I'm really surprised that Keybase hasn't pushed harder in this direction. From the beginning that's always felt like one of the most logical tools for them to build on top of their product.
- gullyfur 7y agoAgreed. I was disappointed that they instead decided on a failed attempt to capitalize on a cryptocurrency via airdrops (ironically they attempted this a couple years after the hype)
- ccamrobertson 7y agoThey did recently add a "Crypto" tab, but it's totally opaque to me as a user as to how it works and why I would use it (aren't my messages within Keybase already signed and encrypted? should I be concerned they aren't?). I agree that they probably should just lean into PGP as at least it would make sense for folks who know what it is.
- captn3m0 7y agoYup. Building a email-plugin that uses Keybase for key-discovery has been on my ideas list for years now, but I never got around to it. Maybe someone else will. https://github.com/captn3m0/ideas#email-on-top-of-keybase https://github.com/captn3m0/ideas#email-on-top-of-keybase
