NIP-19: Names people can share

npub, note, nprofile, nevent and naddr turn keys and references into checksummed strings.

Implementation

Coax encodes and decodes the NIP-19 forms, including bounded TLV references and relay hints. Project pages use the public forms.

Example

A public example runs through the shared NIP-19 decoder, including checksum and output-size refusals.

What remains

A checksum catches damaged text. It does not authenticate a person, relay hint or referenced event.
