Would love it if more people tested this out! I plan on expanding it, including a decentralized option Smiley

Well, I got my mask link. Works like a charm.

Did you test it? I assume you got the PGP encrypted message and did you have it setup to forward to your email? It does this by default, to disable it, you can just do that via profile.

I am working on more options and features.

Thanks for testing Smiley
It worked for me.

I am making a keybase type concept right now! Hence why I have the guide states to add 2 separate public keys, one being profile and one being mask.

The mask part is a bit more anonymous, but regardless, I am looking to have all the features that keybase has but a bit more.

As of right now, (through mask), a guest can send a PM directly into your box (with the PM being encrypted via the public key). However, we do not store any private keys, so you have to use a 3rd party client to handle it. I suggested mailvelope because it makes everything easier and seemless.

*** you can create multiple masks and then delete them.
So for BTC Talk , i use this mask -> https://kbve.com/mask/4f33d09b7e6a50e547b3e0bd918f31c78c53eb55e440a51b4af4c25eec45c319
for other forums, I use other masks. Then using gmail filter, i can filter the encrypted messages that come from the masks into isolated folders.

I promise once you try it out, its pretty dope. You can directly decrypt the messages you get from your email account OR KBVE PM box, if you dont want it to forward.

How's it compare to keybase?

[MASK] - Proof of Concept for easy GPG/PGP communication

I am working on a way to make GPG/PGP communication between parties a lot easier Smiley

The first form will be known as mask and the second will just be a normal username-based system.

Here is a quick guide on setting up MASK ->
https://kbve.com/c/topic/1062-mask-guide-security-and-encryption-made-easy/

I am looking to see if people can test it out and give some feedback, before I move forward with the project.

Here is my MASK -> https://kbve.com/mask/4f33d09b7e6a50e547b3e0bd918f31c78c53eb55e440a51b4af4c25eec45c319

Side Note:
- It encrypts the message you are sending via your browser, so KBVE's server (#tr33 gateway) only ends up getting the finished encrypted message)
- KBVE does not store any private keys, you can use mailvelope to store all the private keys locally
- By default, any pm you receive, will also be sent to your email (PGP encryption gets forwarded).

Would love some feedback!

Side note: This is NOT A DARK MESSAGE / DARK SENDING / ANONY stuff, its just a secure way for you communicate between other members / mask users and its fairly simple once you set it up!

GPG > PGP , but if you arnt trying to run away from the NSA, PGP will be enough.

I am working on some other encryption methods and yes... I am working on a dope bonus features!


Why am I doing this? Well I am working on my own escrow system, but I am doing it all in small parts.
