Keybase actually already allow validation of a domain name with dns record. If they could add validation of an tls (ssl) certificate and provide a browser extension that added their own indicator to the toolbar to validate that the domain is owned and secured by the correct entity that would work well.
- zaarn 9y agoThere is a different use case though. Keybase already has your Public Key so to prove you own a domain it is sufficient to put a signature up and available in DNS to validate this claim. An attacker does not have this validation signature and can thusly not arbitrarily sign sites as you. I don't see how keybase would help for a Certificate Validation, especially since Keybase makes no actual attempts at indentifying you (that is a problem of your social circle on keybase)
