User Handles
This identifier is another mechanism of verifying a public key belongs to the account you think it does. Formatted like an email address, it often sits in a user profile.
Nos users can set a user handle in Nos either after signing up for a Nostr account or by logging in with an existing private key.
Watch this quick video below to see how it works.
