Iris Received Half of HRF's Secret Nostr Group Chats Bounty
Iris introduced support for secret Nostr group chats that don't leak metadata.
- "HRF has determined that Iris secret chats by @Martti Malmi partially qualifies for bounty #3 (e2e encrypted nostr group chats) and will receive 1 BTC of the reward," Alex Gladstein, CSO at the Human Rights Foundation announced.
"It's a quick & dirty solution, but works. A shared nostr account is created for the secret chat / group. Its nsec can be shared via link, qr code or invite message from a single-use anonymous account," Martti Malmi explained.
- "Users can then communicate using the shared account's messages-to-self. Iris signs the inner messages with your own key, but the arrangement could be used for anonymous group messaging as well," he added.
- "Martti's submission with Iris did not qualify for the full bounty as
only Iris users can initiate a group chat," was clarified in the announcement.
"The remaining 1 BTC is open to any popular nostr client that can
create e2e encrypted nostr group chats with an interoperable standard via a merged NIP."
- "We are excited by all of the interest from around the world in this
bounty program and expect to make more announcements about claimed bounties soon," added the organization.
