114+
## Outbox Implementation
115+
116+
Gossip reads NIP-65 relay lists:
117+
118+
```json
119+
{
120+
"kind": 10002,
121+
"tags": [
122+
["r", "wss://relay.damus.io", "write"],
123+
["r", "wss://nos.lol", "read"],
124+
["r", "wss://relay.nostr.band"]
125+
]
126+
}
127+
```
128+
129+
Then connects strategically:
130+
- Write to your write relays
131+
- Read from follows' write relays
132+
- Discover relays as needed
133+
134+
