Short history of a little crazy, and experimental relay: wss://mix.gzuuu.xyz
Last night, I was floating through cyberspace when an idea struck me. A note mixer relay - a simple yet intriguing concept. Essentially, it's a relay that accepts your notes, but instead of store them, it re-signs them with the relay's keys, effectively anonymizing and mixing your notes. This is the npub I'm using for this and where all mixed notes are published
mixer-relay (nprofile…6hp6) .
This idea isn't entirely new, there was some exploration around group of people sharing an nsec. This is the case of
SEC-02 Nym Chat (nprofile…rqpx), for example, it was created during sec01.
In summary, this note mixer relay will accept your notes, re-sign them with the relay's keys, and then publish them. Does this idea interest you, or does it make sense? Currently, anyone can publish to the relay, but I plan to implement a whitelist for pubkeys based on my contact list. This could also be integrated with a wot relay, allowing you to mix notes from your friends or entire social graph. Perhaps there are some interesting use cases to explore? 🤔
Just a heads up: be careful not to publish to multiple relays, as this will leak your original note, signed by you.
