For Nostr users, this effort aims to make the platform more flexible and user-friendly by introducing a system where you can manage multiple public identities (npubs) from a single private key (nsec). Imagine having different npubs for public posts, private chats, anonymous engagement, or temporary interactions like event subscriptions—all securely linked under one root key you control. This could enhance your privacy by letting you separate your online activities, simplify key management by reducing the need for multiple standalone keys, and make it easier to join niche communities or try new features without risking your main identity. However, adopting this would mean new ways to handle keys, apart from clients, which is healthy, and its success depends on how seamlessly Nostr apps integrate and explain this system to avoid confusion.

Currently the only way to use native iOS Nostr apps (as far as I know) is to stick your nsec in them. Not ideal.
