I'm working on WalletScrutiny.com and I'm trying to move all that could be called "attestation" to nostr with several goals:

* WalletScrutiny should not be the only authority on what we attest to. Others should be able to equally chime in and potentially provide alternative opinions.

* In nostr, events are signed by an author, with the signature being verifiable by the visitor.

* The author has followers or otherwise a web of trust which gives the visitor something to go by when judging whose attestation is worth something and whose not.

* Nostr is a protocol. Attestations could be integrated in other apps that ascribe value to them. zap.store for example could show attestations in the app store where available. bitcoinbinary.org could collaborate on these attestations given the very similar focus.

* Nostr is social. Building on nostr, WalletScrutiny might get more visibility, especially if the integration is not disruptive to others.

My question is which nip or nip proposal should I build on? https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1336/files looks relevant but that's only on the per app level and not on the per artifact level. For example build reproducibility is a property of each binary. Which are the kinds we should use for attestations?
