The Alby community meeting is a biweekly gathering where members discuss and share updates on decentralized projects, focusing on Bitcoin and Nostr technologies. There were presented two nice nostr related projects in the last meeting on the 6th of February 2025.

# Angor


A decentralized crowdfunding protocol built on Nostr and Bitcoin. Angor is fully decentralized, with no middleman involved in the funding process. It has no backend and uses the Nostr and Bitcoin protocols to achieve this.

4. Why LeopoldoLopez (npub1yxd…3ylt) thinks Nostr is a Lifeline for people under autocratic regimes

quoting nevent1q…ef3r

Why I think Nostr is an alternative to people under autocratic regimes like Venezuela:

1) Inmune to Regime Control and censorship, so if the regime blocks social media (like it happened with X in Venezuela 6 months ago), Nostr cannot be blocked.

2) Decentralized and each user will own their account and followers.

3) Nostr is also a payment rail in BTC. This is KEY for freedom activists and regular citizens. At some point billions of $ of remittances will be able to be sent directly, fast and mega low cost.

4) Nostr is a BTC heavy community, these are people that take freedom and privacy very seriously. Freedom is the core purpose of millions who live under autocracy, so Nostr is at the intersection of financial freedom, free speech and political freedom.

5) expanding the community of Nostr people under autocratic regimes will be going to the frontline in the fight for freedom. There will be lots of learning and action.

i shilled a bunch of nostr clients that im excited about earlier today. however, client devs aren't the only ones that need our love and support.

media hosts and relay operators are some of the unsung hereos around these decentralized parts.

shout out to nostr.build, nostrcheck.me, nostr.download, primal, and all of media hosts out there that are hosting most of nostr's visual data. without you, we'd all be looking at text.

and a special thanks to relay.damus.io, relay.nostr.band, nos.lol, and all of the public relay operators out there. without you, many nostr users would not be able to communicate. thanks to all of the paid and WoT relay operators out there. without you, spam would be a major issue.

thanks to the relay developers <3 without you, none of this would be possible. keep building. algo relays. community relays. smart relays are new and exciting. all of it.

FOSDEM Debrief 🫡

My own stats on what I’ve done over the weekend:

- Spoke to +100 developers, it was great seeing a couple of familiar Flemish faces and meeting some new ones but overall the crowd was extremely diverse.

- Ended up doing a short interview promoting the protocol and ended up going to 0 talks.

- Tried to evangelize by going booth by booth to distribute a Nostr flyer to other FOSDEM projects, with the hope that they would broadcast the info towards their SOME person to add Nostr on their list or to build out a library for the languages that were present ( This was a fairly slow approach )

- Kept it to Nostr protocol 95% of the time, the Bitcoin narrative is not always a good time to push and as a side note I’ve met more Monero users than in the last 5 years.

- Was able to convince some engineers to look into the #soveng endeavor.

Small overview from the most common questions.

- They have heard about Nostr but are not sure of the details. ( mostly through the bitcoin community )
- What is the difference with ActivityPub, Mastodon, Fediverse ?
- IOT developers, so questions regarding MQTT & Meshtastic integrations ?
- Current state of MLS on Nostr ?
- What are the current biggest clients / apps build on Nostr ?
- Will jack still give a talk ?


Things we could improve:

- Bring more stickers like loads more,
- Bring T-shirts, Pins… could be a good way to fund these adventures instead of raising funds.
( Most projects where selling something to help raise funds for projects )
- Almost no onboarding / client installs.
- Compared to the Nostr booth at BTC Amsterdam not a single person asked if they could charge their phone.


Personal Note:
The last time I visited was roughly 13 years ago and me being a little more seasoned I just loved the fact that I was able to pay some support to the open source projects I’ve been using for years ( homebrew, modzilla, Free BSD,.. ) and see the amazing diverse crowd that is the open source Movement 🧡


Al final shoutout to our great pirate crew 🏴‍☠️:
The Dutch Guard ( sebastix (npub1qe3…zefe) & jurjendevries (npub1l77…swft) ) and a adrenaline fueled constant (npub1t6j…ksrw) , hermeticvm (npub1rfw…k3t8) and laoc42 (npub1r30…t9ma) amazing finally meeting you IRL after close to 2 years since the Yakihonne hackathon 😀
