It’s sort of a “car vs faster horse” thing. If you ask people on twitter what they want, they’ll say “less bots”. What if they just want to know when they’re talking to a real human for certain, and a way to optionally filter out all bots in general?
Doesn’t need to become a desperate marketing ploy for Nostr, but it could absolutely be a leg up for the network if a solution like that existed here. Because twitter will always promote spam bots. They increase shareholder value.
I wonder though if something like Bright ID could be implemented in a frictionless manner with a Nostr app though. Linking Nostr ID to Bright ID is simple enough. From there it’s essentially just scanning a QR code in person to verify your friends. Sybil resistance and privacy preserving afaik
