There is no better way currently, Nostr is something we are looking at for sure. But right now we need a web of trust we have all spent years building
You should get some youtubers to review it, like nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8 for instance
But still not sure why requiring phone numbers on @vexl is a good idea. Many countries require government ID/passport/KYC/personal identification numbers/legal immigration status to get/activate a phone number/SIM card, hence @vexl discriminates against those people, which violates the principles of bitcoin being an open and permission-less network
@bitcoin applications need to be kept open and permission-less, to ensure usability and access to all and everyone, everywhere, fully independent of government policy
