Simpler yes, but I’m stuck on manual verification step.. doesn’t seem feasible IRL / at scale… lots of headache to implement an actual recovery.
Also doesn’t seem to solve re-association of past data. User loses a lot in transition. Lots of expectation for other users to do manual steps to recover the social graph. It’s still too damaging.
Yes, our proposal would require a lot of different parties to get behind it to make it work. Inherent complexity there- but activation by the user would be a lot simpler once this is implemented across most clients+relays.
Also, the Excalibur-as-insurance-policy model provides client/relay revenue therefore an incentive for them to implement and make it seamless. I’m certain they could use the revenue from premiums paid by all users who want a recovery option.
I’d pay sats to know my account is recoverable across x number of relays and keep my secure key completely offline until needed, god forbid.
