That's really good news and I'm really excited about keybase's future. I'm curious though why they chose to use NaCl instead of libsodium [1]. I was thinking of doing a crypto app a while back and did some research and libsodium seems to be a more portable and recent (removed deprecated code) version of NaCl by the folks at dnscrypt. Maybe I missed something in my research?

- catwell 11y ago"NaCL key" is a generic term, you can probably use them with libsodium, like you can use "PGP keys" with GPG. By the way, libsodium has the same maintainer than dnscrypt (and Pure-FTPd) but he does not work for OpenDNS anymore (afaik he works for OVH, but libsodium is his personal project).
