Creating a new sell order

To create a new sell order the user should send a Gift wrap Nostr event to Mostro, the rumor event should have the following rumor's content:

{
  "order": {
    "version": 1,
    "action": "new-order",
    "content": {
      "order": {
        "kind": "sell",
        "status": "pending",
        "amount": 0,
        "fiat_code": "VES",
        "min_amount": null,
        "max_amount": null,
        "fiat_amount": 100,
        "payment_method": "face to face",
        "premium": 1,
        "created_at": 0
      }
    }
  }
}

Let's explain some of the fields:

  • kind: sell or buy
  • status: Is always pending when creating a new order
  • amount: 0 for when we want to sell with at market price, otherwise the amount in satoshis
  • created_at: No need to send the correct unix timestamp, Mostro will replace it with the current time

The event to send to Mostro would look like this:

{
  "id": "cade205b849a872d74ba4d2a978135dbc05b4e5f483bb4403c42627dfd24f67d",
  "kind": 1059,
  "pubkey": "1f5bb148a25bca31506594722e746b10acf2641a12725b12072dcbc46ade544d", // Seller's ephemeral pubkey
  "content": "sealed-rumor-content",
  "tags": [
    ["p", "dbe0b1be7aafd3cfba92d7463edbd4e33b2969f61bd554d37ac56f032e13355a"] // Mostro's pubkey
  ],
  "created_at": 1234567890,
  "sig": "a21eb195fe418613aa9a3a8a78039b090e50dc3f9fb06b0f3fe41c63221adc073a9317a1f28d9db843a43c28d860ba173b70132ca85b0e706f6487d43a57ee82"
}

Confirmation message

Mostro will send back a nip59 event as a confirmation message to the user like the following (unencrypted rumor's content example):

{
  "order": {
    "version": 1,
    "id": "ede61c96-4c13-4519-bf3a-dcf7f1e9d842",
    "action": "new-order",
    "content": {
      "order": {
        "id": "ede61c96-4c13-4519-bf3a-dcf7f1e9d842",
        "kind": "sell",
        "status": "pending",
        "amount": 0,
        "fiat_code": "VES",
        "fiat_amount": 100,
        "payment_method": "face to face",
        "premium": 1,
        "created_at": 1698870173
      }
    }
  }
}

Mostro publishes this order as an event kind 38383 with status pending:
