The idea would be for users to create a secure identity (key pair) within PrivateTalk, publicly sharing only the public key.
This would allow any user to send encrypted messages directly to that user using this public key. However, only those who have the private key saved can read it.
It would be a "super simple PGP-like" approach. What do you think? Does it make sense?
Comments and suggestions are welcome!
Your idea sounds good, but how would a member who receives the message know a private key?
I don't fully understand how this secret identity would work with bitcointalk messages, unless we are using some other way of communication.
If you can show some demo example that would be great.
The idea still needed to be developed further. But basically it would be like this:
1. Go to PrivateTalk and create a personal key. This personal key is made up of two parts: a public key and a private key.
2. Don't give the private key to anyone! You can put the public key in your Bitcointalk profile, for example.
3. If I want to send you a secret message, I go to PrivateTalk, create the message and enter your public key.
4. A link will be generated and sent to you via PM.
5. You enter the link and have to use your private key to open the message (password type).
What do you think of the idea?
