For the most part, yeah - if your nsec is compromised, you’re S.O.L.
Some very clever devs have been working on things like “nsec bunker” which (if I understand correctly) uses your nsec to authorize additional keypairs to sign events “as you”, with the idea that you’ll want to have multiple digital identities for different purposes.
It’s very very early
okay, thanks! :)
I'm still used to the hive blockchain, where one has
hierarchical keys
one to post (for mobile device, if compromised they can only post)
one to make transactions
and a master/ owner key, which can be used to renew itself with a new derived owner key, from which the posting and active (transactions) key are being derived
so if my phone gets compromised
they can only post in my account - until I have renewed all keys

but I guess cuz nostr is not a blockchain, this tech cannot be used here anyway..^^
