Because Nips are easier to read than a string of random characters & adds a little verified-type checkmark next to your name (only on certain clients rn). So easier to verify it’s the real person when scrolling through the feed

That requires clicking on the account every time to go check the key on their page. The nip identifier *ideally* appears as the name or by the name on others’ feeds

I’m assuming you are using Damus, otherwise You would see my identifier as an example. It appears in every post for everyone else, but hasn’t been implemented into Damus yet.
