This is about using STARK proofs to verify Nostr event signatures more efficiently. Relays (servers) can strip signatures from events and provide a single STARK proof that all signatures in a batch are valid. This:
Boosts Privacy: Signatures are not revealed, providing deniability.
Saves Bandwidth: Removing signatures reduces data size.
Speeds Up Verification: Batch-checking signatures with one proof is faster.
