> Rather than creating a crypto wallet, an artist can create a PGP key pair. A PGP key pair consists of two pieces: the public key and the private key. The public key is not unlike a cryptocurrency wallet address, in that it can be freely shared and used to verify data actually came from the person with that key. The private key is not unlike a cryptocurrency seed phrase, in that it must be carefully secured, because access to the private key would allow anyone to sign a transaction as though they were the true holder of that key.
We tried that already and Keybase failed to take off with the masses? And look who's still talking about PGP (and its tools) which that is also a total usability failure for 31 years.
It's not early days and there are some that are giving up on it all together. [0]
Is that why this exists? [1][2]
