Reputation matters far more on Nostr than on other networks.

Here’s why:

• Your notes are immutable

• Anyone can respond to them

(even if you “blocked” them)

• No shadow banning possible

• Zaps are costly to fake

Sure, you could try to scam people and then spin up a new nPub, but that equates to starting your Nostr over from scratch, which takes time and energy to re-build.

In sum, Nostr is a pleb-to-pleb trust network. It takes years to build up this trust, and mere seconds to demolish it.

Act accordingly 🤝

Some thoughts on nostr security, and how it's reasonable to consider these initial npubs/nsecs as utterly compromised due to nsec-based logins.
