NIP-04. NIP-17. NIP-29. Our own Universes. Marmot. Every one taught us something, none of them was the whole answer.&#xA;&#xA;Now it is. Encrypted communities, no company in the middle, and we run our entire team on it.&#xA;&#xA;It&#39;s built on the Concord Protocol by the Vector team, nostr:npub16ye7evyevwnl0fc9hujsxf9zym72e063awn0pvde0huvpyec5nyq4dg4wn and nostr:npub12w73tzcqgpr2pcy4el5x60d2emeud4cyeeayynzqqg2fefzgytaqm4ktz3, who pivoted from Marmot to their own protocol. &#xA;&#xA;nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p worked with them on v2, and we ran with it.&#xA;&#xA;A tip of the hat to Flotilla nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn for leading the NIP-29 charge, too.&#xA;&#xA;I wrote the whole messy, honest story, including the dead ends.&#xA;&#xA;https://soapbox.pub/blog/building-an-armada-voyage-to-encrypted-communities</html></oembed>
