Oddbean new post about login | logout do you find it an issue that nsecs are too complex to remember, like a password or 12/24 set of words would be?
I have so many passwords at this point in life I can’t remember any of them so this is no different 😂 Just another random string of numbers and letters that I save in enough places that I won’t lose it.
yeah, but you can't cross the border without any possessions and still remember it by heart like you can with your seed phrase
My old notes are not as valuable as my sats. If it truly came to that a new nsec is a viable solution.
it's also the socialgraph
Those who truly care enough would eventually reconnect and recreate a social graph. Wouldn’t be ideal or convenient, but it’s not completely catastrophic. Losing access to a bitcoin key completely prevents you from ever spending those coins. Not the same loss of access.
If you generate a new nsec using NIP-06, you can. https://m.primal.net/HWfg.png see: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/06.md
