Keybase Integrations

[jbenet]

Some possible keybase.io integrations

• verify ownership of specific keys (think through with keychain)
• use keybase as a unixweb namespace /keybase/jbenet/ like dnslink.

Relevant anouncement today from keybase. How do we go about getting them to use IPFS for the transport layer?

And issue on their client to ask about IPFS support. keybase/client#1893

👍

I also see some overlap between keybase and IPFS. I think some coordination and collaboration would be great. Because otherwise there will be duplicate work. @jbenet, have you tried to get into the contact with them?

[flyingzumwalt]

Have there been any conversations about making keybase filesystem backed by IPFS?

[flyingzumwalt]

Oops. Now I see that @pipermerriam's comment above points to that conversation.

the whole keybase keychain is a merkle structure, guess it just needs a codec and a seeder
