safebox This is a live demo showing one #safebox requesting a record from another #safebox. It looks straightforward- scanning a QR code but behind the scenes the safeboxes are negotiating which relays to use, transmitting quantum-safe public keys, additionally encrypting the payload and sending via encrypted gift wraps as ephemeral… Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2026, 10:03 PM
What’s really cool is that I’ve landed on a pretty straightforward app coordination protocol. Front-end web app presentation (HTTP GET/POST) App dynamic interaction (Websockets) Back-end data transfer (NIP-01, NIP-44, NIP-59 + PQC) All sensitive data goes through the back end. TLS is not… Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2026, 7:25 PM
nostr It's been a heavy lift, but the past few weeks have been dedicated to making #nostr #safebox #quantumsafe. For individual #safeboxes, they will have a separate encryption key that is never exposed via a public key. For transmission of records, payload are additionally encrypted using key encapsulation method Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2026, 7:13 PM
Fastinating to see that government appointed amd unelected officials making statements that they are independent of the very governments they serve. 150 years ago, Walter Bagehot pointed this out contradiction of interests in his treatise on central banking, Lombard Street.… Tim Bouma Jan 13, 2026, 10:30 AM
