We built the Lightning-Nostr stack
so you can build the next big thing.

Monetize video, run shared nodes, ship apps, sell data — one self-hosted stack, live in minutes, yours to control.

As seen in

The internet's
incentive model

Today's web trades attention for ads, permission for convenience, and reach for a 30% cut. Satoshi imagined something different: paying a website as easily as dropping coins in a vending machine. That vision was never realized — until now.

01

Empower
your Network

Run a node that serves multiple users or apps without duct-tape. Lightning.Pub makes your node a shared, permissioned service — effortlessly over Nostr.

02

Own
your Stack

Other turn-key Lightning services control your keys and introduce counter-party risk. The SHOCK.network suite of tools give you the levers to take full control of your node, your keys, your revenue. Always.

03

Grow
your margins

Most of today's content platforms extract 15–45% from every creator. Lightning micropayments let you earn directly, at any price point, from anyone in the world. No intermediaries needed.

Built for every vertical.

From individuals to institutions — SHOCK.network's open stack powers real-world Lightning use cases across every industry.

Academic

Pay-per-read access to papers and datasets — a paywall that bypasses slow institutional subscription bureaucracy and democratizes who can access research.

Organizations

Program incentives in sats and delegate signing roles across your team — granular permissions without shared passwords or irrevocable signing authority.

Communities

Fundraise for shared goals, split costs among members, and pool resources — community-run finances without a platform holding the purse.

Retail / Merch

Accept bitcoin at the register or online with instant finality, no chargebacks, and no card processor fees.

Industrial

Machine-to-machine payments across organizations — suppliers, manufacturers, and logistics settle with each other directly, without clearing houses or billing intermediaries.

AI / LLM

Premium tool-use paid by the call — meter inference, agents, and model endpoints per request, no API keys or monthly invoices.

Defense

Least-privilege access scoped per user, per system, per operation — grant and revoke authority at the granularity your mission requires.

Data Monetization

Price data feeds and sell access application-to-application — permission travels with the payment, enforced in-band with no separate access broker.

...there are so many applications if you could effortlessly pay a few cents to a website as easily as dropping coins in a vending machine.

One ecosystem.
Infinite Possibilities

Each product solves a specific problem. Together they form the only fully integrated stack for Lightning-native applications built on Nostr.

LightningInfrastructure

The Nostr-native node management protocol. Connect wallets, apps, and multiple users to a single Lightning node with role-based permissions and granular access control. The backbone of the entire Shock ecosystem.

LightningWallet

A first-class, cross-platform Lightning wallet powered by Lightning.Pub. Sync across all your devices, share your node with family, and use powerful Nostr static offers with line-of-business features.

LightningContentService

A Bitcoin-native video platform that puts monetization back in creators' hands. Paywall clips, stream live, or accept micropayment zaps — your audience pays you directly, per view, per download, per minute.

BetaNostrIdentity

Remote-signing bridges that connect external auth methods to Nostr keys. Role-based delegation means every team member holds their own credentials — no more sharing node passwords or full signing authority.

NostrContent

A first-party Nostr client deeply integrated with Lightning.Pub, ShockWallet, and the full Shock stack. Zap, follow, and publish with your node-backed identity — social and payments unified in one place.

TrustNostrService

Decentralised Web-of-Trust (WoT) Nostr namespace that uses a reputation-based system to determine who "occupies" a name. Sovereign identity without central registration or authority.

ComputingService

Ephemeral, Lightning-paid virtual private servers provisioned in seconds. Deploy a node, run a script, or host an app — pay only for what you use, settled in sats, with no KYC, no monthly commitment, and no vendor lock-in.

Built for builders

Whether you're routing sats, shipping apps, creating content, or selling data — SHOCK.network has a solution for your use case.

Node operators

Your node is a business. Start running it like one.

Lightning.Pub turns a Lightning node into a multi-tenant service. Host wallets for your community, set fee policies, and earn revenue while maintaing self-custody.

Developers

Skip the Infrastructure. Ship the app.

Integrate Lightning payments with the CLINK SDK in one prompt — connect to any Lightning.Pub node as your backend without complex infrastructure in the middle.

Creators

Earn sats from every view. Keep every sat.

Lightning.Video lets you charge what your content is worth — per clip, per stream, per zap. Your fans pay you directly over Lightning. No algorithm, no advertiser, no hidden fee.

AI & Data

Your data. Your price. Paid by the request.

DVMs let AI developers purchase access to your datasets with cryptographic micropayments. Granular pricing per token, per subscription, and signature based verification.
