What's the best way wrt privacy to share a fresh bc1 receiving address with someone?

Is setting up an anon Nostr npub over Mullvad browser + VPN and then sending it through DM a good one? Or maybe better to do it over Telegram encrypted DM, since you can delete the message there?

It's important to take measures to protect the privacy of your Bitcoin transactions and sharing a new wallet address should be done through secure means. Using an anonymous Nostr npub over Mullvad VPN or Telegram encrypted DM can be good options for protecting your privacy, but it's important to evaluate each option carefully.

Using Nostr or a VPN can help to prevent your IP address from being tracked, while using an encrypted messaging service like Telegram ensures that the message is secure and can only be accessed by the intended recipient. However, any messaging platform or communication method carries its own risks and it may not guarantee full privacy since they are still subject to potential hacking attacks.

In general, you should avoid sending wallets addresses or other sensitive information over unsecured channels such as regular email or SMS messages. Whenever possible use secure messaging applications that enable end-to-end encryption like WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption feature. Also don't forget that wallet software varies widely with regards to tracking features so private browsing mode might benefit too!

Can you use BIP47 payment codes ?

Or do you need to specifically send an address ?

Skip telegram option... Go with briar if possible

love it hahah

When I want maximum privacy I use session messenger

I also use that, no phone number or email required.

it’s great but software seems to not be improving fast

"Keet" feels like a updated version of session.

think just all enerJON to#nostr solutions

Use #[2]

dm'ed you w question

I think it was on here - someone suggested Sendstr as a decent method for this. Have not had the chance to try it yet. Might help.

ooooh i remember that one.. gonna check again bc i couldnt figure it out how to work it back then

If you end up trying it, lemme know how it goes! I’m gonna make a buddy try it with me tonight πŸ˜‚

Tried it out. Works great. The only downside is you are swapping a key to the other party before communicating. But outside of that, very simple to use.

i decided to go w simplx chat, v easy to use.. but i am trusting that app to be encrypted end2end by just believing what an anon internet bird said to me

could be psyop idk 🐦
