Yep, equivalent. The simplest form of an Attestation is v simple too. All other events in the NIP are optional, as are most of the tags in the base kind. Would be cool to have you using it also! You would simply use your verification event (30301) as the Subject Event.

My primary interest was to keep this super simple and generic so I can use to attest records that could be relied on as verifiable credentials. I’m a few weeks out on the implementation as I am getting the basic record transmission stuff working (offers, grants, presentations). I’ll then graft on the attestations as per the NIP.
I'll give a look at it in 2 weeks, and we (the team) will talk about it first, but I think we could end up using it. Thanks a lot Nathan!
