People often wrongly assume that on nostr, all the relays must store all the data. This would inevitably lead to centralization. Thankfully, nostr is built different, as @fiatjaf explains in BR080.

What is Nostr's topology? Imagine it like a bunch of websites (relays) serving different content. You connect to specific relays for the content you want, like an open market of data exchange. @DETERMINISTIC OPTIMISM 🌞 and @fiatjaf explain how nostr's topology results in its decentralization, in BR080.

BR080: Nostr Rising 03 - Relays & Scaling ft. Fiatjaf, Mike Dilger & Pablo

I’m joined by guests Fiatjaf, Mike Dilger & Pablo to discuss relays and scaling nostr.

The panelists discuss the all-too-common question: "Who's going to run the relays?!" 👇

Server fatigue is real. On platforms like Mastodon, admins sometimes just delete servers, wiping out whole communities @Alex Gleason explains how nostr offers a promising future for new communities, eliminating the risk of disappearing servers, in BR079.

Did you know that you don't even need a computer to setup a multisig wallet? With #COLDCARD, it can be done entirely offline using an SD card, or even a QR code! @DETERMINISTIC OPTIMISM 🌞 discusses the feature in BR076.

Imagine sending 1 Bitcoin in a transaction, but the 9 BTC in change gets sent somewhere else. ☠️ This is why verifying change addresses is essential, as @Rob Hamilton explains in BR076.
