#Amethyst v0.92.0: Tor and NFC-hosted transient accounts

This version ships with a Tor service enabled by default to access .onion urls and untrusted relays from the Outbox model. It also offers NFC-hosted transient accounts: accounts that log off as soon as the app goes to the background, deleting all traces of the account from the phone.

Write your ncryptsec to an NFC tag and hide it in your clothing. When you need to use Amethyst, tap the tag, insert your password and login. Lock the screen to delete everything. If you are an activist and if your phone is confiscated, they will never find anything on the phone. Not even your public key. Ncryptsec is a NIP-49-based password-encrypted nsec. If you need, you can destroy and dispose the NFC tag.
