Is our digital identity state-approved-birth-certificate identity or who we are in the digital world?
IMHO on nostr we could verify each user we know or follow by approving their npub. The user approved by a great number of others has more genuine ID. How genuine other accounts are would also influence genuineness of the user. If nsec is stolen, we unverify old account and verify the new one.
This functioned before any IDs or papers were issued by the government. People knew and recognized their friends. With digitalization we don't need to meet these people in person or see them to know them digitally.
I would be interested what @PABLOF7z @ODELL think about this topic and solutions.
