Subject: Sync wallet state across devices via encrypted Nostr events
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Persist wallet state (addresses, utxos, history, indices, fees) as a NIP-44
encrypted, parameterized-replaceable event (kind 30078) addressed to self on
relay.coinos.io. The Nostr identity is derived from the same seed (NIP-06), so
no extra secret. On load we pull the latest state from Nostr — a device with
no local cache gets full state without re-scanning, and another device's
updates propagate — using savedAt to keep the newest copy. localStorage stays
as the instant/offline cache; state is published (debounced) on every change.

(Relay note: added kind 30078 to the strfry write-policy allowlist on prod.)

+// Encrypted cross-device state sync via Nostr.

+// The wallet's Nostr identity is derived from the same seed (NIP-06,
+// m/44'/1237'/0'/0/0). Wallet state is encrypted to ourselves (NIP-44) and
+// published as a single parameterized-replaceable event (kind 30078, NIP-78)
+// to relay.coinos.io — so any device with the seed can pull the latest state
+// without re-scanning, and the relay only ever keeps the newest copy.
