Inspiration
Bitcoin and Nostr solved money and identity, the base layers of our society, but commerce as a second layer is still mostly captured by the State and corporate interest. Local businesses lose up to 40% of their revenues to intermediaries like centralized delivery app (12-30% take rate), banks (4% MDR) and the State (5-15% taxes).
What it does
Kartapio allows merchants to publish their products to Nostr and receive orders and payments from any Nostr client that implements NIP-15.
How it's built
We built it using Typescript/Svelte, the NDK library for Nostr integration, bitcoinConnect for NWC integration and Shadcn as our frontend component library. The project is a static page hosted on Cloudflare.
What's next for Kartapio
Allow customers to create/sign in to their own Nostr accounts in order to write/read reviews and discover new venues based on their web-of-trust. Support stablecoins (especially on Bitcoin) as an alternative payment method for broader adoption Generate product events from a photo of the menu using LLM to make merchant onboarding easier Monetization features like: freemium relays, featured venues, fiat payment processing, integration with delivery partners and premium productivity features.

Try it out
every fucking time... once a project start nice, it gets fucked up by going back to fiat crap.
Did not notice that! Shame on it...
Should be forked and cleaned. I mean, removing all that crap.
Something that need to be considered it is from Brazil, Florianopolis. A project out of the btc++ that was organized there recently.
some people cannot live outside fiat mindset.... and will be forever losers.
give them a chance. at least they are tying to build something. it needs refinement
the idea is good, nothing against that. But in the moment you introduce fiat crap, the whole thing goes down. GUARANTEED.
Very cool
good idea, but got corrupted in the making... so will be a dead project soon.
