A note about the multi-signer bunker. This is really cool stuff made by nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6, that uses FROST to split your nsec in 3 (or more) and distribute each shard to an independent trusted remote signer. This will give you a bunker code that you can use to log in to many web, mobile and desktop apps without exposing your nsec. If you ever lose your bunker code, if the signers vanish from Earth, and it stops working, or if it gets stolen by a malware virus, you can use your nsec to create a new one and invalidate the old one.

Enjoy it and send back any feedback!

I think there are many steps. I would remove the option to save nsec locally and would keep only the option to save it on email.

A lot of people don't have an email.

Btw, I'm evaluating a "compressed" version for people who are in hurry.

A lot of people don't have E-mail? I don't know anyone that doesn't have an email, haha.

Maybe give the user an option to save locally or save in an email.
