No, remote Signing is Overkill & Insecure
- Adds unnecessary complexity (relays, remote signers, encryption layers).
- Introduces a single point of failure (remote signer downtime = no posting).
- Increases attack surface (relay MITM, key compromise risks).
- Breaks the seamless Nostr experience (users must wait for sign approval).
Subkeys solve multi-device identity in a simple, decentralized way—without any of these issues.
