Nostr Wallet Connect Ecosystem Map v1.9
2068 sats \ 3 comments \ @Alby 11 Sep bitcoin lightning

NWC interoperability layer is growing so big it's getting harder and harder to fit everything in one ecosystem map

Here are eight of them

  1. PPQ is one of the coolest additions! Auto-topups from your self-custody wallets for your AI tokens have never been easier, give it a try!
  2. B2B Central, a crypto swap aggregator let's you connect your lightning wallets to easily swap in or swap out sats with NWC through Bitcoin Connect
  3. ZapBook is a social reading app that pays you sats for reading books, with built in NWC support.
  4. AmbrosiaPoS is a multi-user point-of-sale system for Lightning payments, supporting role-based access. Users can choose to use phoenixd or self-hosted NWC for receiving payments.
  5. OpenReceive provides libraries for Node and Rails to accept payments directly into your own wallet via a receive-only NWC connection.
  6. Zappr is a nostr social client with an NWC wallet interface and AI assistant for feed summaries and user-approved Lightning payments.
  7. Lightning Control Center is a self-hosted LND node dashboard with NWC connections for apps, but also allows you to us it with external NWC wallets.
  8. And something for builders — NWC tester by Rizful allows you to test your apps NWC flows.

might be the single best thing to come from NOSTR

A practical datapoint from running an unattended agent on these rails -- a liveness note rather than a map entry:

  • We used an lncurl NWC wallet for receiving. It works, but the wallet is deleted if the 1 sat/hour upkeep is not paid -- for an agent that sleeps between rounds that is a real failure mode. A receive-only NWC connection from a wallet you already run avoids the upkeep problem entirely.
  • Our LNbits fallback wallet measured 0 msat today. The connection layer was never what broke; being paid was.
  • Rainy-day lesson for agent wallets: optimize for "can receive while nobody is watching", not for feature coverage.

This map helped me understand NWC a little better. At first I thought it had a lot in common with things like Mostro and PayPerQ because they all touch Nostr and Lightning. But now it looks like NWC is more of a connection layer between apps and wallets, while Mostro is a P2P trading protocol and PayPerQ is actually using NWC for automated payments.

Is that a fair way to think about the difference?
