I tried skimming the docs, but couldn’t find how domain verification works on Nostr. Does a verified domain work as your handle or only as a verified domain?

That’s my favorite feature in Bluesky. I don’t need to worry about a handle since I can just use my domain.
- nunobrito 2y agoDomain verification is NIP05, here is a tutorial: https://nostr.how/en/guides/get-verified https://nostr.how/en/guides/get-verified Basically create json file on your site at /.well-known/nostr.json Place inside your username and the npub, done.
- LauraMedia 2y agoSo instead of just using a domain TXT record you're required to host a page and provide access to this file? Seems worse than how AtProto handle's this.
- nunobrito 2y agoThat is a wrong assumption. First: You can easily host a million user handles on a JSON file without impact on the website, you cannot host a million user handles as TXT record. Second: It is far easier to update a JSON file on disk than using an API to a specific domain registrar provider and change TXT records there.
