Introducing Paygress: Permissionless Cloud Compute ⚡
Spinning up a VM today usually means:
hand over your ID, add a credit card, and trust some company that logs everything
Paygress flips that.
A decentralized compute marketplace built on Nostr + Cashu.
No accounts. No KYC.
How it works:
→ Providers advertise compute on Nostr relays
→ You discover and request a VM — all communication flows through Nostr
→ Cashu tokens settle instantly, carry zero identity
→ No central server sits in between
Have a Linux box collecting dust? One command turns it into a provider LXC or Proxmox backend. Workloads are isolated. Expired ones get cleaned up automatically.
Everything happens over Nostr
Paygress can be used to run:
- Nostr relays
- CI pipeline
- OpenClaw
- anything you’d normally throw on a VM.
Permissionless infrastructure for a permissionless internet.
