How does one get that from bip85. Doesn’t bip85 just produce 12 or 24 word seed phrase? How does that translate to a PGP?
It can be used to encrypt / decrypt messages (for e2ee messages like email), but also for signing data. For example code I commit to repositories is signed using my gpg key. If you want to verify that a commit was indeed pushed by me, you can verify the signature on it.
Many developers sign their releases as well. For example when you download Sparrow Wallet you can get an additional signature file to verify that the release was indeed created by nostr:npub1hea99yd4xt5tjx8jmjvpfz2g5v7nurdqw7ydwst0ww6vw520prnq6fg9v2

No, BIP85 does not produce seed phrase. It produces “entropy”. See the bip for different examples: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0085.mediawiki
Thanks for that. Really useful. Reminds me why
