- Renamed "Replica Identity Keys" to "Relay Identity Keys" for clarity.
- Enhanced specifications for signing and encryption keys, detailing their usage with secp256k1.
- Introduced a new section on Hierarchical Deterministic Key Derivation, outlining key management protocols and derivation paths.
- Expanded guidelines for key pool management, consumption tracking, and cross-client synchronization to improve security and usability.
- Updated key advertisement structure to include derivation paths and key indices for better tracking and management.
- Modified the signature generation and verification processes to include the relay address, ensuring cryptographic binding between the relay identity and its network location.
- Enhanced the description of the address binding mechanism to clarify its role in preventing relay impersonation attacks.
- Updated related sections to reflect changes in the concatenation process for signature generation and verification, reinforcing security measures for NIP-11 documents.
- Added new `K` and `I` tags to support event kind replication and identity verification in trust attestations.
- Expanded trust level definitions to include replication of custom event kinds specified in the `K` tag.
- Introduced detailed specifications for the `I` tag, including identity proof-of-control signature requirements and usage guidelines.
- Updated event synchronization and conflict resolution processes to incorporate identity verification and key delegation management.
- Enhanced security considerations to address identity tag verification and delegation limits, ensuring robust trust management among relays.
- Introduced a new document defining a protocol for distributed consensus among Nostr relays using replica identity keys and a web of trust.
- Addressed issues of data availability, synchronization overhead, discovery challenges, and trust management among relay operators.
- Specified relay identity keys, trust attestations, and new event kinds for directory event replication.
- Detailed mechanisms for identity verification, event synchronization, and conflict resolution to ensure Byzantine fault tolerance.
- Ensured backwards compatibility with existing Nostr implementations while enhancing directory event management.
