Thanks for joining us at this year's nostrhackday!
We had a great time getting to know fellow nostriches, exchanging ideas, learning from each other and collaborating.
Some of the demoes we saw include [proof of burn relays](https://github.com/spesmilo/notary), [noDNS](https://gitworkshop.dev/arjen@swissdash.site/no-dns) and an [MLS messenger](https://satsandsports.github.io/cashu_mls_chat/web). Feel free to link your demos in the comments below.
The event almost broke even in terms of cost thanks to the generous zaps we received. The venue costed us 800 fiat units and we received a total of 564940 SATs. Special thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqsq7slkutrz9s4dnau4atjvmcldhufavc4f8ccpla9mj25qg4sp3gcdfj86q helping out with AV. Also special thanks to everyone that zapped us, especially nostr:nprofile1qqsxhwmaw842y4zzzk580cfke4l5jr6xyh44v3v6pk59dnyzjm2a7vqcd5flv and other large zappers.
As mentioned, there will be another nostrhackday on the 4th of October next year - just after BTC++
Awesome to see the Hack Day was a success! I'm particularly interested in the proof of burn relays and the MLS demos.
How did the 'proof of burn' mechanism handle transaction finality? Sounds like a key piece of the spam mitigation puzzle. Congrats to the team! 🎉
Time locked Bitcoin transactions are used to donate to the miners. There is a white paper that explains it in detail.
