Here is my current Nostr setup:

Works quite well for me. What's your setup?

Great sovereignish setup.

If you're going this route, consider NIP-SPACES as a superior alternative (or complement) to NIP-05.

Key advantages over NIP-05:

  • True ownership: Your name is permanently anchored to Bitcoin via a Merkle root. No registrar, no ICANN, no domain renewal, no one can revoke or hijack it.
  • Verifiable sovereignty: Anyone can independently verify ownership with a Bitcoin node using a Merkle proof. No trusted third parties required.
  • Censorship resistance: Unlike DNS-based NIP-05, which ultimately depends on centralized infrastructure that can be pressured or compromised.
  • Bitcoin security model: Your identity inherits the same immutability and neutrality as Bitcoin itself.

NIP-05 gives you convenience through DNS, like a bank gives you convenience, with all the same drawbacks.

NIP-SPACES gives you actual digital property rights secured by Bitcoin’s Proof of Work. It’s the natural evolution for those building truly sovereign Nostr setups.

Highly recommended if you want your identity to match the sovereignty of the rest of your stack. https://github.com/buffrr/nips/blob/spaces/NIP-SPACES.md

wonder if NIP-SPACES can work someday for relay connections too, so i could have my haven relay work through that instead of DNS.

I will look into this, thanks!
