First impression is I think it works good on a single device, but I worry it would struggle across multiple devices/apps as in the case of Nostr. It would be finnicky.

It's still inconvenient to set up a Monero wallet though right? At least it has high enough barriers keeping most people out. Not sufficient for a default cryptocurrency for new users.

I think the way to make Nostr win is actually not minimalism, it's maximalism. It's meta-layer parodies of everything connecting together into a giant brain. So I don't think a single enlightened core idea ("killer app") is what wins. It's the mycelium layer of the earth that stretches into every corner of existence.

I had the same idea as you a couple years ago but never did it because it was a pain (without AI). But now after doing a cross-platform app, why is this flow not better? iOS here, but the same flow exists on Android. Both systems have a built-in password manager. There's even a navigator.credentials API that woks in Chrome.

2026-05-11 00:50:11 CEST

Native app: 166 megabytes. Developer has to maintain 3 separate versions in different programming languages across an already spread thin team. Lack of library support and poor AI performance.
Web app with Capacitor: 7 megabytes. One codebase for Android, iOS, and web. Whole team collaborates on same codebase. Great library support and AI works well on it. Can quickly test ideas on web first then distribute to app stores later.

There's no way this can be "solved" in the way you want without creating immense complexity. That's the tradeoff. It's already been "solved".
