When #frost becomes a viable multisig-style tool for nostr private keys, does the cryptography in some way allow for “converting” an existing nsec into a FROST structure?
In other words, could I retain my primary keypair and somehow make it into a an offline key? (Currently it was generated in damus (npub18m7…q955) and has only been exposed to Damus and a pen-and-paper backup).
I’d love to gain the additional security but not have to rebuild the content and social graph that I’ve spent nearly 2 years building. But how?
Or as another route, could I use a new FROST multi/nsec along with an nsec-bunker type authorization tool, such that the new key is the master key behind my bostonwine nsec?
Not sure who to ask… NVK (npub1az9…m8y8) rot13maxi (npub1mxr…0htc) and benthecarman (npub1u8l…turz), y’all were discussing on today’s BitcoinReview (npub1qdc…zclt) or maybe jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s), or PABLOF7z (npub1l2v…ajft) - nsecbunker is your creation, right?
Hell, might as well #asknostr
