Your nsec unlocks your identity. Protect it.
Don't trust. Verify.
You must be new here… “Practice safe nSecs” Get w/the lingo, grandpa 🤣

True. but it is hard to protect something that you must enter into apps and websites to gains access to content. a better way need to be implemented where you can authenticate via offline signature signing and not have to enter the most critical part of your online identity into an app or website. or maybe this does exist and i just don't know about it.🤷
Check out @Amber if you have an Android. And there’s always good ol nsec.app and nak. Choose your adventure. 🚀 https://nsec.app https://github.com/fiatjaf/nak?tab=readme-ov-file#start-a-bunker-locally
Very important lesson here. You loose your key you loose your identy. You loose a password you can change it. nostr:nevent1qqswhl0tuxe5wn5w7trkr7c64vvlr6upju92tt7katd4pqut04rfe7sppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgsr7acdvhf6we9fch94qwhpy0nza36e3tgrtkpku25ppuu80f69kfqrqsqqqqqpxvyllu
Make Them Further Apart Please 🙏
How to safely sign nostr events on smartphones? NsecBunker didn't work for me. Are there any other options?
I mainly meant logging into other apps/services with the same pair nsec+npub
I use Amber. It's great for this.
They said that about my social security number too. Won't be long before every form needs your nsec. Want to improve you credit score? Just put your nsec here.
Uhhh… maybe your npub.
Can I use it as my username?
You can... But it would be a horrible choice in doing so. I would not recommend it.
What is the best way to protect it? Asking for a friend 😳

More clients need to support this NIP.
I’m new to NOSTR but not to BTC. Absolutely love what NOSTR represents…but seems like a serious implementation problem when I’ve needed to input my private key into different NOSTR apps.
