Nostr Wallet Connect and Lightning Node Connect do fit that purpose, but it doesn't seem like a lot of the player apps integrate them yet:

There's even a fancy widget for users to add node/wallet connections to your app: https://bitcoin-connect.com/

That's actually not that bad. You still have change sets that are versioned and can be rolled forward. It beats the "hey run this directory of sql scripts" approach I used to do.

Cascade tells it to apply actions on the parent table to child tables. For example, if you deleted a feed out of the feeds table, it would cascade that action down to any table that has feed_id as a foreign key (e.g. feed poll rolls, feed value tags, etc).
It's to avoid the case where you've deleted a feed_id from the feeds table, but other tables still reference that feed_id.

The accounting for streaming sats is done every second, but presumably you're not sending out payments every second. You could batch those up and send them out every minute or 5 minutes or at whatever cadence makes logistical sense for your application.
With the adoption of LNURL and Bolt12 discussed in the last PC20, it might make sense to send at a less frequent cadence to allow more time for invoices to be generated and returned back.

I've updated to the latest version of the extension (3.9.0) and sent out a test boost to PC20 from Curiocaster.
It looks like it doesn't show the boostagram info and only sent out to 3 of the 9 splits. Maybe the Megalithic LSP I'm using isn't as well-connected as the others?

I sent it through CurioCaster and it seemed like it did send the payment out.
Maybe some of the splits didn't get sent or maybe the TLVs got dropped? The browser extension stopped showing TLVs once I switched to Hub so I can't tell which is the case.

And actually with IoC, you don't even need to request it. You just need to have your controller function list the API class as a parameter and Laravel is smart enough to use the AppServiceProvider logic to instantiate the class and send it to your function.

The platform subscription model is less sustainable. Talk to any of the musicians now doing v4v and they will tell you that Spotify pays them $0 for their music. Some of these artists have millions of plays and have received nothing for them.

mentioned this to me when he put together the PR. Basically it would be a UUID that is common across all the split payments of a boost.
There's nothing right now that lets you trace particular split payments back to the boost that generated them.

I think Podping is a better solution. You put all the changes on a distributed ledger and anyone who is interested can subscribe to the ledger.
The solution they recommend seems to require a server that has to go out and notify each subscribing aggregator separately of every new change.

You just need to know his PubKey and IP/Tor address combo. You can get that in Start9 by going to LND, clicking Properties, and copying the Node URI value:

I guess Mutiny Wallet is another option.
It uses a Fedimint eCash system which is like a less centralized custodial wallet. You pick a mint to hold your sats, it issues eCash notes for your sats, and you exchange the notes for sats when you want to use them. We could in theory create our own Podcasting 2.0 mint for people to use https://fedimint.org/docs/GettingStarted/Why-Fedimint
I'm not a huge fan of this idea since it's still custodial and adds another layer to an already complex Bitcoin/lightning system.

@npub18a6…pny4 I just noticed that LN Beats seems to auto boost the next track rather than the track I finished listening to.
For example, I just listened to The Knuckledragger album by Them Teeth which has Hammslamm, Whitewash, and Packin' A Rod as tracks. It auto boosted Whitewash after Hammslamm ended, then Packin' A Rod after Whitewash ended, and then Packing' A Rod again after that song finished:

What are you looking to do? I think Adam mentioned on PC20 about having a list of boosts on a page, which is definitely possible. The scoreboard right now receives all the boosts and totals them to generate the top score list.

Yes, happy to help. I will be out on vacation again June 6th - 17th but can help out afterwards.
I also need to get an updated scoreboard out for Boo-Bury's Battle of the Bands show at the end of the month.

- reply

The source code for the 12 rods concert scoreboard (and upcoming concert) is here: https://github.com/ericpp/scoreboard
Alby (and now Helipad) send webhooks to its API whenever a boost comes into my node/wallet. The code runs on a free Vercel instance, is backed by a free Supabase database, and uses Nostr as a dumb notification system to push new boosts to the user. That part could just be replaced by a websocket server if desired.

That looks like it has all the fields I would need. Here are the fields currently used in the database (webhooks are basically a copy): https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/helipad?tab=readme-ov-file#webhooks
It can be run on anything that has Docker installed: https://hub.docker.com/r/podcastindexorg/podcasting20-helipad .
The database is just a sqlite file stored in /data. It's useful to have for storing settings and caching the boost data.
The biggest hurdle is its reliance on LND. I would like to update it to be able to talk to anything.

That looks really good! Is that going to include a leaderboard or is it just a boosting page?

That's my general idea is to have groups of people boosting to get their favorite artist to the fancy top spot.
Showing the top boosters for each artist shows you who you need to collude with to get it there. We could maybe put the top boosted message for each as well.

Or if you want to highlight the top place, something like this:

A fee split of 1% should work in most cases. I think some players drop split payments that calculate to < 1 sat so you might need to bump it higher if you want to see those.

I think an LND-compatible REST API would work. A generic REST API similar to the one Alby has might work too: https://guides.getalby.com/developer-guide/v/alby-wallet-api/reference/api-reference/invoices
I'm also interested in using the Nostr Wallet Connect system that Alby put together that let apps talk to nodes/wallets over Nostr relays: https://github.com/getAlby/nostr-wallet-connect-next . It needs to incorporate the TLV records in the invoice/payment responses though.

2024-05-11 17:46:05

- reply

Helipad is just using the standard LND gRPC API to get node info, balance, invoices, and payments. It checks the invoice and payments on a timed loop and parses and stores any new incoming or outgoing boosts that it finds. The webhook code I added basically just forwards a copy of those parsed boosts to an HTTP endpoint of your choosing.
I do want to eventually support other nodes/wallets (e.g. CLN, Eclair, Alby, Breez, etc) https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/helipad/issues/70
