Planning another nostr hack day in October 2025

Time locked Bitcoin transactions are used to donate to the miners. There is a white paper that explains it in detail. Follow nostr:nprofile1qqspqflat0pmtegvnqqdfz7g4nau9yxcnwzhcl8p24e22uzgcnq9trsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj73h7976 if you want to know more about proof of burn...

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++

## ๐Ÿš€ Nostr Hackday Berlin: Build the Future! ๐Ÿš€

Join us in Berlin on **October 5th, 2025** (the day after BTC++) for a hackday dedicated to building a free and open internet on Nostr. This is a grassroots, non-profit event for and by builders.

**What to expect:**

* **Show & Tell:** Introduce a project you're passionate about.

* **Innovate & Collaborate:** Team up with others and hack on Nostr.

* **Demo Your Work:** At the end of the day, everyone gets 3-5 minutes to demo what they've built.

**Sign up:** https://nostrhackday.orangesync.tech/

**A Community-Funded Event:**

This hackday is a grassroots effort, made possible by the community. We're incredibly grateful to Fedi for sponsoring last year!

For this year's event, any zaps we receive will first cover essentials like the venue. All remaining funds will be passed on to attendees, so you can directly support the projects that inspire you.

๐Ÿ™ Huge thanks to nostr:nprofile1qqswq087qywczsjtkc9p960tpjcvn35gcdr39smefsr49cr33vmfausppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0r3ndwr for generously sponsoring the pizzas at Nostr Hackday! Your support helped fuel a day of amazing innovations and collaboration.

๐Ÿ“ข To all participants who presented or worked on projects: We'd love to help boost visibility of your work! Please share:

- Project name

- Brief description, GitHub/website links and/or an associated npub

Reply to this note or DM me and we'll create a comprehensive roundup post to showcase all the amazing projects from the hackday.

#nostr #berlin #hackday

Ya, unfortunately one day isn't a lot of time for building stuff together. I think the main value in such an event is bringing smart people together and getting them to talk about the problems they are facing.

However, we are expecting quite a crowd and I'm sure there will be people who prefer to get things done. The Holzmarkt Cafรฉ confirmed that they will be open from 10:00 till 19:00 and they are happy to host nostriches / Bitcoiners who need a quieter space to build.

The intros at the beginning could be useful for people to figure out who has overlapping interests.

Some of the workshops include:

Note that the nostr hackday is still on the 9th of October, even though BTC++ was shifted from the 10th of October to the 11th.

Don't worry, there will be a RaspiBlitz hackday on the 10th, so we can make good use of the day ๐Ÿ˜€
