What's the timeline?
Wait for a solution to emerge. Actually, many solutions exist that are reasonable useable for nostr. Bitcoin has a different set of desirable properties for quantum signatures, and that makes it quite tricky to solve optimally.

Sadly yeah. Have coinbase hold our keys or spend it all

What good is an pseudo-anonymous identity that I need to rotate with other pseudo-anonymous identities? Might as well just be using something anonymous.
I did not mean we will rotate the identities. I meant we will rotate the key note often. Which means generate and shake hand with new keys quicker than the decrypting capability of the adversary. The matter of quantum resistance of keys is important to crypto and nostr. There are three levels of activity online: - linked to civil existence - pseudonymity - anonymity As per "Our Futuristic Vision" at SlingshotVPN dot com/vision. In anonymity from one contrition to the other, nobody can tell if the avatar was used by the owner or not... Anonymous activity won't create a discussion where each can manage a persona and move back and forth with the conversation. Anonymity is fire and forget (when it comes to attribution, there won't be any attribution). #quantum_resistance #cryptography #bitcoin #nostr #VPN #futuristic_vision #slingshotvpn #anonymity
