GM plebs!

The team has been heads down coding and refining decentralized auctions on Plebeian Market!! We’re getting sooooooo close, and the excitement is real!

We’re also doing a UI overhaul and adding more tools for merchants. The bigger vision still matter: a sovereign commerce ecosystem where plebs own their shops, their sales, and their freedom.

But the most useful thing to say this week is:

🤝 The marketplace is live! 🤝

You can list.

You can buy.

You can trade peer-to-peer with Bitcoin.

Visit the Marketplace

Your keys, your stall, your rules. Sovereign commerce on the Bitcoin standard 🧡

What you can do right now 👀

Sell

• Open a stall signed by your own Nostr key.

• Your listing lives on relays, not in a company database.

Buy

• Pay real makers directly in sats.

• No middleman holding the funds.

Keep control

• There is no mandatory platform fee.

• Value for Value is optional.

Get Started

This week in the Bazaar 🛍️

Big welcome to these new shops:

1. Stackchain Magazine: Bitcoin culture in print. Essays, interviews, art, and memes 😂

2. Bitcoin Art Magazine: A magazine where sound money and visual art meet. Made for collectors and curious bitcoiners alike 🎨

3. The Calf at Foot Dairy: A real working dairy in the UK. You can order milk and beef boxes, or book a half-day or full day at the farm and see how it all works in person 🐄

4. Jimble’s Jumble: Homemade jams, marmalades, and chutneys. Seville marmalade, rhubarb and cherry jam, hot chili jam, piccalilli, and more… 🍒

This week’s update is straightforward and real:

Work is continuing on auctions.

This part of the stack is still under active development and testing. The focus right now is making sure the flow is solid before anything is published publicly.

No big public launch yet.

Check out our GitHub to learn more.

Why this model is different 🔑

Most platforms rent you space.

They take a cut.

They own the relationship.

Start with what’s live 🛒

More tools are being built on the same foundation. But you don’t need to wait for the rest of the roadmap.

List something you make or buy something real with sats.⚡

GM plebs!

We’re deep in the trenches building something special right now. The team has been heads-down coding and refining decentralized auctions on Plebeian Market!!

The first real native auctions on Nostr. We’re getting seriously close, and the excitement is real.

This is going to be a game-changer.

We’re also doing a big UI overhaul and adding more powerful tools for merchants. The vision is clear: a full sovereign commerce ecosystem where plebs own their shops, their sales, and their freedom.

Your keys, your stall, your rules. Sovereign commerce on the Bitcoin standard 🧡

The bazaar keeps growing with fresh pleb energy. Big welcome to these new shops:

Fresh from the Huddle 🛠

This week’s update is straightforward and real:

One marketplace. Many doors.

Plebeian now speaks the shared Nostr marketplace language more completely. Listings and orders work more cleanly across compatible clients (Conduit, Shopstr, and other Gamma Market apps).

A stall you create here is not locked inside one app.

We also shipped a concrete privacy improvement: personal delivery details are automatically stripped from public events before anything is broadcast. Your buyer’s information stays yours by default.

And under the hood, the first layer of internal upgrades is in place. Quiet foundation work that makes the platform faster and easier to maintain over the long run.

We’re building this carefully and with purpose. 💜

The goal is simple: make Plebeian the most powerful, user-friendly sovereign commerce tool.

Check out our GitHub to learn more.

For Brick & Mortar Shops & Physical Businesses 💡

Seeing Bitcoin Bazar (a real storefront in Paris) successfully bring their merch to Plebeian got me thinking… If you run a physical shop whether it’s a Bitcoin café, a merch store, a farm shop… *cough cough Jeremy Clarkson… an art gallery, or anything else, Plebeian can be a powerful extension of your business. 🏪

Why it would makes sense:

• Reach Bitcoiners worldwide who actively want to support real businesses

• Accept sats directly (no extra payment processor fees or chargebacks)

• Keep full control. Your Nostr key, your rules, your customer relationships

• Turn foot traffic into global reach with very little extra work

You already did the hard part: running a real store.

We’d love to see more physical businesses join the marketplace. If you have a shop and want help getting started (or want to be featured), just reach out!

Your local store.
Your global stall.
Your rules.

Your Next Move: Head to plebeian.market

Tag a merchant, artist, or creator who should be here. Especially if they have a physical shop or cool products!

The old world keeps renting you space and taking cuts.
We’re building the alternative, one sovereign stall at a time.

Happy Easter weekend from the Plebeian team! 🐣🗲

While the old fiat world keeps spinning its cycles of control, fees, and gatekeeping, we’re quietly resurrecting something better: sovereign commerce - where creators and sellers truly own their stall, their rules, and their earnings.

This week’s theme: Your Stall, Your Rules.

Why NIP-99 Changes Everything in 2026

On legacy platforms, you’re a tenant. They set the rules, take their cut of 30-50%+, control your visibility, and can ban you overnight.

On Plebeian Market (and the broader Nostr ecosystem):

• Your Nostr key = your storefront (NIP-99)

• List once → own your listings forever

• Instant sats hit your wallet directly

• No one can freeze, censor, or deplatform your stall (FOSS)

• You decide the prices, policies, and audience

This is real ownership. This is how we build the Bitcoin renaissance; one sovereign stall at a time.

No permission needed. No middlemen skimming value.

Just pleb-to-pleb trade powered by sound money and open protocols. 🔥🔥

Featured Stalls Building Sovereignty

Check out these new and standout merchants living the “Your Stall, Your Rules” ethos:

Hermes: Off-grid living and electronics

Self-sovereignty isn’t just theory, it’s practical. Hermes brings tools, gear, and solutions for living free from the grid. Perfect for plebs stacking sats and independence. Browse More 🌄

CheshireRemnant: 3D Prints

Saf Store: Handmade Turkish Comfort

“Saf” means pure in Turkish. These natural cotton towels are hand-woven by some of the last remaining artisans in Anatolia. These are comfortable, long-lasting, and full of tradition. True artisan value, sold directly for sats. Discover the collection 🧣

Every new listing strengthens the parallel economy. Thank you to these builders. 🙏

Fresh from the Huddle 🛠

We’ve been quietly fixing and improving things behind the scenes this week.Recent updates include:

• Signer improvements: You can now have multiple npubs/accounts signed in across different tabs. Each tab will correctly post and sign events for its own npub (this should fix the cross-tab issues you were running into last week).

• Fullscreen bug: The signer no longer takes over the entire screen. This annoying interference has been resolved.

• Recent merged PR: A solid batch of bug fixes that cleaned up various user-facing issues, plus new end-to-end test coverage for collections.

More improvements are coming soon as we merge the waiting PRs. Thanks to everyone contributing!

The fiat machine keeps grinding, but the bazaar is quietly growing stronger 💪
More stalls are live on NIP99 and real plebs are proving you don’t need permission to sell what you make.

This week we’re putting the spotlight on makers and artists! The hands-on creators who are already doing the work. No drop-shipping. No middlemen. Just talent, time, and sats 🔥

Let’s dive!

Real people building real things on Bitcoin & Nostr. This week we celebrate three makers who turned their skills into sovereign income:

• New Artist Spotlight: PetraB_Art 🎨
  Petra Buzková is a Czech painter whose work explores memory, inner landscapes, and the subtle relationship between people and their environment. Her pieces (“Female and Male Ego” and “Lady with a Bat – From the Darkness of Consciousness”) are powerful, introspective works that reward close looking. Direct sats to the artist . No gallery gatekeepers, no 50% cuts. Pure sovereign art. See More

• zed-erwan 🎨
  Returning favorite with raw, gritty Bitcoin-ethos sketches. Clean lines, high-vibe, perfect for your node den or as a gift to a fellow pleb. Small-batch art from a quiet builder who’s been shipping on the platform. Discover More

• Nesthara – Hand Crochet & Amigurumi 🧶
  Super cute handmade crochet and amigurumi keychains from Nesthara. From the smiling Amigurumi Virgin and the adorable Cute Bear to the cuddly Pug Potato. Each piece is full of personality and charm. These are thoughtful, one-of-a-kind daily carries or gifts, crafted with care and paid directly in Bitcoin. See Them All

These aren’t faceless vendors. They’re plebs putting in the proof-of-work: creating, listing, and selling without asking for approval.

Proof of Work isn’t just mining.

It’s also the hours an artist spends painting, the crocheter spends hooking yarn, or the dev spends fixing state sync at 2am…

When you buy from these makers on Plebeian, you’re not just getting a product; you are rewarding real work and helping build the alternative economy.

The Bigger Picture

Decentralized markets aren’t a buzzword, it is the infrastructure for self-sovereign communities. A decentralized market means no single company controls who can sell, what they can sell, or how they get paid. The tools (NIP-99 listings, Nostr relays, Lightning zaps, FOSS software) let anyone run their own instance, set their own rules, and build the exact community they want. We are all pioneers again!

Just like early Bitcoiners who were figuring it out as they went, today’s plebs are building the commerce layer on top of Bitcoin and Nostr.It takes real proof of work:

• Artists learning to list and ship

• Makers experimenting with bundles

• Devs grinding on comments, carts, and auctions

• Buyers choosing to zap plebs instead of clicking “Buy Now” on Amazon

This is how we fuck the fiat system 🖕 not by yelling at it, but by quietly building a parallel one that actually works for normal people. Farmers, artists, homesteaders, handworkers… all of us doing our small part.

The more we support these makers, the stronger the circular economy becomes. Every sat spent here is a vote for a world where permission is optional and sovereignty is default 🤝

Thank you to every pleb who’s listing, buying, testing, tagging bugs, and believing in this wonderful experiment. We are still early… and that’s the exciting part!!

Now go do your part:

• List what you make

• Buy from fellow makers

• Pay in pure sats

• 🖕 the middlemen

• Build your own system

• Cashu wallet integration for private, fast auction payments in progress.

• Continuing to squash migration bugs & GitHub issues (keep tagging us on Nostr , super helpful, thanks community!).

Use Plebeian Signer (or Any NIP-07 Extension) – Never Paste nsec Again

Typing your nsec into any site is risky; clipboard hijacks, accidental leaks, bad actors. Use a NIP-07 signer extension instead. Why extensions beat raw nsec:

• Private key stays in your device/extension. Never touches the website

• Signs events locally (Nostr requests approval pop-up)

• Works everywhere: Plebeian.market, Amethyst, Primal, Coracle, etc.

• Safer than copy/paste nsec (no exposure risk)

How to use Plebeian Signer:

• Download from Chromestore or GitHub: https://github.com/PlebeianApp/plebeian-signer

• Install & import your nsec (or create a new one)

• Go to plebeian.market → click “Sign in with Nostr” → approve in Plebeian Signer

• It also has a built-in wallet for zaps!! Use it for quick, private payments

• Multi-account support: add multiple nsecs (e.g., one for main, one for shopping) and switch easily

Best practices:

• Use a fresh nsec for shopping if paranoid; keeps main identity ghost clean

• Never paste nsec into websites; clipboard malware loves that

Pro move: Dedicated “shopping” nsec + NIP-07 extension = max privacy + zero leak risk.

Why Plebeian Exists (And Why It Matters)

Centralized platforms are fiat parasites in disguise.

Banks freeze accounts… and so do governments. Galleries take 50% cuts. Apple takes 30%. Spotify keeps most royalties. Platforms decide who gets paid, when, and how much. We said no gfy.

Plebeian Market is built so farmers can sell their goods, artists can sell paintings, musicians can sell albums without begging for approval or handing over a cut to some corporation. NIP99 makes it real:

• Your stall lives on relays forever

• Zaps hit your wallet direct

• No KYC, no fees, no forced censorship; when you download the FOSS software and install the instance on your own server

• You own the customer relationship, not the platform

This isn’t just a marketplace. It’s an escape hatch from the fiat matrix. Every listing, every zap, every sale chips away at the old system.

We’re not here to compete with Amazon or Etsy.
We’re here to obsolete them.

Now go list your jams, art, coffee, code, whatever. Buy from plebs. Pay in pure sats. Fuck the middlemen. Own the trade.

Creator got paid instantly in sats, buyer got real food for their body. No fiat middleman, no credit card fees, no waiting 30–90 days for a payout. Shop now!

This is decentralized commerce working and it feels damn good.😎

Team’s updates:

• Auctions system is real — full demo watched, UI/UX coming together. Hoping to release soon (we all know testing phase can be a beast lol).

• Cashu wallet integration for private, fast auction payments in progress.

• Blossom image fixes (thumbnails, caching, rescaling for slow connections).

• Relay publishing & sync polish.

• Ongoing GitHub bug squashing + issues tagged on Nostr (keep tagging us it is super helpful, thanks community!).

• E2E testing docs and automation ramping up.

Hero call: keep ladybug-ing bugs and tagging us on Nostr/GitHub. Every ping makes the bazaar stronger.

This week we’re shining on three plebs doing it right: a Bitcoin memory game for stacking knowledge, a Bitcoin bookstore, and a wallet that flips off fiat.

No banks, no platforms, no permission slips! Just Bitcoin flowing direct from buyer to creator. That’s the Plebeian way: real people selling real things for real sats.

Let’s keep stacking proof that the marketplace works. List your games, books, wallets, whatever. Buy from plebs. Pay in pure Bitcoin.

These plebs are already stacking real sats with NIP-99: games that teach Bitcoin, books that orange-pill, wallets that roast fiat. Here’s who’s crushing it this week.

Bitcoin Memory Game

Classic memory match but with Bitcoin themes! Perfect for teaching kids (or adults) bitcoin and more while having fun. This makes a great gift or for family game night. Stack knowledge and stack memory. Shop the Game 🎴

The Bitcoin Shop UK Bookstore

Full online bookstore dedicated to Bitcoin books about education, history, economics, all paid in sats, obviously… No fiat checkout, just pure Bitcoin knowledge and stories. Browse the Books 📖

Filthy Fiat Wallet

Wallets that literally say “Filthy Fiat” a cheeky reminder to ditch the old system. Practical, bold, and 100% Bitcoin native. Perfect daily carry for the pleb who’s done with fiat forever. Shop the Wallets 💳

Team’s deep in the trenches:

• Auctions system + Cashu wallet integration (ecash for private, fast payments in auctions)

• Blossom image handling, thumbnail generation, caching fixes

• Relay publishing & sync improvements

• Bandwidth/rescaling work: lower-res previews for slow connections, full HD on demand

• Debugging migration bugs & GitHub issues

• E2E testing docs & automation in progress

More details ComingSoon™…

Centralized platforms are fiat prisons in disguise.

Banks freeze accounts… and so do governments… Galleries take 50% cuts. Apple takes 30%. Spotify keeps most royalties. Platforms decide who gets paid, when, and how much. We said no gfy.

Plebeian Market is built so farmers can sell their goods, artists can sell paintings, musicians can sell albums without begging for approval or handing over a cut to some corporation. NIP-99 makes it real:

• Your stall lives on relays forever

• Zaps hit your wallet direct

• No KYC, no fees, no forced censorship — when you download the FOSS software and install the instance on your own server

• You own the customer relationship, not the platform

This isn’t just a marketplace; it is the future. It’s an escape hatch from the fiat matrix.

We’re not here to compete with Amazon or Etsy. We’re here to obsolete them. 💥

Now go list your coffee, art, jams, code, whatever.

Fuck the middlemen 🤝 Own the trade.

This week we’re shining on two plebs doing it right: UTXO Coffee Roaster brewing sovereign beans and Plebeian OG isolabellart artist. No banks, no platforms, just Bitcoin flowing direct from fan to creator. That’s the Plebeian way: real people selling real things for real sats.

Farmers escape fiat banking hell. Artists skip gallery cuts. Everyone keeps what they earn. List your coffee, art, jams, whatever. Buy from plebs. Pay in Bitcoin.

• UTXO Coffee Roaster
  Fresh-roasted, Bitcoin-only coffee from a pleb who gets it. Perfect for your morning stack ritual. Grab a bag, brew strong, stay awake while the fiat world sleeps.

  

• isolabellart: Stunning Original Art
  Raw, evocative originals from isolabellart. These aren’t mass produced prints… they’re one of a kind, hand-crafted energy you can hang in your node cave or gift to a fellow hodler.

Team’s heads down on the post launch grind:

• Blossom image handling + thumbnail generation fixes

• Caching improvements so large/4K/HD images don’t choke slower connections

• Auto-rescaling for bandwidth mercy (lower res previews load fast, full quality on demand)

• Relay publishing & sync tweaks

• Debugging GitHub issues rolling in from real users

Hero call: keep ladybuging bugs and filing GitHub issues. Every report makes the bazaar stronger.

We did it🥳 First album sale just landed on Plebeian via NIP-99!🎶
One duo, one buyer, sats direct ⚡⚡No Apple cut, no Spotify royalty drip, no label middleman laughing all the way to the bank.

The artists said ‘F the system!’ listed P2P and sold direct! This isn’t hype. It’s happening!!

Musicians, artists, creators your fans are done feeding the gatekeepers. They want to pay you directly, own the track, and keep the middlemen starving.

Let’s keep the pressure on. List your albums, EPs, stems, merch, whatever you make. Sell for Bitcoin. Watch the centralized pigs squeal.

These are the creators already living the NIP-99 dream: direct fan payments, full sats in pocket, zero permission slips.
The marketplace is real and these stalls are proof.

Haleen – First Album Sale on Plebeian

• The proof is in the sats: first full album sold P2P via NIP-99. No 30% platform tax, no royalty trickle, no permission needed. Artist keeps every single sat.
  This is what decentralized commerce looks like—creators finally in control. More music drops incoming. Go support the next one. Zap the Album

Zed_erwan – Raw Sketch Art

• Hand-drawn Bitcoin-ethos sketches—clean, gritty, ready to hang in your node den or gift to a fellow pleb.
  Small-batch, high-vibe art from a quiet builder. Perfect sats-paid wall candy. Shop Sketches

Nostr Privacy: Stealthy Shopping in the Shadows

🤓Education time because sovereign shopping means keeping your HODLs under wraps. Let’s quick-dive Nostr’s privacy toolkit for marketplace magic. 🛡

Nostr’s built for stealth: Events are pseudonymous (no KYC), relays scatter data (no single honeypot), and zaps flow via Lightning (off-chain zaps). Use nsec keys for signing without revealing identity, or NIP-07 extensions for browser privacy.

Pro tip: Rotate relays and use Tor for extra layers. Why care? In a world of chain analysis, Nostr lets you shop the revolution without the spotlight.

Nostr Privacy Basics

Big shoutout this week to Bitcoin Art Magazine the world’s first Bitcoin art mag, dropping fire on the relays and beyond. Genesis Edition is a limited copies available packed with premium prints curated by plebs for plebs. Plus a killer podcast diving into Bitcoin culture.

If you’re into art that flips off fiat galleries, this is your jam.
Zap ‘em a follow and snag a copy while stock lasts. Community building one glossy page at a time.

More Art

Thank you to every pleb who endured the pivots, smashed staging, zapped feedback, and believed when it was all “ComingSoon™.” You built this with us.💖

Now go crush it: migrate your listings, drop your weird art/music/jams/sketches/merch, buy from plebs, pay in pure sats. Fuck the middlemen. Own the trade.

Week 2 post NIP-99 migration and stalls upgrading, zaps landing, feedback rolling in!! Real plebs building real Bitcoin freedom. 🚀

Now we’re in the grind phase: devs smashing bugs, polishing flows, and making sure every edge case gets ironed out. No shiny new features yet… but ComingSoonTM…

Your reports from Telegram and Github are the fuel. This is open-source, pleb-powered tech. We build it together. You spot it, we fix it, we all win harder.

Let’s keep the momentum rolling.🚀🚀

The team is heads down on the post launch issues. Priority right now:

• V4V splits & invoicing bugs (a few edge cases popping in Telegram—thanks to everyone reporting)

• Checkout flow smoothness

• General polish for that clean, sovereign experience

Expect the bulk done in the next couple weeks. Your feedback is gold. This is open-source freedom tech built by plebs, for plebs.

If something’s off, jump into Telegram, open a Github issue, or tag us on Nostr/X.

Bonus: Devs are drafting proper dev docs for clear flow explanations, contribution guides, architecture notes. Makes it way easier for anyone to fork, contribute, or run their own instance. Parallel Bitcoin societies? That’s the goal. Open source forever. Fork it. Build on it. Own it. 👨‍💻

Featured Shops & Drops: Fresh Migrators & Legends

These plebs are live on NIP-99, upgrading hard, and turning Bitcoin into real merch and art. Zap ‘em, buy from ‘em, keep the circular economy spinning:

• Nostress stall loaded up with Nostr & Bitcoin focused apparel: holy-B-hodler tees, BTC Mountain Runner shirts, nostr mugs, and even a BTC jigsaw puzzle. Clean designs, forest vibes, freedom messages. 🧩

Cross-Post Your Listings to Nostr : Double Down on Reach

Your NIP-99 products aren’t locked to plebeian.market anymore; they’re live on every client that follows the standard. Maximize it:

• After publishing/editing on Plebeian, grab the event link or npub from the product page from the “share” icon (or copy the raw NIP-99 event ID).

• Paste it into Primal, Amethyst, Coracle, or any Nostr client as a note or reply.

• Add a quick caption: “Fresh drop on Plebeian Market – zap & grab!”

Boom 💥 your stall shows up in more feeds, more eyes see it, more zaps land.

Pro move: Tag @ PlebeianMarket or use #PlebeianMarket when you cross-post! Who’s already blasting their listings across Nostr?

We’re not building another centralized shop. We’re building tools for plebs to create independent economies, neighborhood co-ops, online Bitcoin circles, local makers, global artists. Every migrated stall, every zap, every bug fix pushes sats into the hands that matter. No banks. No gatekeepers. Just open protocol and open source.

Start Selling

The future is orange. The future is pleb-built. Migrate your stall. List your goods. Report bugs. Contribute code. Zap your favorites. We’re not staying humble, we’re winning!

One week deep into the full NIP99 relaunch on plebeian.market and the vibes are electric!⚡

Migration tool humming with a couple bumps, stalls upgrading, pure P2P freedom without the fiat chains. No banks, no middlemen, no suppression of small creators. Just plebs building real Bitcoin economies.🌎

Quick Tips - Don’t Let Shipping Block Your Sales! 🛒

Quick heads-up for migrated shops: Many NIP15 → NIP99 products are live and looking sharp, but buyers can’t complete checkout without a shipping option attached. No shipping = cart abandonment = lost sales. 💌

Fix it fast in your Dashboard:

• Head to Products > Shipping Options

• Click + Add Shipping Option (or use a template from the dropdown, like “Local Pickup”, “Digital Delivery” etc.)

• Fill in information, pick Service Type, set price/delivery details.

• Save. Once created, these options auto appear for new products you list or edit.

Pro move: Set up 2-3 general templates now and they apply site-wide. Migrated products won’t inherit old shipping, so go through your stall and assign the shipping options.

Do this today cuz your listings deserve to stack real sats, not sit in “view only” mode. 👁👁

Questions? Hit Telegram or tag us on Nostr. Let’s get every shop checkout ready!

V4V Splits (Optional):

Want to support ongoing dev? Set your value-for-value split in Dashboard > Circular Economy. Not mandatory, 100% of your sats stays yours if you want. Pure opt-in freedom to fund the code/tech that keeps this sovereign.

P2P Decentralized Marketplaces Are the Future 😎

Big corps suppress creators with fees, rules, and censorship. NIP99 flips the script: open, interoperable, Bitcoin-powered markets where anyone sells anything (legal limits apply) art, merch, services, even real estate. No gatekeepers. Plebs trade direct, economies grow local and global. We’re not just shopping; we’re dismantling the fiat commerce one listing at a time.

BitFest was a great time, staging is bleeding bugs, and we’re finally flipping the NIP-99 switch.🥳

BitFest Recap

BitFest was an absolute lovefest. Nothing beats hanging out with a room full of psychopaths who actually believe we’re building the future on Nostr & Bitcoin.

From some serious “oh ya I emailed with Satoshi” OGs to Nostr PV god Derek Ross to our own Plebeian royalty Yojimble (aka Jimble Jumble) who set up the cutest farmer’s market stall in the art hall—jams, marmalades, chutney, tallow. Peak P2P 🤝

Chiefmonkey got up and told our whole chaotic story:
Pivot or perish—that’s been Plebeian Market for three straight years. First version → Auctions → Lightning login → WordPress plugin → Nostr → and now the FINAL 🤞 pivot to NIP-99.

Many of you have been riding shotgun since day one, cheering, breaking staging…or production :| and roasting us when we deserved it. We love you. Seriously. Thank you for sticking with the chaos. 🫂💜🧡

But as you can guess this will not be the final-final version of Plebeian Market… Auctions will be the next *yuge* feature we’ll add …soon-ish.

Why NIP-99 Makes Buyers & Sellers Happy

In short: faster shopping, fatter earnings, less junk.

Dev Update – Relaunch Is Days Away

The dev team is in full crunch mode. Messaging fixed. Shipping fixed. Ladybugs are crying lol. We flip the switch next week (unless major issues arise).

Next week I’ll drop a dead-simple how-to video. Plus a migration tool the devs built that moves your current NIP-15 listings to NIP-99 with a few clicks.

Shop owners: you’ll just have to hit “publish” again and tweak a couple fields like shipping options. Takes a few minutes, then your stall is future-proof forever.

This Week’s Feature Products

Bitcoin Trading Cards – Factory-Sealed Deck

Tigs just dropped an unopened deck. These aren’t just cardboard—they’re Bitcoin culture in physical form. Series 1 & 2 are already collector cult classics: holographic foils, serialized parallels, Warriors vs. Villains lore, rare chase cards people hunt like Pokémon on steroids. 10k+ strong community trading, grading (PSA slabs exist), and flexing binders on Nostr. Rip it with the boys or seal it forever—your call. Crack or Hodl 🎴

Oak and Chain – Proof of Wood

New artisan in the marketplace! Hand-built driftwood mirrors that look like they survived a shipwreck and came out richer and wooden-cover notebooks that smell like forest and freedom. Real proof-of-work (and proof-of-wood). If your walls or desk need sovereign swagger, this is it. Shop the Stall 🪵

VCA Vintage Gold Necklace w/ Giant Swarovski Crystal

Heavy gold + massive crystal drop. Quiet luxury that says “I bought this with Lightning, cope.” Bling in Sats 💎

Final Love Bomb

To everyone who’s been here through every pivot, every meltdown, every staging smash, thank you.💜🧡
We’re so damn excited to finally ship this thing and watch plebs start slinging goods, art, jams, wood, and weird vintage bling for Bitcoin again. Plebeian is about to get loud. Got ideas or feedback? Hit us up on Nostr or Telegram!
