“LOGIN WITH NOSTR” IS AN ILLUSION JUST LIKE “SENDING BITCOIN FROM AN ADDRESS”
Discussion
Calm down. You'll scare the non-devs
😂Like it. There's only zap sats⚡️
Maybe we need the “inventing nostr” book too after “inventing bitcoin” did such a great job explaining why we’re not really sending bitcoin from an address :)
Why do you think so?
but Nostr doesn't have utxos, what do you mean
THERE ARE NO WALLETS
THERE ARE NO COINS
Do you think client server architecture won't be able to utilize nostr for identity?
I've been thinking about this, and I feel like we have Client Relay architecture (most nostr apps), but there could also be Client Server Relay apps.
If I just want to make an app and host it on a server, but not deal with identity management myself, I could have you sign a nostr event with some challenge and then use a session cookie like a normal client server flow.
I just see it as another way to prove your identity to a server to access authenticated information. I don't think client relay flows will replace every usecase for an app.
