Decentralized "Stegatar" for LN/NOSTR ?
https://github.com/RGGH/steg/blob/main/steg.py
Simple Python code encodes a lightning address into an image and can also decode it.
Idea:
Use your own image/avatar 'stored' on IPFS or similar decentralized network (preferably not as Ordinals!) to become your one and only avatar for all platforms.
A subtle lightning logo lets other "informed" users know there is an and address contained inside the image.
This is a rough idea, the main obstacle may be if writing the image to another computer/'server' alters the file in such a way that it cannot be decoded?
This could replace a QR code potentially? (if an app/extenison could read/decode the file and extract the LNURL/Key). It may also provide another layer of anonymity from web scrapers or data 'gathering'.
Any comments/thoughts?
