Does anyone think that due to how usernames work on the Fediverse, we might get some people using their real names as usernames? (kbin.social)

I'm thinking about how emails ended up becoming. Where our first email addresses were so wacky, and slowly we just wanted out real names.

no idea what happened but a few years ago there was buzz about a company called keebase which was to do identify verification across platforms.

it seems to have something to do with "blockchain" though so I never got much use from it because anything with blockchain smells scammy to me. maybe something like that (without bitcoin) which would be useful.
