+Secret Events
+-------------
+`draft` `optional` `author:shafemtol`
+
+A secret event is an event with encrypted contents and no distinguishable
+metadata apart from its `kind`, `created_at` value and the length of its
+contents. Its `pubkey` is a unique key not used on any other event.
+
+A stored secret event has kind `9993`, while an ephemeral secret event has kind
+`29993`.
+
+`content` MUST be the base64 encoded string of the ciphertext with no added
+whitespace. The raw ciphertext MUST be indistinguishable from random binary data
+to anyone except those who have the secret to decrypt it. The length of the raw
+ciphertext MUST be on the form `5n * 2**k`, where `n` is in `(12,14,16,18,21)`
+and `k` is a non-negative integer. Equivalently, the length of the `content`
+string MUST be on the form `8n * 2**k`, with no base64 padding.
+
+`tags` SHOULD be an empty list.
+
+`created_at` SHOULD be generated independently of any timestamp within the
+encrypted data.
+
+A relay MAY explicitly indicate support for this NIP as per `NIP-11`. If it
+does, it SHOULD check for and reject secret events that do not meet the
+requirements given in this NIP. In particular, it SHOULD reject secret events
+where `pubkey` is known to be already associated with another event, where
+`content` is not a base64-encoded string with a valid length, or where `tags` is
+not empty.
+
+
+Rationale
+---------
+
+The purpose of secret events is to enable storage and delivery of secrets with
+minimal public metadata. Applications include secure messaging and storage of
+private notes and settings.
+
+Restricting content length to a small set of allowed values limits the leakage
+of information about message size. The parameters are chosen such that for sizes
+down to 52 bytes, the maximum overhead is 16.7% and the average overhead is
+7.5%. By making the length a multiple of 5 bytes, no characters in the base64
+encoding are wasted on base64 padding.
