Cosigns
“Chris and Max have both technical depth and consumer design savvy, an ideal combination for a project like Keybase.”
“Because it's a Git, I can sync it, which is fantastic. And it's fully encrypted, end-to-end encrypted, which I really like.”
“Keybase, on the other hand, makes actually generating your PGP key a painless process in both a web-UI and a locally stored downloadable program.”
