TLDR: Top 30 relays may go away and still 95% of the posts are still there. It says Nostr is better than Fediverse in terms of decentralization. @fiatjaf @Mazin

The paper provides a deep level of research into nostr's resilience and provides some useful ideas for making it even more resilient. It unfortunately doesn't take the outbox model into account, but maybe they can add that next. I think this is the first academic paper about nostr, and it's published by researchers at a university where I also studied 🀯🀯🀯❀️❀️❀️
