Submit a Nostr Address (NIP-05) identity request
to get a "verified" checkmark on your username at
Damus, Amethyst, Nostur, Snort, & Primal clients.
Nostr protocol uses human-readable identifiers to find and follow others on Damus, Amethyst, Nostur, Primal.
The identifier serves as a substitute for a public key and identifies users in a recognizable way on any Nostr client.
This identifier is commonly compared to an email address you can
personalize:
[email protected]
We'll always offer a free version of our Nostr

domains to really stand out in the Nostrverse, a premium relay without spam, and Nostr address
email forwarding!

Currently, you cannot use the newer npub
addresses for a NIP-05 identifier address. You must convert a Damus key to
an old-style hex key.
You can get the hex version of your public key

If you change your username in a Nostr client, it will break the identification and
you will need to go through the identification process all over again.
Additionally, if you change your public key, it will break the
identification and you will need to go through the identification process all over
again.
Simply re-use our identification form to set a new username
with your public hex key.

No. If you have lost your private key (nsec), we cannot help recover it. The NIP-05 identification process does not (from our end) require the private key. We have no way of recovering a lost private key.
A lost or compromised private key would require you to create a new Nostr account and go through the identification process over again.
All free identifications use our default @NostrAddress.com
domain.
Our
premium plans
by default use their own unique subdomains, dependent
upon the subscription (ex: purple.nostraddress.com and
onyx.nostraddress.com).
However, vanity domains are also included
for our subscribers, as follows:
Purple plan
domains
If you've subscribed to one of our premium plans you can manage the subscription here.
If you've subscribed to one of our
premium plans
and you've canceled the subscription here, the identification with the vanity
domains will be automatically disabled at the end of your subscription
period.
However, your account will automatically fallback to our free
address @NostrAddress.com domain, which you can switch to in the NIP-05
address section of your Nostr client.
If you've subscribed to one of our
premium plans
you will gain access to our premium Nostr relay.
The
premium relay is limited users, all who have a paid subscription. The premium
relay is therefore faster and free from spam!
Once subscribed, your
pubkey will be automatically allowed access to our paid relay.
If you've subscribed to the
Onyx plan
you will be able to select a vanity domain for an email
alias.
This will turn your username into an
email forwarder using one of the ten vanity domains you select at checkout,
which will pass on emails sent to it to the email address used when
subscribing.
The email forwarder will be automatically set up and
will point towards the email address you use during checkout with Stripe. Upon
set up, you will receive a notification from SimpleLogin to confirm your email
address for the the alias's mailbox.
We respect your privacy! We can
not read emails sent through email forwarding.

The NIP-05 is designed to identify users rather than verify them, serving primarily to aid in sharing contact information or conducting searches.
There are exceptions for individuals or entities associated with a reputable domain, such as a company or project, who can use NIP-05 as a form of endorsement of their connection to that domain and its associated organization, thereby establishing a degree of trust.
That said, our identification service still allows for a "verified" checkmark to load on your account across Nostr clients.
Nostr represents a streamlined protocol that facilitates the creation of a social network that resists censorship on a global scale. Here's a deeper dive into what makes Nostr stand out:
At its core, Nostr hinges on the use of straightforward and adaptable event objects, formatted as raw JSON, paired with conventional elliptic-curve cryptographic methods for key management and message signing. Communication is exclusively conducted over websocket connections between the client and relay nodes. This simplicity bolsters the ease of developing clients and relays, encouraging a rich diversity of software.
Nostr's architecture circumvents dependency on a centralized cluster of servers for data transit or storage, enhancing its robustness. The system is designed with the expectation that relays may come and go, thus permitting users to freely publish to and switch between an array of relays as they see fit.
With public-key cryptography at the heart of Nostr user accounts, the authenticity of messages can be confirmed with ease, ensuring they originate from the claimed sender.
Nostr stands as a foundational protocol, akin to HTTP or TCP/IP—an open standard that allows for broad, collaborative development. Distinctly, Nostr is neither an app nor a service requiring signup.
In today's landscape, social media is a crucial conduit for the flow of information worldwide. Yet, the prevailing systems of social media are fraught with issues:
