See all- Nostr Atlanta #1 - making the internet weird again684 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE suite a1, Atlanta, GA
Join us for our first dedicated Nostr meetup (outside our regularly occurring Bitcoin meetups). Calling all nostr users, content creators, enthusiasts, developers, and more!
We have time for 4 "lightning talks" at this meetup. Lightning talks are quick talks or demos that are about 10 minutes along with Q&A time. Let us know if you have a nostr project or idea you'd like to share in a lightning talk,.
This meetup will not be dedicated as technical or not-technical Some topics we cover may be more developer focused, and others will be simpler stuff. If the meetup grows, we can think about whether we need dedicated developer nights or not.
What is Nostr?
A simple way to think of nostr is as a censorship-resistant social media protocol. In other words, instead of social media being owned by large tech giants, it could be a free and open protocol, the way email is.However, nostr is being used for much more than just building social media apps. Nostr flips the current internet paradigm of "dumb client/smart server" to "smart client/dumb server", by using relays and public-key cryptography. Nostr empowers users to control their own data.
