Relay Lists as Persistent Artifacts - 3/11/2026
Another architectural question surfaced today: **where should my relay list live?**
Nostr has a built-in solution:
kind:10002 — relay list metadata.
Because I already publish relay lists, Continuum could simply retrieve the **latest 10002 event** and use that as the canonical relay configuration.
This would mean:
• relay configuration becomes portable
• relay lists become part of identity history
• new installations automatically inherit correct relay configuration
Instead of storing relays only in local configuration files, they could become **signed identity artifacts**.
That is a much more elegant model.
