Ditch it, start new nsec, use a burner email

I onboard a friend a few weeks ago in person and it was an ambysal failure trying to add myself on his account through Damus. Not to mention I tried zapping him and it kept failing 😭

I hate linking a Nostr account to email, for kyc reasons. I know it could be useful when it comes to account recovery, but can we come up with a better way?

I didn’t try with primal because of the email requirements, can recommend nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq, or nostr:npub1kvaln6tm0re4d99q9e4ma788wpvnw0jzkz595cljtfgwhldd75xsj9tkzv (currently in TestFlight, checkout minibits.cash). The latter works well with NWC too. Both are simple to set up compared to many I’ve tried. Zapping is smooth with nostr:npub1kvaln6tm0re4d99q9e4ma788wpvnw0jzkz595cljtfgwhldd75xsj9tkzv and the NWC setup.

Yeah, we really need some kind of key rotation / backup key system

Always use burner emails or aliases
