Nostr Web Client

If you onboard a newbie to nostr, make sure to help them get the nsec into a password manager or similar.

Phones will be lost. Apps deleted. They don't know what they do, and with this (imperfect) backup in place they won't have to start from scratch.

For backup, that's fine. No one should be comfortable moving their nsec around. It should never leave the password manager unless there is an issue.

I'm talking about noobies that have absolutely no idea what's going on. If they get rekt, they will reach out to the person that onboarded them. Or if they onboard themselves, they might remember that they put it somewhere.

I know. Newbies are the most likely to get rekt pasting nsecs all over the place. That's what makes me the most nervous.

Loss is more likely than compromise imho. At least that's what I've learned from onboarding people to bitcoin.
