Next we have Abhay Raizada on Breaking Out of the Bitcoin & Nostr Bubble
How do you stay true to the principles while making the project work in the real world?
Building an open-source project is one thing. Turning it into something sustainable is another. Abhay shares the realities of balancing community ideals with business practicalities, and the difficult decisions that shape a project as it grows.
Day 2 at the @thebitmela FOSS Stage starts with @_paperpsych
Back for another day of conversations, ideas, and hands-on work from people building in the open.
We're picking up where we left off. More Bitcoin, more open-source development, and more knowledge shared directly by the builders.

What if the unused disk space on your laptop or home computer could become part of a shared storage network?
@itsmanasdash is demoing a Nostr-based storage orchestrator that lets people pool spare storage without running a central server or exposing their public IP address.
The engineering challenge is coordinating storage across independent machines while keeping the system self-hostable and built on open protocols.
Instead of depending entirely on a central cloud provider, this approach explores how existing resources can be combined into distributed infrastructure.
Next up at BOSS Summit: @ajay_sehwal on Nostr Wallet Connect (NWC) and its integration into @ZeusLN
NWC (NIP-47) lets apps communicate with Lightning wallets through encrypted messages over Nostr relays, without needing a direct connection to the node.
In ZEUS, connections can use QR codes or connection strings, with per-app permissions and spending limits. ZEUS can also connect to external NWC-compatible wallets.

Closing out the Day 3 sessions at BOSS Summit with @siddhantcookie on Formstr Drive.
Four attendees uploaded their first file to the drive and walked away with 1,000 sats each + @HeyFormstr merch.
Check it out: drive.formstr.app
That wraps up three days of technical sessions, demos, workshops, and builders sharing what they're working on.
But we're not done yet. For the next two days, Bitshala will be at the @thebitmela FOSS Stage. We'll be sharing updates from the stage and posting everything live on X as it happens.
Stay tuned, two exciting days ahead, adios! 🧡
Now on stage at BOSS Summit: @iamthesvn on Monetizing APIs with L402 and ngx_l402
What if an API could charge per request in sats, without API keys, subscriptions, or a central payment processor?
ngx_l402 is an open-source NGINX module that puts a Lightning paywall in front of existing HTTP APIs.
A client requests a protected endpoint. The server responds with 402 Payment Required and a Lightning invoice. After payment, the client provides the L402 credentials, and NGINX verifies them before forwarding the request.
This helps open up new ways to monetize APIs, AI inference, and machine-to-machine services over Lightning.

Big news!
@TIME's Best Inventions of 2026 list is out now, and we’re over the moon to be selected as one of three in the Apps and Software category!
But this award really belongs to all our Diviners who embraced that mission and made Divine what it is. You built this 💚
If you're a bitcoin business, and you want a service that can route emails to and from your domain, Mailstr has you covered!
Introducing Mailstr Workspaces! It's basically a cheaper, private and more sovereign version of Google Workspace!
mailstr.app/mails/workspace
So if you use formstr calendar ( calendar.formstr.app ) you can now invite people outside of nostr to your calendar events, with your mailstr email!
We are working hard to ensure you can squeeze every sat out of the 1000 you spend on your mailstr address!
You all are sleeping on nostr, we've already replaced github: gitworkshop.dev

Summer of Bitcoin 2026: complete ✅
Spent the summer at Formstr building Nostr-based tools in the open-source Bitcoin ecosystem. Shipped real features, learned a ton, grateful for the mentorship.
Onward as an SoB alum 🚀

New Bitspace is open and the events are back on our calendar.
This weekend the beginners get special attention.
If you want to learn fundamentals of bitcoin, fundamentals of money, or fundamentals of how to protect your data and privacy online then Bitspace is the place to be on 19th & 20th September in Bangalore!
Event links below 👇
The only way to ensure you're not a part of any data leak, is to make sure that the product/services you use do not have any data to begin with.
Mailstr just got a BIG privacy upgrade!
Emails are now end-to-end encrypted by default whenever possible, using OpenPGP + WKD. 🎉
@ProtonPrivacy users: encryption just works. 💚
Gmail & other non-WKD providers? Password encryption is coming soon!

In our latest article, Abhay breaks down Mailstr, how it works, the trade-offs, and why connecting Nostr to the existing email ecosystem matters.
What happens when we rethink email around open protocols, Nostr identities and user-controlled data?
