SLIP-39 Shamir’s Secret Sharing.

https://github.com/satoshilabs/slips/blob/master/slip-0039.md

People implemented this like 10 years ago for scuttlebutt, right nostr:npub1wmr34t36fy03m8hvgl96zl3znndyzyaqhwmwdtshwmtkg03fetaqhjg240 ?

Yep. We could use it in nostr apps too.

Nostr seems especially good for that use case because Shamir’s Secret Sharing requires messages to be broadcast as far and wide as possible (prioritizing data availability over all else). Put up the bat signal lol

Oh nevermind actually. I was wrong. Privacy is actually better in this use case

> peer-to-peer protocols are naturally better suited to secret sharing, due to there being no central server that can be surveilled to detect the possible combination of share-holders that a secret-owner might choose
