Safebox: Web of Trust Record Verification

Issued, Held, Presented, Verified

A Nostr-native wallet and records system with staged trust verification.

Identity Neutrality

npub is the base unit of accountable identity.

  • No protocol distinction between person, agent, service, device, or Safebox instance.
  • Issuer, holder, presenter, and verifier are functional roles layered on the same identity primitive.
  • Trust and policy are added above identity, not encoded into identity class.
