Mostro Web

Super early version of a web client for the Mostro P2P System.

This project is a web interface that facilitates peer-to-peer bitcoin trading over the lightning network ⚡️ using nostr 🦩. The lightning network is a layer 2 scaling solution for bitcoin that enables fast and low-cost transactions.

RELAYS=<comma-separated-list-of-relay-urls>
