The machine payable web, minus the theory powered by 402 payments and Jev. Type one sentence, get a widget, and the widget pays for its own images and speech as it uses them. Funny #bitcoin apps are welcome.

The last KYB wall for agent commerce is gone. Agents could already BUY over L402. Now they can SELL: no Strike or OpenNode account required to receive. Any NIP-47 wallet is the settlement layer. Alby Hub, CoinOS, your own node.

NWC keeps getting more interconnected. Great to see the ecosystem continue to grow.
NWC interoperability layer is growing so big it's getting harder and harder to fit everything in one ecosystem map 😅 In version 1.9 we have 9 additions, let's take a look! 🧵

Oh, Roland is hacking on something new again 👀 Let him know if you'd be interested in playing.
I'm building a game that teaches you to become an agentic engineer. No boring courses. Would you play? 🔊 SOUND ON

I’m honoured to speak at the Sovereignty Summit next year on behalf of @getAlby If you’ve ever wanted to visit New Zealand this is the perfect time - a bitcoin and AI conference at the peak of one of the most beautiful places on earth!
Speaker Announcement: Roland Bewick What happens when AI agents can pay, transact and act autonomously using Bitcoin? We’re excited to welcome Roland Bewick to Sovereignty Summit 2027. Roland is a builder at Alby and the development lead for Alby Hub, Alby’s self-custodial, next-generation Lightning wallet. His work also spans developer SDKs and agent-first tools for the Bitcoin Lightning Network. A two-time BOLT FUN Lightning hackathon winner, Roland has worked on projects including Bitcoin Connect and Lightsats, and was the first in the world to create an OpenClaw that could autonomously spawn a child agent by paying for services with Bitcoin. His work sits right at the intersection of Bitcoin, Lightning, AI and sovereign computing, exploring what becomes possible when digital agents can interact with open monetary networks without relying on traditional payment rails. At Sovereignty Summit, Roland will bring a builder’s perspective to the Technology & Innovation pillar, exploring where Lightning, self-custody and agent-first technology are heading next. 📍 Coronet Peak, Queenstown, New Zealand 🗓️ 2–3 April 2027 Tickets: sovereigntysummit.nz/tickets Connect with Roland: X: @rolznz GitHub: github.com/rolznz Nostr: npub1zk6u7mxlflguqteghn8q7xtu47hyerruv6379c36l8lxzzr4x90q0gl6ef Alby: X: @getalby GitHub: github.com/getAlby Nostr: npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm @thebitcoinbasin

The rails shouldn’t matter to you. That’s what we’re building with TaskFuel: making it easy for you and your agents to pay across different payment protocols while abstracting away the complexity underneath. And we still believe Bitcoin + Lightning have a strong role to play as the long-term payment rails for AI. ⚡️
.@getAlby is making it easier for agents to pay across different protocols without developers having to think about the rails underneath @MaxAWebster on @TaskFuelAI, agentic payments, and why he still thinks bitcoin + Lightning are the long-term rails for AI: Timestamps 0:00 - How agents will pay for things 01:05 - Bitcoin, Lightning, and neutral AI rails 01:59 - The OpenRouter of agent payments 08:34 - The next 1Password for AI

If your wallet has to call some API, you are trusting a third party. What still work rock-solid are my own nodes: @getAlby and @Core_LN 💪

We're building something big and robust for merchants that relies on receive-only NWC codes. Our research suggests that currently only Alby and Rizful support making receive-only NWC codes. Can anyone suggest other NWC-capable wallets which easily allow a user to generate a receive-only code?

This video includes: -setting up your @umbrel Bitcoin node -connecting @SparrowWallet and @BULLBITCOIN_ as examples -running @mempool -using "amiexposed" to check your onchain privacy -setting up a @lightning node using @getAlby + connecting to mobile.
Your Bitcoin wallet can leak your IP/physical location while linking it to your balance/transactions. Here's how to fix that running your own node on @umbrel. PLUS some other great apps to level up your BTC game. New @SOVsessions tutorial 👇 piped.video/aGw1yp1IJlA

Paid HTTP-402 endpoints grew ~7× between February and June 2026. 62,079 net new paid endpoints. 1,724 providers. A payment layer for agents is getting built in public. We are tracking the numbers 🧵

Takeaway: none of the three looks likely to displace the others soon. The provider picks the rail, not your agent. So either your agent's wallet supports all of them — or you point at a gateway. That's why we built l402.space 👇
