Re:Ask HN: Keybase Alternatives? by CalmStorm on Thursday May 07, 2020 @01:51PM (#23105890)
I have been working on this decentralized key-value database: https://github.com/kevacoin-project/kevacoin Together with W3C's draft Decentralized Identifiers (DID: https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/), it could provide a decentralized alternative.

Not sure what is the best way to verify Twitter/Github account though. This has to be managed by users themselves. E.g. one user posts a proof in the Twitter account, the other user verifies the proof by checking the proof against the public key posted in the database.

Take a look of GunDB for DB?

Also for binding social account -- maybe take a look of https://Maskbook.com & https://github.com/DimensionDev/Maskbook - able to send encrypted post/comment on fb/twitter etc
