βA year ago when we started And Other Stuff, @jack asked me how to take Nostr mainstream, how do we get normies on here, an open protocol. Today I'm really excited to announce that @Divine HQ has a brand partnership with @tacobell
They're posting on Nostr, videos, and they're sending out 40 million invite codes to the divine app, plus running tv and streaming ads for the app when we drop invite codes on the 20th. Divine is part of Nostr and you've always been able to do use the app and our relays with any Nostr nsec and app, but we're building something which makes it accessible to people who never have heard of the idea of open source or protocols.β

1. Nostr Java - v2.0.8
Nostr Java is a Java SDK for the Nostr protocol that provides tools for creating, signing, encrypting, and publishing Nostr events to relays. This release fixes relay subscription routing so EVENT, EOSE, and CLOSED messages are delivered to the correct listeners, removes NIP-44's dependency on JCE provider registration by using BouncyCastle's lightweight ChaCha20-Poly1305 implementation, and adds NIP-44 v2 test-vector verification to prevent encryption regressions.

This was the biggest release of the week, and the latest one was v0.1.4.

1. Mostro Core - v0.14.5
Mostro Core is a Rust-based library that provides the peer-to-peer foundation for building Mostro and other decentralized applications. This release fixes an issue with gift wraps by ensuring the rumor ID is properly serialized, improving the reliability of encrypted Nostr message handling. Although this was the latest, there were also two more releases (v0.14.4 & v0.14.3) last week.

1. Citrine - v3.1.0
Citrine is an Android Nostr relay that lets users run and manage relay infrastructure directly from their device. This release adds NIP-29 group support, NIP-86 relay management, event rebroadcasting, nsite support, improved access controls, and performance improvements across WebSocket and query handling.

1. Mostro - v0.18.4
Mostro is a production-ready, censorship-resistant, non-custodial peer-to-peer Lightning exchange built on Nostr. This release fixes an issue with persisting taken_at during pre-trade take operations, improving the reliability of trade state handling. This was the latest, and there were also the releases of v0.18.3 (they asked not to use this version), v018.2 & v0.18.1 last week.
Contributed by: 
1. Buzz - v0.5.9
Buzz is a Nostr-based collaborative workspace where humans and AI agents can work together on a relay you control. The latest desktop release, v0.5.9, brings a smoother onboarding experience, restores invitations to private channels, and improves how the app handles local storage and cached data. It also adds NIP-AM agent-usage support, along with several fixes to agent reliability, member mentions, prompts, and session handling. This seems like the first and biggest release of the week, and there were also the releases of v0.5.14, v0.5.11 & v0.5.10 last week.
