What happens when you lose your private key on Nostr? In this episode of the Juan Galt Show, we sit down with developers Topher Scott and Austin from Pleb Lab to talk about FROSTR—a new protocol that uses Bitcoin-style multi-sig cryptography (FROST) to secure your identity on Nostr. From the philosophy of owning your digital identity to the real-world problems of key loss, key rotation, and safe authentication, this episode goes deep on how Fostr works, what makes it different, and why it’s a crucial step forward for decentralized social media and Bitcoiners alike.
