Maybe at first we can do a simpler version with a "public link" (no unique link) we can use the same link and scan the same QR code

I understood it that way. Basically I am sharing my account invite link which is pseudo private (it is 40+hex numbers which is hard to guess but always the same)

Can you please describe the flow in a bit more depth so that I can understand? @filoozom feel free to also add your ideas, for example I would be interested if we could use a version of short codes?

filoozom commented 1 year ago

It might be possible to use short codes, but I'm not sure how secure my implementation actually is. For now I'd take the simplest route and have either a long link that contains all the useful info (maybe encoded in base64 or something to make it a bit shorter than a hex address) or some sort of on-chain registry to have shorter links. That would depend on the chain we'd use and the associated cost.

It was a response to @david-gauquelin suggestion to start with a non-unique link. So essentially the link being my ETH address.
