Keys for everyone!
Keybase maps your identity to your public keys, and vice versa.
"Hello World" in Keybase
keybase signup # or `keybase login`
keybase prove twitter # connect a twitter account
keybase prove hackernews # connect hacker news
keybase id nedmike@reddit # lookup by reddit
keybase encrypt max -m "Hello, max..." # encrypt!
# Using the new Keybase filesystem
echo "Hello world" > /keybase/public/myname/hello.txt
# End-to-end encryption
echo "Let's kiss" > /keybase/private/myname,friendsname/hi.txt
For the next few weeks, Keybase installation requires an invitation code. Join up.
The Keybase filesystem
Keybase just announced the Keybase filesystem, #1 on Hacker News! Some testers are getting special binaries that include KBFS functionality. If you're interested, read more.
And what about the website?
Keybase.io is also a Keybase client, however certain crypto actions are limited.

Welcome to Keybase
Keybase is a directory of people and public keys.
In a nutshell, Keybase lets you get someone's public key and trust it, without meeting in person or trusting a "web of trust."
