Nostr (Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays) is a decentralized protocol for censorship-resistant communication. Unlike traditional platforms, your identity and data aren't controlled by any single company.

Your Nostr identity is a cryptographic key pair - a public key (npub) that others use to find you, and a private key (nsec) that proves you are you. Keep your nsec safe and never share it!

1. Generate or Import Keys

Create a new Nostr identity or import an existing one using your nsec. Your keys are used to sign all marketplace events.

2. Create a Stall

A stall is your shop. Give it a name, description, and configure shipping zones for delivery.

3. Add Products

List items for sale with images, descriptions, and prices in your preferred currency.

4. Publish to Nostr

Your stall and products are published to Nostr relays where customers can discover them using any compatible marketplace client.

Decentralized Commerce - Your shop exists on Nostr relays, not a single server. No platform fees, no deplatforming risk.

Lightning Payments - Accept instant, low-fee Bitcoin payments via the Lightning Network.

Portable Identity - Your merchant reputation travels with your Nostr keys across any compatible marketplace.
