a Bolt12 invoice in a DNS record and skip the needing a server part (I.e BIP353). Seems Bolt12 adoption is growing; hopefully that’ll be the norm soon. A lot easier for the average person to grab a cheap domain and add a DNS record.

Any recommendations here? Or info about the resources it is needing to run? Thanks!

Looks very interesting. Has anyone tested the minimum VPS requirements for running Thor? Seems it would be great for low-resource deployments since you're not running a full LN node, but just using NWC to connect back to a node that doesn't need to be exposed to clearnet.

More can be found here:

Since it requires the app (presumably), I’d include some more details about the app on the website/preorder page. Seems like that is a consideration before preordering 450k sat hardware.

I wish bluewallet would add lightning via NWC. I have a number of friends and family who use bluewallet and letting them add lightning in via NWC would be great.

Well done*. Not well down.

Update: Just saw this at the bottom of their webpage. This is great. Just need to link to it somewhere from the app, but respect. Thats really well down.

Those links plus a note on what fees (if any) Blitz takes on top would be perfect. Much better than no information at all.

I wish it was standard for all wallets to have a tab that explained what types of fees you might encounter and who they’re going to. Seems this web wallet uses Spark and Breez Liquid SDK. Not sure what fees are typical with Spark. I assume the Breez liquid SDK means Boltz swap fees at least. Are there any fees for Blitz itself? Would love to see that overview somewhere. If I make a request for 100,000 sats, the receive screen says fee: 0 sats. That seems surprising.

Yea, perhaps a good starting point for an open source list that has more parameters.

This article has projected number of wins (based on FPI) in the 2025 season for the top 20 college football teams. Scalar markets to bet on total number of wins in the season for teams would be fun. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/45284359/2025-college-football-fpi-power-index-best-matchups-title-odds

Is a simple point of sale terminal view in the roadmap of Misty Breez?

Thanks!

Any idea how to steam it in the US? I heard Fubo, but it’s not showing up in the guide anywhere. Just seeing Tuesday’s final listed.

I could get behind ₿10,000 as long as it was said out loud as “10,000 sats” or “10,000 satoshis” and have 10,000 bitcoin still be written as 10,000 BTC or 10,000 bitcoin. If you just write 10,000 sats on something, one argument is those who have heard of bitcoin might still have no idea what ‘sats’ are. Standardizing the ₿ symbol for sats might be the happy middle ground.
