5/7/2026 -Continuum is becoming something much broader than “a Nostr client.”
That became very clear today.
The core abstraction is starting to look more like:
local-first sovereign signing identities
Where:
* signing
* publishing
* attestation
* authentication
* verification
* distribution
are all separate concepts.
Most systems collapse all of those together.
Once you separate them, very different possibilities emerge.
Tomorrow I want to:
* add SSH signing identities
* build the complementary “Verify Artifact” flow
which will locally verify:
* PGP signatures
* Bitcoin attestations
* Nostr Schnorr attestations
* later SSH proofs as well
