What’s a Passkey? It’s a secure alternative to passwords, using public-key cryptography (FIDO2/WebAuthn). Your device generates a private key (stored securely), and the service gets a public key. For login, you just sign a challenge—no passwords! Nostr keypairs can be used too 🔑 #Privacy #Nostr #WebAuthn
