huh, but it has the pubkey, why wouldnt it be able to know its even or odd when computing shared secret? im missing something here..

it's not possible for the sender to know the extra bit, they pick the wrong one, the receiver at best could send back a reply "wrong bit"
damn 🌋🌊
dang
I think it's time to hopefully ask nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 and maybe nostr:npub1zuuajd7u3sx8xu92yav9jwxpr839cs0kc3q6t56vd5u9q033xmhsk6c2uc
Something seems really wrong. This is nothing that's come up in my tests before. Were all missing something?? This is a huge deal! I beleive this would be part of an EC twist vulnerability...

i wasn't aware of what this exactly means, it's not a vulnerability, it's a bug that surely is killing nostr adoption because everyon expects DMs to work, but they obviously can't work without that extra bit
if my dm partners are mostly different sign keys to me, we can't use it
