You could do also on nostr:nprofile1qqsxhugzf33nvzfmvvkm9k3pkedyf37c9qcy2na56atrfw3grctpeyqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7cl24cn, with full privacy (unless you choose to export and share an unencrypted copy)
**voluntary** KYC for an npub would be kind of useful. very simple, take a picture of these three things:
- Your face
- Some government ID
- the npub in question
Timestamp it.
You could use that npub for any "official business" - like agreements between parties who don't otherwise trust each other, say on https://attestr.app
Two people who don't know each other but are known to other people in the world could publicly post their (properly KYC'd) agreements in public.

lol wait, nostr:nprofile1qqsxhugzf33nvzfmvvkm9k3pkedyf37c9qcy2na56atrfw3grctpeyqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7cl24cn exists...? why did I build attestr.app ?
We're only active on Nostr, Matrix, and Simplex
We also had a long quiet build period to get a stable version out
We got refused funding twice, so it's completely bootstrapped and VC-free
Shout out to nostr:nprofile1qqspammxr488mt787x2u5v5tp4mffl5yxm3ec8srxmuqh3l8qlm5m9cprpmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuumwdae8gtnnda3kjctvqy28wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hszrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqjsfcea who offered us a small amount at the start (~ 2 days of dev) - although we weren't able to accept, at the time.
SIGit has absorbed around 1,800 hours
Some of that was mistakes, more was lost due to tools (we made several PRs to ndk and other places)
we learned a lot along the way. It's not finished yet but it is ready to use and we are actively seeking feedback
Attestr looks cool. We need more tools like this. Nostr was built for proving stuff
