10 sats \ 3 replies \ @OriginalSize 4 Feb \ on: Is NIP-05 best for key rotation / hygiene? nostr
Disagree wholeheartedly. Keys are what make Nostr so solid. Compromise is talked about way more than it happens and when it does, it's pretty quick to unfollow one key for another. Domains introduce counterparty risk so I wouldn't double down on them. NIP-05 is fine as a convenience but should not replace keys as the base layer of identity.
Oh, good points. There's something I thought about but did not write: I was thinking that this is ideal when it's your own domain.
Agree that using someone else's domain is counterparty risk.
And still keep my position that telling everyone your npub in blogs and websites you are unlikely to edit again n the future is not good because eventually you will migrate to a different key. So, to correct my initial post: considering you have your own domain, it would be better instead to tell people to find you via your NIP-05. What you think?

Even your own domain has counterparty risk. Two parties typically. I still think it's more of an interesting topic than a risk. Bigger risk with Nostr is it never grows beyond a small niche.
