Paid Relays
Paid relays charge a small admission fee which is paid using the Bitcoin Lightning Network. Using these relays helps to minimise spam and supports the relay operators to continue providing a relay service.
Special Purpose Relays
Adding these special purpose relays can assist with discovery of new users, finding user profiles and ensuring that notes are broadcast to other relays correctly.
- wss://welcome.nostr.wine – Relay providing notes only from new users.
- wss://purplepag.es – Event kinds 0 and 10002 only for user profile discovery, gossip-compatible
- wss://relay.mostr.pub – Mastodon Fediverse bridge relay (more information here)
