Recent Notes
Today I launched Sovereign Sessions with 3 new freedom tech tutorials.
LM Studio:
How do you start with the basics of running AI locally on your laptop? What do all the fancy terms mean? What is your...
Nice content. I do a lot of training at work and I watch your videos to reinforce a lot of concepts but also to learn about presentation style and landing information. I appreciate the content!
@jack, what if the blockchain could optionally enforce a requirement that your transaction is signed with your Nostr key? Even with a vuln like ColdCard saw, funds couldn’t move without your nsec. We’d need a BIP but it seems wise to me. This feels like something @Spiral could influence.
We’d have identity and money bound at the script level further improving security and control. @Bitkey hw could also securely generate (or import) and hold your nsec file and link it to the phone app.
@Bitkey would also be an authorized signer in a BitKey wallet implementation so my transactions would either both be signed by me or one by me and one by you.
I think of this like DKIM or TXT DNS records. Or TLS requiring not just a key pair but signed by a trusted cert authority. Similar pattern only using Nostr.

You NEED opt in user seed storage.
Bury it, don’t make it default but make it available.
Certainly could be the phone’s key which would simplify recovery options if your hardware wasn’t handy. I like the other two factors (vendor and hardware) the way they are. But I agree with your premise for the phone key.
Obviously big news with the Coldcard vuln being exploited. I hope by some miracle this can all get recovered and prosecuted and it can be determined who owned which wallets.
I’ve been a fan of @Bitkey ‘s implementation and wouldn’t leave any real wealth on a single signed wallet even if offline and air gapped.
I do think it would be nice to give the option for the phone key to be a BIP-39 seed/passphrase but @jack and team probably did the math and between friction of the ux and security decided against it. But I’d still like the option as perhaps an “advanced” setup.

Welcome back here.
As a heads up, I just got off a phone call with Mitch McConnell and he said he’s ready to vote the right way moving forward.
