NIP-63
======
Relay-based Paywalls
--------------------
`draft` `optional`
This NIP specifies how relays can support _paywalled content_. Well, "paywall" is a misnomer as this NIP doesn't imply payment necessarily, it's agnostic about that, so better call it **premium content**.
The idea is that a _content-creator_ should be able to manage a list of _premium-reader_ who have access to their premium content, then choose some specific relays to publish their content based on their known support for this NIP.
Relays that support this NIP (as they could indicate in their [NIP-11](11.md) responses) should receive the list of users and use it together with [NIP-42](42.md) authentication in order to decide what content will be readable by each requester.
### Premium event
Any event can be premium, all it needs is a [NIP-70](70.md) `["-"]` tag and another tag `["nip63"]` that clearly indicates its situation.
Because normal relays won't care about these tags it's enough for the _content-creator_ to release the event to these relays in order to make it "public" to everybody.
### Membership Event
Membership events must be sent directly to the relays that will implement the paywall. By default relays should not serve these events to anyone, only to the _content-creator_ directly. Because of this, these lists can be kept reasonably private as long as the _content-creator_ is discrete in their publishing, but can also be made public by being published to other relays.
The lists are constituted of one event for each _premium-reader_, and their removal/update must be done with a [NIP-09](09.md) deletion request.
```yaml
{
"kind": 1163,
"pubkey": "<content-creator>",
"tags": [
["p", "<premium-reader>"]
],
// ...other fields
}
```
### Relay behavior
A relay that implements this NIP should:
- signal `63` in its `supported_nips` NIP-11 field;
- accept `kind:1163` events and not serve them to anyone except to their creator;
- accept deletion requests for such events;
- accept premium events containing `["-"]` and `["nip63"]` tags only from their creator;
- only serve the premium events to users that have a matching `kind:1163`;
- serve an `AUTH` challenge to any client opening a connection immediately.
### Client behavior
A client doesn't have to do much in order to access premium content: if a client is already very liberal with its authentication policies it will automatically perform NIP-42 AUTH whenever it connects to the relay; otherwise it may want to check if such relay supports `63` before deciding.
After that, any `REQ`s should include premium content automatically and transparently. This means that while constructiing a normal "following" feed a client will get the premium content automatically and place it in front of the user.
A client may decide to display these events differently if they have the `["nip63"]` tag.
### Announcement
Optionally a _content-creator_ can announce that they have premium content available by publishing an event:
```
{
"kind": 10163,
"content": "<something about the premium content, the price and other stuff, optionally>",
"tags": [
["url", "<payment-page-url>"]
]
}
```
Where `<payment-page-url>` is a normal webpage that may have anything in it. From there on, payments are handled off-protocol. The entity that handled the payment is expected to somehow modify the list of _premium-readers_ or enable the user to modify it later.
#### Zap relationship
This NIP is payment agnostic, but that doesn't mean one shouldn't use zaps or nutzaps for this. Clients or third-party services may offer a feature to read all zaps, compute their sums according to any criteria and use that information to modify the list of _premium-readers_.
### Future additions
- more private list membership: perhaps doing an HMAC with the public key of the reader and a key that is shared with the relays will be enough for this.
- tiered membership: custom tiers for fine-grained content access control can be added by adding more tags to the `kind:1163` event and more items to the `["nip63"]` tag.
- teaser events: perhaps a `["nip63", "teaser"]` special tag could cause an event to be displayed only to those that do not have access to its premium counterpart, this would also be managed by the relay.
- relays for premium content different from the outbox relays?

NIP-BE
======
Nostr BLE Communications Protocol
---------------------------------
`draft` `optional`
This NIP specifies how Nostr apps can use BLE to communicate and synchronize with each other. The BLE protocol follows a client-server pattern, so this NIP emulates the WS structure in a similar way, but with some adaptations to its limitations.
## Device advertisement
A device advertises itself with:
- Service UUID: `0000180f-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb`
- Data: Device UUID in ByteArray format
## GATT service
The device exposes a Nordic UART Service with the following characteristics:
1. Write Characteristic
- UUID: `87654321-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb`
- Properties: Write
2. Read Characteristic
- UUID: `12345678-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb`
- Properties: Notify, Read
## Role assignment
When one device initially finds another advertising the service, it will read the service's data to get the device UUID and compare it with its own advertised device UUID. For this communication, the device with the highest ID will take the role of GATT Server (Relay), the other will be considered the GATT Client (Client) and will proceed to establish the connection.
For devices whose purpose will require a single role, its device UUID will always be:
- GATT Server: `FFFFFFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF`
- GATT Client: `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000`
## Messages
All messages will follow [NIP-01](/01.md) message structure. For a given message, a compression stream (DEFLATE) is applied to the message to generate a byte array. Depending on the BLE version, the byte array can be too large for a single message (20-23 bytes in BLE 4.2, 256 bytes in BLE > 4.2). In that case, this byte array is split into any number of batches following the structure:
```
[batch index (first 2 bytes)][batch n][is last batch (last byte)]
```
After reception of all batches, the other device can then join them and decompress. To ensure reliability, only 1 message will be read/written at a time. MTU can be negotiated in advance. The maximum size for a message is 64KB; bigger messages will be rejected.
## Examples
This example implements a function to split and compress a byte array into chunks, as well as another function to join and decompress them in order to obtain the initial result:
```kotlin
fun splitInChunks(message: ByteArray): Array<ByteArray> {
val chunkSize = 500 // define the chunk size
var byteArray = compressByteArray(message)
val numChunks = (byteArray.size + chunkSize - 1) / chunkSize // calculate the number of chunks
var chunkIndex = 0
val chunks = Array(numChunks) { ByteArray(0) }
for (i in 0 until numChunks) {
val start = i * chunkSize
val end = minOf((i + 1) * chunkSize, byteArray.size)
val chunk = byteArray.copyOfRange(start, end)
// add chunk index to the first 2 bytes and last chunk flag to the last byte
val chunkWithIndex = ByteArray(chunk.size + 2)
chunkWithIndex[0] = chunkIndex.toByte() // chunk index
chunk.copyInto(chunkWithIndex, 1)
chunkWithIndex[chunkWithIndex.size - 1] = numChunks.toByte()
// store the chunk in the array
chunks[i] = chunkWithIndex
chunkIndex++
}
return chunks
}
fun joinChunks(chunks: Array<ByteArray>): ByteArray {
val sortedChunks = chunks.sortedBy { it[0] }
var reassembledByteArray = ByteArray(0)
for (chunk in sortedChunks) {
val chunkData = chunk.copyOfRange(1, chunk.size - 1)
reassembledByteArray = reassembledByteArray.copyOf(reassembledByteArray.size + chunkData.size)
chunkData.copyInto(reassembledByteArray, reassembledByteArray.size - chunkData.size)
}
return decompressByteArray(reassembledByteArray)
}
```
## Workflows
### Client to relay
- Any message the client wants to send to a relay will be a write message.
- Any message the client receives from a relay will be a read message.
### Relay to client
The relay should notify the client about any new event matching subscription's filters by using the Notify action of the Read Characteristic. After that, the client can proceed to read messages from the relay.
### Device synchronization
Given the nature of BLE, it is expected that the direct connection between two devices might be extremely intermittent, with gaps of hours or even days. That's why it's crucial to define a synchronization process by following [NIP-77](./77.md) but with an adaptation to the limitations of the technology.
After two devices have successfully connected and established the Client-Server roles, the devices will use half-duplex communication to intermittently send and receive messages.
#### Half-duplex synchronization
Right after the 2 devices connect, the Client starts the workflow by sending the first message.
1. Client - Writes ["NEG-OPEN"](/77.md#initial-message-client-to-relay) message.
2. Server - Sends `write-success`.
3. Client - Sends `read-message`.
4. Server - Responds with ["NEG-MSG"](./77.md#subsequent-messages-bidirectional) message.
5. Client -
1. If the Client has messages missing on the Server, it writes one `EVENT`.
2. If the Client doesn't have any messages missing on the Server, it writes `EOSE`. In this case, subsequent messages to the Server will be empty while the Server claims to have more notes for the Client.
6. Server - Sends `write-success`.
7. Client - Sends `read-message`.
8. Server -
1. If the Server has messages missing on the Client, it responds with one `EVENT`.
2. If the Client doesn't have any messages missing on the Server, it responds with `EOSE`. In this case, subsequent responses to the Client will be empty.
9. If the Client detects that the devices are not synchronized yet, jump to step 5.
10. After the two devices detect that there are no more missing events on both ends, the workflow will pause at this point.
#### Half-duplex event spread
While two devices are connected and synchronized, it might happen that one of them receives a new message from another connected peer. Devices MUST keep track of which notes have been sent to its peers while they are connected. If the newly received event is detected as missing in one of the connected and synchronized peers:
1. If the peer is a Server:
1. Client - It writes the `EVENT`.
2. Server - Sends `write-success`.
2. If the peer is a Client:
1. Server - It will send an empty notification to the Client.
2. Client - Sends `read-message`.
3. Server - Responds with the `EVENT`.
