The distributed web won't be built on blockchains. However, it will be monetized via sats over the Lightning Network.” - Marty Bent,
We discuss Nostr, its 3 main components, relais, clients and key pairs. We discuss why Nostr is different than Twitter, and potential applications. I am joined by Alex Poltorak founder of Hodling SA, provider of self-custodial security solutions for large holders of bitcoin and Massimo Musumeci and physicist and security specialist at Denali.
