It’s currently in closed beta. Eventually, I think Nostr login will function like most sites where you’ll be able to just log in and an account will be created for you.
Discussion
If account creation is solely outsourced to nostr, and payments are outsourced through ₿, the liabilities are out of your hands nostr:npub1manlnflyzyjhgh970t8mmngrdytcp3jrmaa66u846ggg7t20cgqqvyn9tn has given a couple of great talks I’ve seen on this.
I wish ya all the luck and look forward to using it.
You wanted to say that it won't be private? Many options to get your info leaked?
There’s that too. But also why have to store user info at all if you can let nostr do it.
This brings up good points about security and control of messaging. If DMs include the details of each purchase and shipping address and name perhaps that is stored with the instance alone but those get relayed about, right?
Seems like there almost needs to be a layer of encryption (there may be already) where both profiles need to be active and in agreement for a DM to be decodable so some DMs could be "orphaned/unreadable" due to other side npub becoming inactive or abandoned (due to nsec change, user inactivity etc) and that would be the verification or proof of life on account.
Is that a NIP?
