Nostr-Specific Deterministic Private Key Generation from Ethereum Wallet Signature
--
`draft` `optional` `author:0xc0de4c0ffee` `author:sshmatrix`
This NIP ?is optional specification for Nostr clients to generate private key from deterministic Ethereum wallet signatures.
## Abstract
This specification provides an optional method for Nostr clients to generate deterministic private keys from Ethereum wallet signatures.
## Terminology
### a) `username`
Username can be either of the following:
`username` or `user@domain.eth.limo` or `domain.eth.limo` or `sub.domain.eth.limo`, where,
- `username` is a [NIP-02](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/05.md) compatible name,
- `name@domain.eth.limo` is a [NIP-05](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/05.md) compatible name,
- `domain.eth.limo` is [NIP-05](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/05.md) equivalent of
`_@domain.eth.limo`,
- `sub.domain.eth.limo` is [NIP-05](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/05.md) equivalent of
`_@sub.domain.eth.limo`.
> Note : `sub@domain.eth.limo` and `sub.domain.eth.limo` are NOT same ID as their signatures will be different.
## A) Username :
```
let username = "mypetname" || "mynip05@domain.eth.limo" || "domain.eth.limo" || "sub.domain.eth.limo"
```
1) `mypetname` is NIP02 compatible name
2) `mynip05@domain.eth.limo` is NIP05 compatible ID
3) `domain.eth.limo` is NIP05 equivalent to `_@domain.eth.limo`
4) `sub.domain.eth.limo` is NIP05 equivalent to `_@sub.domain.eth.limo`
~~Implementing clients should verify if generated public keys match NIP05 and NIP02 records.~~
## B) Password :
Password is optional value used in HKDF salt:
### b) `password`
Password is optional string value used in HKDF salt,
```js
let username = "name@domain.eth.limo"
let password = "horse staple battery"
let signature = wallet.signMessage(message)
let salt = sha256(`nostr:${username}:${password}:${signature.slice(68)}`);
if(!password || password == ""){
salt = sha256(`nostr:${username}:${signature.slice(68)}`)
}
let salt = await sha256(`eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${password?password:""}:${signature.slice(68)}`);
```
## C) Message :
### c) `message`
```js
let message = `Login to Nostr as ${username}\n\nWARNING : DO NOT SIGN THIS REQUEST FROM UNTRUSTED NOSTR CLIENTS.\n${checksum(wallet.address)}`
let message = `Login to Nostr as ${username}\n\nImportant: Please verify the integrity and authenticity of your Nostr client before signing this message.\n${info}`
```
## D) Signature :
Signature is
## C) HKDF :
We use HKDF with SHA256
### d) `signature`
Deterministic signature from connected wallet. Signatures are 65 bytes long, `bytes1(v)+bytes32(r)+bytes32(s)`.
```js
import { hkdf } from '@noble/hashes/hkdf';
import { sha256 } from '@noble/hashes/sha256';
import * as secp256k1 from '@noble/secp256k1';
let signature = wallet.signMessage(message);
```
### e) `HKDF`
HKDF-SHA-256 is used to derive 42 bytes long hash key.
`hkdf(sha256, inputKey, salt, info, dkLen = 42)`
- `Input key` is SHA-256 hash of signature bytes.
```js
let inputKey = await sha256(hexToBytes(signature.slice(2)));
```
- `Salt` is SHA-256 hash of following identifier string. `signature.slice(68)` is hex `s` value of signature, last 32 bytes.
```js
let salt = await sha256(`eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${password?password:""}:${signature.slice(68)}`);
```
- `Info` is string with following format.
```js
let info = `eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${address}`;
```
- `Derived Key Length` is set to 42. FIPS 186/4 B.4.1 require hash length to be >=n+8 where, n is length of final private key. (42 >= 32 + 8)
```js
let dkLen = 42;
```
- `hashToPrivateKey` function is FIPS 186-4 B.4.1 implementation to convert derived hash keys from `HKDF`to valid `secp256k1` private keys. This function is implemented in js `@noble/secp256k1` as `hashToPrivateKey`.
```js
let hashKey = hkdf(sha256, inputKey, salt, info, dkLen=42);
let privKey = secp256k1.utils.hashToPrivateKey(hashKey);
let pubKey = secp256k1.schnorr.getPublicKey(privKey);
```
//let username = 'name@domain.eth.limo';
//let optPassword = "horse staple battery";
// optional pin/password
## Implementation Requirements
//let address = wallet.getAddress();
// get checksum'd address from eth wallet
//let signature = wallet.signMessage(message);
// request signature from eth wallet (v,r,s)
// 0x + bytes1(v) + bytes32(r) + bytes32(s)
// 2 + (2 + 64 + 64) = 132 String length
- Connected Ethereum Wallet signer MUST be EIP191 and RFC6979 compatible.
- The message MUST be string formatted as `Login to Nostr as ${username}\n\nImportant: Please verify the integrity and authenticity of your Nostr client before signing this message.\n${info}`.
- HKDF input key MUST be generated as the SHA-256 hash of 65 bytes signature.
- HKDF salt MUST be generated as SHA-256 hash of string `eip155:${chainID}:${username}:${password?password:""}:${signature.slice(68)}`.
- HKDF derived key length MUST be 42.
- HKDF info MUST be string formatted as `eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${address}`
let inputKey = sha256(signature);
let salt = sha256(`nostr:${username}:${optPassword}:${signature.slice(68)}`); //68~132
// nostr:${username}:${signature.slice(68)}
## JS Example
```js
const secp256k1 = require('@noble/secp256k1');
const {hexToBytes, bytesToHex} = require('@noble/hashes/utils');
const {hkdf} = require('@noble/hashes/hkdf');
const {sha256} = require('@noble/hashes/sha256');
let info = `nostr:${username}:${address}`;
// const wallet = // connected ethereum wallet with ethers.js
let username = "me@domain.eth.limo"
let chainId = wallet.getChainId(); // get chainid from connected wallet
let address = wallet.getAddress(); // get address from wallet
let info = `eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${address}`;
let dkLen = 42; // 32 + 8 + 2
//FIPS 186 B.4.1 limit must be >=keylen+8
let message = `Login to Nostr as ${username}\n\nImportant: Please verify the integrity and authenticity of your Nostr client before signing this message.\n${info}`
let signature = wallet.signMessage(message); // request signature from wallet
let hashKey = hkdf(sha256, inputKey, salt, info, dkLen);
let privKey = nobleSecp256k1.hashToPrivateKey(hashKey);
//FIPS 186 B.4.1 @noble/secp256k1
let password = "horse staple battery"
let inputKey = await sha256(hexToBytes(signature.slice(2))); //skip "0x"
let salt = await sha256(`eip155:${chainId}:${username}:${password?password:""}:${signature.slice(68)}`);
let dkLen = 42;
let pubKey = nobleSecp256k1.getPublicKey(privKey)
let hashKey = await hkdf(sha256, inputKey, salt, info, dkLen);
let privKey = secp256k1.utils.hashToPrivateKey(hashKey);
let pubKey = secp256k1.schnorr.getPublicKey(privKey);
```
## Reference :
## Security Considerations
1) ERC-191: Signed Data Standard - https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-191
- Users should always verify the integrity and authenticity of the Nostr client before signing the message.
- Users should ensure that they only input their Nostr username and password in trusted and secure clients.
- Implementing clients should ensure ~~..private key/security~~
2) RFC6979: Deterministic Usage of the DSA and ECDSA - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6979
3) RFC5869: HMAC-based Extract-and-Expand Key Derivation Function (HKDF) - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5869
4) FIPS 186 B.4.1 - https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/fips/186/4/final
