What is that?

A talk at BCC8333 😄

No I mean what is http over Nostr?

What does it mean using http to fetch events?

I'm not sure what you're working on, but I've built some prototypes in the past and even suggested a NIP:

It's really inefficient for large payloads, and Nostr relays might think you're spamming them - but it could be useful for small api-requests like when wallets handle LNURLs and lightning-addresses.

https://holesail.io/ is another solution that is decentralized enough and isn't terrible as TOR.
