NIP-44 v3 adoption is going really well. Here's some updates: First, Amber supports NIP-44 v3 now 🎉 Thanks @greenart7c3! For Go users, there is now v0.1.0 of ncrypt-go. This is a minimal library for Nostr encryption with support for NIP-44 v3, v2 and NIP-04: An extension to NIP-17 private messages that allows backwards compatible upgrades to NIP-44 v3 is also available now: NIP-44 v3 support in Nostr Build Shack is planned, but it's going to take a bit. @The Fishcake (nostr.build) is very busy upgrading @nostr.build, and it requires some major changes to the extension core 🫡 Support is also coming to @Clave by @⚡️ᗪㄖ匚⚡️, very soon. For anyone that wants to implement NIP-44 v3, you can view the specification, test vectors, and implementation guidance here:

## Amber 6.2.0 - Add NIP-44 v3 encryption support, including a dedicated approval screen, intent preview, bunker preview, history logging and auto-reject for invalid requests - Register NIP-44 v3 ContentProvider authorities - Auto-accept NIP-46 ping requests on connect - Ignore empty `` intents so the app can be opened directly - Simplify the invalid intent screen to only close the app - Use a segmented toggle for option pickers, with a scrollbar and shrinking segments when they get too narrow to fit the screen - Remove the `sign_message` signer method - Remove the 1 minute option from the sign-automatically pickers - Disable resource shrinking in release builds - New Crowdin translations Download it with [Zapstore](https://zapstore.dev/apps/com.greenart7c3.nostrsigner), [Obtainium](https://github.com/ImranR98/Obtainium), [f-droid](https://f-droid.org/packages/com.greenart7c3.nostrsigner) or download it directly in the [releases page](https://github.com/greenart7c3/Amber/releases/tag/v6.2.0) If you like my work consider making a [donation](https://greenart7c3.com) ## Verifying the release In order to verify the release, you'll need to have `gpg` or `gpg2` installed on your system. Once you've obtained a copy (and hopefully verified that as well), you'll first need to import the keys that have signed this release if you haven't done so already: ``` bash gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 44F0AAEB77F373747E3D5444885822EED3A26A6D ``` Once you have his PGP key you can verify the release (assuming `manifest-v6.2.0.txt` and `manifest-v6.2.0.txt.sig` are in the current directory) with: ``` bash gpg --verify manifest-v6.2.0.txt.sig manifest-v6.2.0.txt ``` You should see the following if the verification was successful: ``` bash gpg: Signature made Fri 13 Sep 2024 08:06:52 AM -03 gpg: using RSA key 44F0AAEB77F373747E3D5444885822EED3A26A6D gpg: Good signature from "greenart7c3 <greenart7c3@proton.me>" ``` That will verify the signature on the main manifest page which ensures integrity and authenticity of the binaries you've downloaded locally. Next, depending on your operating system you should then re-calculate the sha256 sum of the binary, and compare that with the following hashes: ``` bash cat manifest-v6.2.0.txt ``` One can use the `shasum -a 256 <file name here>` tool in order to re-compute the `sha256` hash of the target binary for your operating system. The produced hash should be compared with the hashes listed above and they should match exactly.

#NIP43v3 #ncrypt #NostrFr @NostrFra L'adoption de la norme NIP-44 v3 se passe très bien. Voici quelques mises à jour : Tout d'abord, #Amber prend désormais en charge la norme NIP-44 v3 🎉 Merci @greenart7c3 ! Pour les utilisateurs de Go, la version v0.1.0 de ncrypt-go est désormais disponible. Il s'agit d'une bibliothèque minimale pour le chiffrement Nostr, prenant en charge les normes NIP-44 v3, v2 et NIP-04 : Une extension des messages privés NIP-17 permettant des mises à niveau rétrocompatibles vers la NIP-44 v3 est également disponible dès maintenant : La prise en charge de la NIP-44 v3 dans Nostr Build Shack est prévue, mais cela va prendre un peu de temps. @The Fishcake🐶🐾 est très occupé à mettre à jour @nostr.build, et cela nécessite des modifications importantes au cœur de l'extension 🫡 La prise en charge sera également bientôt disponible sur @clave par @⚡️ᗪㄖ匚⚡️. Pour tous ceux qui souhaitent implémenter la NIP-44 v3, vous pouvez consulter la spécification, les vecteurs de test et les conseils d'implémentation via @semisol 👇🏼 View quoted note →
Everyone in Nostr already has a Schnorr key and the entire of Nostr works by signing and verifying with nsecs and npubs. So why would you mandate gpg to verify it? Just sign it with your Nostr identity and everyone can see it was you that wrote it. This is like saying "look at my new alternative energy car, of course in order to start it you need a jump start from an old internal combustion engined car"
