The way we display NIP-05 verifications and how we allow users to check them needs updating. I’m damned sure that SBF is not actually raising money via nostr DM’s.

Hooking these verifications up to verified credentials and providing a page by each verifier with more information about who / what is actually verified is important.

Imagine if I also claimed to be Jack and verified with cash.app?

NIP-05 should not be treated as "user verification" of any kind. Just as a user alias.

Showing checkmark on pfp for users with NIP-05 aliases confuse people.

I prefer Amethyst's way of doing checkmark: it means it's a follow user.

We need a different badge there I guess
