Hunch is that we can build greater trust in nip-05 verifications through support of verifiable credentials.

(For example, despite my cash.app verification, I could change my profile info on here to look like anyone else and still retain that verification - which imo defeats the point of the verification to laypersons who don’t understand the nuances of how to interpret the verification)

Not sure how to do this. But seems it’d be possible (VCs are basically just signed json).

Benefit being a person, business, etc could prove they really are who they say they are more reliably, and in a self sovereign way
