Oddbean new post about | logout
 I'm sorry, I will be the bearer of bad news again. Those handles are not unique and can be spawned over and over again by scammers, spammers, etc. NIP-05s would be better but people would have to care about them enough to keep them unchanged and valid. The best bet here is to share full pubkeys. I know it is not really feasible in print, but at least in the digital version npubs could be included.  
 True, I also have a smal text about ‘be aware of scammers’ don’t trust, verify. This is more for instagram/twitter users who get a first tast of #Nostr 

Like me I come from non-tech background. I just love to create ✍️ In the online version or website when people like the book we can add the Npubs of course. For now I want people get a small idea what is Nostr. Same like Bitcoin most people really don’t get it (yet) step by step 🤙 
 You taking the npub part into consideration is great and more than enough for me. Thank you.
You know, I suffer with the need to be as precise as possible and it always comes with a cost.  
 We call that "fun at parties." 😄🫂
