Still super-excited about #nAuth, a decentralized authorization protocol I am working on. After reading a few more specs, I decided to add a ‘grant’ tag to make it easy to specify what is ‘granted’ after the conclusion of an authentication. I had also added ‘scope’ so the initiator could specify what they are looking for, and the respond replies with the corresponding grant.
It might look like overkill, but I am trying to make a very generic protocol than can serve the majority of #nostr use cases. The latest is here.

This looks really cool. I need to re read and think about this more deeply, but I have a couple of questions:
1. Nauth can publicly be decoded right?
2. So what is the purpose of the nonce?
3. Is there anything that guarantees that the nonce isn't just a preselected number? And what is the attack vector here?
The issue is that we don't know how diverse that panel of signers are.
It could be that every signer is registered at Blockstream and that the list is known to government agencies and marked as top secret to prevent us from knowing it.
So then one or more governments might have the power to coerce a majority of signers and they know how to do it discreetly too, but we don't know this.
Conspiracy theory? Maybe, but until we know, we don't know.
You have a website.
IMO. Your best option is to link your identity to your own domain. This way everyone knows that you are THAT teddy and no one else can claim otherwise (unless they compromise your website).
The other nostr identity services are for people who just want a check but they have no specific website to their name.
You can see how to set that up here: https://nostr.how/en/guides/get-verified#self-hosted (see Self hosted verification)
Also don't forget to use the hex version of your public key (details in the docs above).
WE NEED BIGGER HEADSHOTS. FORKING INTO TRUMP CASH. THIS WILL SCALE 🤞.
HD picture now?
Waiting to hear what the only bitcoin senator, Lummis, has to say about this.
What is she doing and why is she so bad at it?
That's the definition of incentives. If it didn't work, then incentives wouldn't be a word.
Likes are the equivalent of the head nod instead of outright saying "I like this" or "hey, that was cool bro".
And some posts are worth zapping. Dev work is one of them. But a meme, a reposted meme, or a Not Your Keys Not Your Cheese post is cool, but not worthy of a zap.
Post whatever you like. Swear, don't swear, whatever the fuck you like. Tell your story, don't worry about self censoring or getting something wrong because the only thing that can happen is someone else disagrees. There is no master of truth here.
CNN in the opposite to fox right?
Buy bitcoin... Immediately. Take it into self custody, then when they ask for the money back, tell them you lost the keys but didn't realise.
You effectively threw the money away.
Do they:
A) write it off, inflation is unaffected if the money can't move.
B) make it a debt. I can't pay so I'll just file for bankruptcy.
C) something else.
The US comes out looking stupid on this one 😅
They are so up their arse. Ohh the country that is gonna end your war for you... Even I would be thinking FUCK OFF.
🤣 it looks staged for the media and it looks obvious too.
700GB *each*.
I'm now imagining politicians trying to reach people on nostr and being bullied into saying GM before every post because the people here ain't gonna take their shit unless they kiss the ring first.
Aaaaahahahaha
