Best way to validate public key

[dskvr]

Finding the need to validate public keys. Due to the two formats, curious if there is an existing, fool-proof (or suggested) method for validating pubkeys before I write my own.

Hmm, I don't know, I think you should parse them and check if they are 32 bytes, no?

key.match(/^[a-f0-9]{64}$/) || nip19.decode(key).type === 'npub' || nip19.decode(key).type === 'nprofile'

@dskvr did you ever figure out a way?
