Nostr is a messaging protocol with identity features. DIDs are an identity standard that can wrap Nostr keys to enable verifiable credentials and interoperability with the broader identity ecosystem.
Use cases that interest me:
- Integrations with Solid Personal Online Data Stores
- Consistent profiles across clients
- Long-term archiving of posts
- Distributed git (git without github)
- Verifiable credientals and distributed finance
