Trustroots is a social network of travelers and hosts that offer couches. Founded in 2014, 140k members in 2026. We're working on moving this onto nostr. Nostroots is an initiative to transition Trustroots, the platform for sharing, hosting, and community building, onto the nostr network. By leveraging the unique decentralized and open-source nature of nostr, nostroots aims to enhance Trustroots' community-focused ethos with greater privacy, security, and user autonomy.

If you have a Trustroots profile you can head to and try out our experimental map.
Working hard on new stuff this weekend, things may still be a bit unstable.

Redirecting to Nostroots
We now have NIP-05 on trustroots.org
This week we built and set up notes.trustroots.org, a simple nostr notes on a map application. Proof of concept and running code. 
More importantly we now have a group of people who are aligned and focused on building nostr apps aimed at real life social interactions.

This Nostrich loves trees 
We looked at moving trustroots.org towards federated protocols such as matrix or activitypub. Federation means the user still relies on an individual (or org, which is still one or more individuals) running a server and on domain names.
The lack of well-defined profile portability makes such a migration an almost pointless exercise, taking us from centralized to DINO (decentralized in name only).
