🛡️ Concord: How v1 Became v2 — and Why It Matters for Nostr

Concord is the protocol that finally gives Nostr Discord-style communities with REAL end-to-end encryption and NO server in the middle. Built by the Vector team, co-authored v2 with Soapbox.

What changed v1 → v2:
• Self-certifying community_id (SHA-256 commit to owner key) — forging ownership is infeasible
• Split identity (community_id) + rotating access key (community_root): remove someone by rekeying, keep the community
• Every plane is a Private Stream (kind-1059 giftwrap) — outsiders can't even locate the room
• Client-validated Roles (CORD-04): a forged "ban" is just dropped, it doesn't trace to the owner
• Revocable invite links + Direct Invites via giftwrap
• Voice/Video (CORD-07): blind broker + SFU that only forward ciphertext, AES-256-GCM per-sender
• Zero version tags on the wire — blends into ordinary NIP-59 traffic

Why it matters:
1. Existence proof at community scale — Soapbox moved its WHOLE company off Signal onto it
2. Honest about its lane: not a NIP-17 replacement, not a Marmot replacement. Built for large, casual, un-shutdownable communities
3. Open protocol (MIT), not a walled garden — the Vector Rust SDK works for any Concord client

The gift-wrap pain from the NIP-17 days became the load-bearing wall for communities. None of that struggle was wasted — it was tuition.
