buuuuut … Encrypting nsec for private (everyday) use should still be best practice.

So … right now, I see the best “normie” onboarding experience is to simply encrypt and store (not share) their new nsec “in the cloud”. Let their “web of trust” do the key education. Here’s how:

- incentivize “nostr advocates” to invite their friends.
- ask for U&P (only) upon invite.
- create Nip05 with username.
- encrypt nsec with password.
- allow for logging in ( anytime to the onboarding client) with U&P and pasting OUT encrypted nsec for use in other clients.
- encourage advocates themselves to educate their new friends about key management, recomended clients, quality content and follows, and other Nostr pro tips all from WITHIN the onboarding app.

Tell me there’s a better way for onboarding today…
