I remember a time without computers and screens everywhere. Therefore I am quantum resistant.

What would quantum-safe Nostr look like? Nostr is actually well-positioned for post-quantum migration: Possible approaches: * New NIP for PQC keys * * Dilithium * * Falcon * * SPHINCS+ * Dual-key identities * * Classical key (secp256k1) * * PQC key (for forward security) * Identity rotation * *Old pubkey signs new PQC pubkey * Relays enforcing PQC-only events --- Thanks @MK Fain for making me look into Nostr's quantum resistance and turning my shitpost into a little bit of knowledge and exploration. I am far from an expert in cryptography, so this could all be bullshit.

Since quantum is the new current thing I'm going to submit a PR to #shakespeare that adds quantum resistance. It doesn't actually do anything or mean anything, but that's also kind of the point.
