Previous week I had to honour to host a second Nostr NL meetup with jurjendevries (npub1l77…swft) and starnold (npub1w98…cwpx) at Seats2meet Utrecht CS during the monthly Tech Tuesdays. This time we held a talk / presentation in which we explained some core-concepts of Nostr as a open protocol.

We talked about the current most popular clients (Primal, Damus, Amethyst) where you can expierence a Twitter-style social public space online.
We discussed which problems with the internet Nostr could fix. It could act as a strong counterforce against the current BigTech platforms and their business models.
We showed how the protocol transmits information as JSON formatted data between clients through relays.
We discussed the advantages, disadvantages and current challenges around Nostr.

At the end we had some drinks and enjoyed the orange-pilled beers from mario (npub135q…w4sq).

I would like to thank everyone who was there. If you’re interested in the next one, we will meet again Tuesday April 16 at 19:30 CEST Seats2meet Utrecht CS. During this meetup we will dive further into the value4value model with Nostr, a semantic web and micropayments + split payments with zaps. And we have some Nostr pins left you can get at the meetup 🙂
