A Bike With a Public Key: using Nostr to make a connected vehicle an independent cryptographic peer, not an account controlled by a vendor cloud.
Pave bikes use their own Nostr identities to receive encrypted, giftwrapped commands for unlock, ownership transfer, access sharing, recovery, and acknowledgements. The talk covers NIP-44, NIP-59, replay protection, sequencing, BLE fallback, and push-assisted sync.
An automotive engineer that's hooked on building freedom tech. So far this year I've been to SEC06 in Madeira, helped bring peer discovery via Nostr to FIPS, and ran a public voting session using the Nostr-based, auditable voting system that has been developed as an offshoot from SEC for the Green Party in Wandsworth, London.
