PANews reported on May 23 that CKB community member Retric proposed the Nostr Binding Protocol. Nostr, as an information distribution protocol, has characteristics suitable for large-scale adoption in consumer applications. The Nostr Binding Protocol aims to create a one-to-one mapping relationship between Nostr events and CKB cells. Ordinary users can create and distribute native assets on the Nostr social network based on this protocol and achieve control of these assets through Bitcoin addresses via RGB++.

This protocol provides client developers with a new development paradigm, different from the Ethereum dApp model, which is divided into off-chain servers and on-chain smart contracts. The Nostr Binding Protocol uses a consistent system with different data levels to build dApps. In the future, the Nostr Binding Protocol is expected to seamlessly integrate into the CKB Lightning Network, addressing native payment issues in social networks. The CKB Ecosystem Foundation will promote the implementation of consumer-grade applications based on the Nostr Binding Protocol within the Bitcoin ecosystem.
