Sweet. If I finally get my own domain working for NIP05, do I keep my nostr plebs account/status?
**[771756] [Nostr Plebs](https://nostrplebs.com) partners with [Snort](https://snort.social) to launch NIP-05 ID in-app registrations!**
New and current users of the popular Snort.social Nostr application will now be able to register their very own NIP-05 ID by utilizing the Nostr Plebs API. New users will be given the option to register their ID as part of the new on-boarding process and current users will be shown a new *Buy* icon when viewing their profile. This helps Snort users to become easily identifiable across Nostr while streamlining the whole process for Snort users via a few simple steps.
We would like to thank #[0] and all contributors of Snort for their hard work and dedication on this integration as well as their incredibly smooth and high functioning Nostr client. Together, Nostr Plebs and Snort will continue to bring top tier customer support now paired with a high quality Nostr experience.

And lastly, I'd like to personally thank #[1] for their continued hard work and dedication towards NostrPlebs.com. Without them, Nostr Plebs wouldn't be where it's at today. I look forward to continuing to provide services and support to all of you, my fellow Nostriches. We are all winning. 🤙
Big if true
Got it. Yeah I just trying to think if conceptually, there could be cool use cases for generating new npubs for every message from an xpriv, where a service provider has the xpub. Like the Swan autowithdraw feature - they know it’s your pubkey but the rest of the network does not.
Hm. When I use a mobile hot wallet, is it not touching my Bitcoin private key? What’s the big difference I’m missing?
Also, welcome to the party 🤙
I’m not promoting the idea, just trying to think it could provide any UX benefits to nostr relays/services
Leaking privkeys though… obviously this is bad in any scenario. In the context of nostr, I’m not sure what the specific concerns are with providing an xpub to a service provider. To me it seems equivalent to giving an xpub to a Bitcoin exchange, etc.
Sry I should have said generate npubs from an xpriv. It might be a bad idea, but it could be interesting to experiment with trust models where you give an xpub to a relay or some service, and use the corresponding xpriv to generate new npubs each use
Can npubs be generated from an xpub, a “n-xpub”? I don’t have a specific use case in mind, but it would be cool if the relay automatically whitelisted a new npub from a known n-xpub
Conversely, you can safely run an 8 year old version of MySQL 😂
Yeah this is my general concern. Web/browser/frontend stuff is generally way outside my wheelhouse, but using old or novel browser builds is generally not a good idea.
Understood. Is Kiwi generally considered safe/usable compared to Chrome, Firefox?
Got it. But does it also run on desktop? Personally on mobile I would prefer a native app. On desktop, web app is preferred.
Cool. Is Kiwi browser available for Linux/MacOS/Windows? Never heard of before Nostr 😂
Still need to test on other browsers but on Firefox a lot of the main GUI tabs still don’t work at all: Follows, Followers, Relays
Where can I learn about the raw probability of and computational resources required to generate POW of N length?
https://github.com/grunch/rana
I installed it via cargo.
Then simply:
rana --vanity-n=myvanity
"myvanity" can be textual or traditional pow (zeros)
Thanks! And “myvanity” is for the bech32 encoding, so limited to that char set? Has anyone done the math on the probability of mining one with a vanity prefix of length N?
