I just proved another cool concept with #nostr #safebox.
The idea is that the data is completely portable and can migrate to other relays. If the relay I am using becomes unreliable or hostile, I can simply replicate/migrate the data (the proofs and related data) to other relays and continue on from there. I just proved this with my latest code.
So now #safebox is acting like an organism - if the environment becomes hostile, it can pick up its data and continue elsewhere. Same with the code - it doesn’t actually matter where the code is being executed, so long as it has access to the nsec to access the data.
The implications here are pretty wild: an instance of a ‘wallet’ or ‘safebox’, as like to call it, does not need to e contained within a specific app/device, nor constrained to a specific relay - it can ‘move around’ using friendly code and relays - all that is needed is the nsec.
I honestly don’t know where else this is possible, except for #nostr.
Just wild. This is #unstoppable.
