10$ Nostr hardware signer!
Hey guys checkout my new nostr connect hardware signer, it runs on a ESP-32 T-Display-S3 and uses NIP-42 over wifi 😀


Oops did I accidentally reveal the secret connection QR code?... It would be a shame if everyone went to https://coracle.social/ or https://next.nostrudel.ninja and used it to login all at once 😬
Thanks to nostr:npub1dqepr0g4t3ahvnjtnxazvws4rkqjpxl854n29wcew8wph0fmw90qlsmmgt for creating it https://github.com/blackcoffeexbt/hardware-nostr-connect-device
P.S. for those are worried this is only for a test account nostr:npub1htwsur5rxeymwqgsd7pfe9wlz3nw42a3d08w0k928cx9feypytyqkyx5gg

This is basically self sovereign 2fa. The sort that a company might use if they have an important brand or reputation.
Imagine, you can turn it on and off exactly when you are using it. Plugging something in is gonna be so much less cumbersome than typing in a password and then getting a code and typing that in and then never logging out either. But maybe that is just me.
Love it. Can't wait for people to take it in all the different directions.
Oh, come on. This device is a mini you, and you can carry it in your pocket. Its physical ownership of your account.

Just had a thought... what if your cashu ecash was on a physical device like this that used nwc or another secure method over nostr to make a payment?
Yeah, it's like client-server architecture, but both client and server is yours and heck, it makes your ecash physical, not individually, but like an ecash vault.
Even if we gotta trust a mint, we can still secure the cash. 🤷
nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg this is where you tell me someone is already working on this too.
I would love to see this, maybe on an esp32-style cheap device.
