What would be helpful is (like we do on Geyser), just show the twitter handle if a user logs in with twitter - same for github and nostr.
How do we know that the creator is the actual creator? So for ex, if Maxis club (https://geyser.fund/project/maxisclub) creates a project, how do we know that it's him and not some random dude posing as him? There is no way to see that they login with their social profile on SN, or am I missing something?
If this is the case, Geyser could host it and FW sats to the creator wallet... it's quite hacky :P
Great questions, @nout!
As per the process, I agree it matters a lot and it's still not clear what's best..
geyser SN account creates new SN post once a week that introduces the specific creator? (geyser team takes care of the introduction, maybe including small summary, ideas for questions, maybe inline picture...)
We want to make it a smooth experience, that's why were thinking of Geyser creating the AMA thread, introducing the creators, educating creator about SN, helping them create an account, notifying them, etc. as you said.
With this approach, the problem is that we'll need to custody the funds, we can't FW sats directly via SN to the project@geyser.fund. Which, makes this approach quite poor UX.
The alternative is to use a ~geyser channel and allow the creators to craft the entire AMA themselves. This would be preferable for Geyser and the creators, as we don't need to manage funds. Geyser can support/guide creators on how to do it. The problem is the incoming funds would still be stuck in their SN wallet and not count towards their Geyser campaigns.
How are you going to raise visibility for the AMA happening?
Geyser can help in marketing the AMA event across social media.
Yes, we'll probably do that. Just wanted to recognize that this will add value for both Geyser+SN!! :)
The main blocker was being able to forward sats to Geyser projects' ln address (e.g. project@geyser.fund) directly, which SN still is not allowing you to FW to wallets outside of SN.
So we'd have to either
- hack it by receiving sats in Geyser SN wallet and then sending out the sats to the project,
- SN could allow funds to flow to @geyser.fund ln addresses.
If you're interested we'd love to get you involved in this if you're interested!
Prob the best way is joining our Discord: https://discord.gg/ugxtDpRV and we can talk more in there :)
Seems like this first iteration of lightning will need to go through 'registered custodians'. Custodians that comply with banking licenses, and so forth, like ZBD, Osmo, Strike, etc.
What I'd like to see are Wallets that are interfaces ( A bit like what Fedi is doing), but which connect to different node providers, that do the custody for you. And nodes have a reputation system (on Nostr), and can specify which jurisdictions they would like to operate in.
Again, A fedi-like interface but where you select which lightning custodial nodes become your custodians. User decides which node to receive custody from, based on available liquidity and reputation of the node runner. Like with Nostr, anyone can be a node runner.
This provides a modular approach to running and using lightning, which is also more censorship resistant.
I enabled it but don't see anything new/different in the home page.
It would be cool to have a toggle in the front page where i can select between different discovery modes: Top news, Greeter, Random or whatever, rather than having to go to settings to change this. You probably made this decision for a particular reason, just some thoughts, and great work!
