Verify Your Nostr Profile with NIP-05

Secure your identity on Nostr by linking your PlebName to your Nostr public key. Follow these two simple steps to complete verification.

  1. Step 1: Register your PlebName and embed your Nostr public key (npub) on the Bitcoin blockchain. Learn how at plebnames.org.
  2. Step 2: Open your Nostr-compatible wallet and set yourname@pleb.name as your NIP-05 identifier.

Once both steps are complete, your Nostr identity is anchored on Bitcoin and recognized across all Nostr clients - ensuring no one else can claim your username.

Why Verify with NIP-05?

  • Proof of Ownership: Your name and npub are permanently recorded on Bitcoin.
  • Universal Recognition: Works seamlessly on any Nostr client that supports NIP-05.
  • Community Resilience: Open, on-chain verification makes any censorship or misrepresentation by this or any other NIP-05 gateway immediately detectable - empowering users to switch to alternative portals if needed.
