vexl

Start here. You have to verify your human and that you are the owner. Vexl is made so that you can trade with your friends and friends and friends privately. All of the phone numbers are hashed locally the hashes do leave the device. The hashes are what build out your web of trust. Your social graph. But if you want to keep trading with your passport and bank account on exchanges, that’s fine. Of course, with anything there can always be trade-offs. You can also use any burner number you want, but then you wouldn’t be able to trade with your friends and friends and friends unless you share that number with them as they won’t have the Hash.

okay, sort of fair point, but are really phone numbers are the best to generate a has from i mean yeah i guess thats a unique identifier, since we are here on nostr i guess that is a valid question to create unique identifier hashes without having duplicates, because if im not wrong this is how crypto wallets and nostr identifiers work, why is a phone number the best proof of somebody being an actual human being, like ai agents can have phone numbers as well, and on the other hand if it is just a hash i can generate other peoples hashes on my own device with giving other peoples phone number, or dont you think this is a possible point of failure?

also if the verification is through an sms code, that means that my number went out from my device to somewhere so they could sent the sms or smt
