One of my favorite aspects of Nostr is that it doesn’t rely-upon new/novel cryptography. It uses “boring/old cryptography” in new/novel ways.

Schnorr/BIP340 is quite new though. Nostr is entirely dependent on Pieter Wuille not having made any mistakes.
By which I mean Nostr is 100% secure.
How can we do some fancy (and useful) zErOkNoWlEdGe cryptography on Nostr? If we did that would attract about 89% of all Ethereum developers.
