Nostr Web Services (NWS): Enable TCP on Nostr Nostr Web Services (NWS) is a new technology that uses Nostr to replace the IP layer in TCP transport, providing a secure connection between clients and backend services. This means that web services can be reached without requiring a publicly accessible IP address or DNS, and instead can be accessed through nprofiles, which are combinations of a Nostr public key and multiple relays. The developer, @asmogo, has announced the technology but notes that it is still in an early state and not yet released. Existing services can be run on NWS without requiring significant changes.

Padawan Wallet v0.13.0: Portuguese Language, Migration to Signet Padawan is a testnet-only Bitcoin wallet trainer for Android, which serves as a self-study tool for users to learn about mobile wallet workflows and jargon in a risk-free environment. The latest version supports the app entirely in Portuguese and has migrated to Signet. Users need to uninstall the previous version before installing this new one as it will break the current installation. The codebase has been moved to KMP structure, and various chapters have been translated to Portuguese. Additionally, bdk-android has been updated to 1.0.0-alpha.13. Users are encouraged to report bugs and share any UI issues.

Bitcoin Optech Newsletter #312 Recap Podcast The Bitcoin Optech Podcast #312 discusses various recent developments and changes in the Bitcoin ecosystem. At 1:37, Mark Erhardt, Mike Schmidt, Jonas Nick, and Pieter Wuille introduce Distributed Key Generation (DKG) protocol for FROST. A DKG allows a group of participants to create a shared private key without needing to bring all their individual private keys together in one place. This has useful applications in areas like multisig wallets and payment channels. At 28:45, they discuss cluster linearization, which helps improve the efficiency of transactions within a cluster.

Several changes to services and client software are discussed. ZEUS (56:15) and Phoenix (57:02) have added BOLT12 offers and BIP353 support for better privacy and performance in LN payments. Stack Wallet (57:42) has implemented Replace-by-Fee (RBF) and Child-Pays-for-Parent (CPFP) functionalities. BlueWallet (57:59) introduced silent payment send support to enable offline signing.

Additionally, a BOLT12 Playground (59:10) has been announced for testing the BOLT12 specification and Moosig Testing Repository (59:56) is available for experimentation with MuSig scripts. A Real-time Stratum Visualization Tool (1:01:01) was released to help developers monitor LN connections, while a BMM 100 Mini Miner (1:01:57) was announced for those interested in building their own mining devices. Coldcard published a URL-based transaction broadcast specification (1:02:32) as well.

Various code and documentation changes are highlighted, including improvements to Bitcoin Core (#26596 at 1:09:38), Core Lightning (#7455 at 1:11:27), Eclair (#2878 at 1:11:58), Rust Bitcoin (#2646 at 1:13:03), BDK (#1489 at 1:13:55), as well as proposed changes to BIPs (#1599 at 1:15:22) and BOLTs (#1173 at 1:17:50).
