*sigh* I was careless with my security and someone got ahold of the nsec private key for this account. Pleaseunfollow and ignore and don't respond to DMs. I'll make a new one with video proof of identity tomorrow. -AdamSoltys
happened to me too. I still use the garbage nsec cause it's a hassle to start over on nostr.big problem with nostr IMO, but cannot be fixed without a protocol fork.
Disagree. WoT fixes this
How? It's not like Farcaster where you can have your trusted people sign off on a new main key. For nostr therecan only ever be one main key per human. Best you can do is keep it very secure (not easy) and rely on bunkers,signers, etc. we all know the drill .
you precisely can have your most trusted people attest to your new key. exactly what you said.

You're right that the tactics are quite different between the two systems, but you're wrong that the general solution "impossible" on nostr. It just employs different tactics than Farcaster.
Feel free to prefer the blockchain solution if you like.
I prefer the tradeoffs on the WoT side.
