MightyAce on Nostr: Trying to understand how different #nostr clients handle private keys. In the process ...
Trying to understand how different #nostr clients handle private keys. In the process of exploring and learing the nostr ecosystem I am downloading different clients. Coming from security background I am somewhat hesitant giving out my private key, so created a "test" profile with unique set of keys for this purpose. But this brings a question how does one know their private key is handled securely, short of reviewing the code for each client.
