Keymoji: Making normies create & remember secret keys.
Yes, it's a stupid idea. Yes, it's something you would never do for a bitcoin address. Yes, it kinda supposes key-rotation will a thing at some point. Yes, it needs to be combined with a great "login"-flow for other apps (which I'll share this week 😉) But, It puts keys in the minds of normies. Literally. (insane how fast people can remember even randomly created Keymoji's in my tests) It doesn't hide nsecs in honepot-bunkers or behind email-looking sign up flows. It doesn't use the English-only 12 words seed phrase. It avoids clipboards and even if users are stupid enough to save a screenshot of the emoji's, it's only one part of the key. The lazy way is (to let the app generate the emoji's + line for you) is the most secure way.
