buttercat1791 on Nostr: I'm thinking that clients should handle this npub evaluation and issue confirmation ...
I'm thinking that clients should handle this npub evaluation and issue confirmation events. Relays can then determine which npubs to allow or block based on these confirmations. We can have high- or low-trust relays based on each relay's threshold for allowing an npub. New npubs would necessarily start on only a few relays before getting whitelisted to others as they have more verifiable interactions.
Onboarding becomes key here. If I'm operating a private relay and I manually whitelist my friend's new npub, that speaks well of that npub when other relays evaluate it.
