nostr

why nostr?

how does nostr work?

• everyone runs a client, anyone can run a relay
• user is identified by a public key (can switch clients)
• every post is signed by a private key kept by its owner in secret
• clients fetch data from relays and publish data to relays of their choice
• a relay doesn’t talk to another relay, only directly to clients

get started

1. create nostr account using any clients (e.g. primal.net)
2. save your public and private keys
3. (optional) install key management chrome extension to keep private key safer
