WalkthroughThe PR adds a Rust Mostro exchange-rate API with node-scoped caching, a Flutter provider, fiat-to-sats conversion utilities, and market-price order validation. The order screen shows localized fiat range warnings and fails open when validation data is unavailable. ChangesMarket-price validation
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This change uses node-published pricing to decide whether market-price orders can be submitted. The current implementation does not explicitly authenticate the received pricing event before trusting it, and cache transitions can produce stale or unavailable validation data; malformed numeric input can also trigger validation failures. These risks should be addressed before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Validate the fiat amount serialized onto the wire
For decimal inputs, this computes sats from the original double, but new_order converts fixed and range fiat amounts to i64 in rust/src/mostro/actions.rs:48-50 before the daemon receives them. For example, with a 30,000 rate and a 3,334-sat minimum, 1.1 is accepted here as 3,666 sats but is transmitted as 1, which the daemon prices at 3,333 sats and rejects. Perform this protocol conversion and validation in Rust, or normalize the fiat value exactly as the wire path does before comparing it.

Reject non-finite fiat values before converting to sats
Because the amount fields have no input formatter, pasted values such as Infinity or 1e309 parse successfully and pass the positive-value check; calling truncate() on the resulting infinity then throws while the order screen is building. A sufficiently large finite amount can also overflow during multiplication and hit the same path. Check fiat.isFinite and the conversion result before truncating so malformed input makes the form invalid rather than crashing the screen.

According to the Dart SDK documentation, do double.tryParse('Infinity')anddouble.tryParse('NaN')return non-finite doubles, and dotruncate()orceil() throw for those values?
💡 Result:
Yes, according to the Dart SDK documentation, double.tryParse('Infinity') and double.tryParse('NaN') return the respective non-finite double values (Infinity and NaN) [1][2]. Both truncate and ceil throw an UnsupportedError if called on a non-finite double, such as NaN or Infinity [3][4][5]. This is because these methods are designed to return an integer representation, which is not defined for non-finite values [3][4][5]. Conversely, methods like truncateToDouble and ceilToDouble do not throw for non-finite values and instead return the value unmodified [5][6].

Reject non-finite amounts and rates.
Infinity and NaN pass the positivity checks in fiatOutOfNodeRange and _checkValid. They can reach truncate() or ceil(), which throw during rebuild or submission validation. Reject non-finite values before conversion and in _checkValid. Add regression tests for Infinity, -Infinity, and NaN.

🌐 Web query:
For nostr-sdk 0.44.0, does Client::fetch_events verify each received Event ID and Schnorr signature before returning Events, or must callers invoke Event::verify?
💡 Result:
In nostr-sdk 0.44.0, Client::fetch_events does not inherently guarantee that every received Event has been cryptographically verified before it is returned to the caller [1]. Specifically, versions of nostr-sdk up to 0.44.7 (including 0.44.0) have been identified as vulnerable to improper verification issues [1]. In these versions, the library's internal relay pool and processing mechanisms have been found to pass received events through various stages—such as policy evaluation or database insertion—before confirming the validity of their Event ID and Schnorr signature [1]. Furthermore, reliance on verification caches in these versions could allow forged events to bypass signature validation entirely if the event ID was already present in the cache, or due to cache key collisions [2][1]. Because the library does not consistently perform mandatory, unbypassable signature verification upon receipt for all event paths in version 0.44.0, it is considered best practice for callers to explicitly invoke Event::verify on any event received from an untrusted source before processing or trusting its content [2][1][3]. The Event::verify method is provided by the underlying nostr types to check the cryptographic integrity of the event [3]. Security advisories note that this vulnerability was addressed in later versions (starting with 0.44.8), which ensure that verification is performed before any further processing (such as policy evaluation or database lookups) and that the verification cache is handled securely [1]. Upgrading to at least version 0.44.8 is the recommended way to resolve this issue [1].

Verify each rate event before caching it.
The lockfile uses nostr-sdk 0.44.1, whose fetch_events path does not guarantee event ID and signature verification. The field checks do not authenticate the event. Call Event::verify() before rates::store, and add a forged-event regression test.

Problem
PR #302 checked fixed-sats amounts against the node's
min_order_amount/max_order_amount. Market-price orders stayed unchecked: they carry no sats amount, so nothing on this side could tell whether the daemon would price them inside the range — the user submitted and gotOutOfRangeSatsAmountafter the fact. The blocker was that the check needs a fiat↔sats rate, and this app had no rate source at all.Fix
Read the rate the Mostro node itself publishes (kind 30078, NIP-33,
dtagmostro-rates) and use it to check the fiat amount before submitting.Rust — the rate source (
mostro/rates.rs,api::nostr::fetch_exchange_rate):fetch_mostro_instance_tags, re-verifying kind, author and d-tag on whatever the relay returns.expirationtag, so a relay that ignores NIP-40 cannot serve a zombie price.powandescrow_mode— bounded by the event's own expiration and clamped to one hour, so a range order's amount fields cost a single relay query.Dart — the check (
shared/utils/order_amount_limits.dart,add_order_screen.dart):marketAmountsOutOfNodeRange(...)takes every amount the daemon will price — both ends for a range order — disables submit, and shows an inline message naming the accepted range, with the usual defence-in-depth re-check in_submit.publish_to_nostr), so blocking would make market-price orders unusable against every node that leaves it off. Written intocontracts/orders.md.Decisions taken from the daemon, not from v1
Verified against
MostroP2P/mostrowhile implementing; v1 differs on the first point:(fiat_amount / price * 1E8) as i64(src/app/order.rs). v1 rounds, which can accept an amount one sat below the node's floor and still see it rejected — the exact surprise this check exists to remove.amount_vecand rejects the order if any one of them is out of range.min_order_amounttag is the very value the check compares against (src/nip33.rspublishesmostro_settings.min_payment_amount), and the published rate comes from the same aggregate asget_bitcoin_price— so this reproduces the node's own arithmetic rather than approximating it.Scope
