Your npub keys may be more valuable then the keys encrypting your wallet..
.. sats are fungible, you can lose them, but you can stack them back. When your npub is compromised, your notes also are, forever.

umm except no one would want my nsec for any amount of money cuz i have basically no clout. which is true for most of us here.
supply and fungibility is only one side of the equation. i would nuke my nsec for like 5000 sats
There could be a protocol to announce key compromises, maybe based on opentimestamps. The thing is, you don't really lose a key, it just leaks. You can still write and sign a note announcing key compromise. Then every previous note can still be deemed pre-compromise and thus valid
Of course for this to work your previous noted must also be anchored using OT
Yeah, the thing is, when you start using nostr, you should understand very well, whatever data/info you shared, in public or private notes, once you compromise your keys, it's done, there's no way to close the door and encrypt them again witha different one..
Or maybe there is.. 🤔
.. automatically creating a recovery keys when you create your npub? So if the original is compromised, with the recovery you can obliterate the access from the forst one?
