Introducing HAVEN - The Ultimate Relay For Sovereign Individuals

HAVEN (High Availability Vault for Events on Nostr) is the next evolution of personal relays that take self sovereignty and decentralization to the next level.

https://github.com/bitvora/haven

It's a 4-in-1 Relay with:

- Private Relay - for your drafts, ecash/nutsacks and anything else only you should be able to see

- Chat Relay - for your web of trust to be able to send you DMs or to host private group chats.

- Inbox Relay - for people to send reactions, zaps and likes to your notes. It also pulls these notes from other relays in real time. Protected by web of trust

- Outbox Relay - for others to read from. This will contain all the notes that only you publish. Anyone can read, only you can write. Every note sent to your outbox relay will be BLASTR'd to other relays.

It also has many SMART relay features, including:

- It imports all your old notes to your outbox relay, and imports any note you're tagged in to your inbox relay
- It protects your relays using your Web of Trust
- It automatically backs up all your notes to a 3rd party cloud (currently only AWS S3 support - more soon™)
- It blastr's your notes to other relays

Amethyst users will love this relay because it gives you every relay you need to complete the relay configuration.

It is my hope with this relay that we can significantly increase the decentralization of Nostr by giving people an extremely powerful and reliable personal relay that gives them control over the longevity and privacy of their notes. With more people running personal relays, clients should be more inclined to implement the outbox/inbox model.

You can see HAVEN in action on my personal relay:

- wss://relay.utxo.one/outbox
- wss://relay.utxo.one/inbox
- wss://relay.utxo.one/chat
- wss://relay.utxo.one/private

I am extremely excited about this release and can't wait to see what the nostriches think of it!
