# NIPs

NIPs stand for **Nostr Implementation Possibilities**. They exist to document what MUST, what SHOULD and what MAY be implemented by [Nostr](https://github.com/fiatjaf/nostr)-compatible _relay_ and _client_ software.

## Event Kinds

| kind | description               | NIP  |
|------|---------------------------|------|
| 0    | Metadata                  | 1, 5 |
| 1    | Text                      | 1    |
| 2    | Recommend Relay           | 1    |
| 3    | Contacts                  | 2    |
| 4    | Encrypted Direct Messages | 4    |
| 5    | Event Deletion            | 9    |

Please update this list when proposing NIPs introducing new event kinds.

When experimenting with kinds, keep in mind the classification introduced by [NIP-16](16.md).

## Criteria for acceptance of NIPs

1. They should be implemented somewhere at least as a prototype somewhere.
2. They should make sense.
3. Other rules will be made up when necessary.
