I’m not, I’m just paying for jacks verification for him before someone else claims the username. Only the private key associated with his public key will be able to claim it on nostr.
Discussion
Can there be other “jack@[?].[?]”verification domains?
Sure but we already know jacks pubkey, so once he associates his pubkey with a nip identifier we will know which domain the real one is
how do we already know jack’s pubkey?
He tweeted it and it’s the one we all follow on here with like 2k followers
so why not just do that?
Because Nips are easier to read than a string of random characters & adds a little verified-type checkmark next to your name (only on certain clients rn). So easier to verify it’s the real person when scrolling through the feed
just do last 4 digits
there are many real jack’s in the world tho
there will be other jack’s with a verified-type checkmark next to their name, right?
right here
