I just got off the horn with the folks at @BitTasker . They have integrated passkey alongside Nostr login. This is an interesting idea worth looking into … 👀

Passkeys, Not Passwords
We've implemented passkey authentication, which provides enhanced security compared to traditional passwords. Passkeys use public-key cryptography to create unique authentication credentials that remain on your device.
Designed to resist password-based attacks
No shared secrets stored on our servers
Biometric verification on supported devices
FIDO2 standard compliance where supported

I am curious about PassKey … not as a replacement for passwords (Nostr keys already do this) but as a “third party key generator, signer, and manager” for Nostr clients. (Like Amber currently does, but using an industry standard protocol implemented at the OS level.)
I wonder if a single Nostr keypair can be used for discrete event signing (not just login) and accessed across multiple clients via PassKey? This would fill the gap…
