The domain nostrverified.com expired about a week ago, rending all those that use them for their Nostr address to be invalid. Scammers can now impersonate these people with ease. Be careful out there.

If you have a domain, consider running your own nip05. 🙏
How do I do this?

Let me know if you have questions!
Yikes! 😱
Why don't You buy it ?
I own enough domains. Plus, I don't like the name. A Nostr address isn't any sort of verification.
Doesn’t nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a use that? Let this be a lesson to anyone not self-hosting their identity or using a service who they have vetted for reliability.
She does.
And as always, if someone needs help setting their own up, I will gladly help you.
Guide a 5th grader could understand plz?
(I don't think I'll have issues with my nostrpurple one)
I believe a few guides already exist, but i can write something up.
Do you own a domain name? If you do it’s really simole
Ai demandé déjà Derek en vain en plus également être en capacité de participer aux zaps avec Alby associé à Zeus enfin. Tout ceci avec via mon téléphone (cela faciliterait l'utilisation de manière participative de nostr pour les non Tech).🙏💜
nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a runs her own website so it would be fairly easy to set it up to verify a NIP-05 address. A lot of us could help.
Just shows how flawed nip05 is and especially when not a domain you control
I think it’s a big misunderstanding, not a flaw.
nip-05 is just a way to alias a pubkey with a domain name. that’s it.
using a nip-05 provider you don’t control is like hosting your blog on facebook or blogger. they can rug you at anytime. but that doesn’t mean the capability is flawed, it means you chose a custodian.
the problem is clients show nip-05 as a “verified” checkmark like twitter. there is no verification on nostr. it’s permissionless.
Agree
Absolutely. I've always said that eventually identity providers would be rated on various criteria and some will be more reputable than others.
I won't let my domain expire and I run a relay. I can get you a nip5 and back up your note for a price happytavern.co 🥰
If you run a node, you can run a self hosted Nostr Address. Services are cool but so is having your own
nostr:note1jjp3uhd4p60zxccrp5uqwtvn7n2dmdj3z5kzjdx3qax0mp6q6zzs7am5lj As someone who knows the basic things bout Nostr this is worrying.
is there an easy way to add nip-05 to a domain I control.... As in drop-a-file-in-a-folder style easy?
Thanks for this heads-up.
