Edit: ah you up an encrypted private key. I guess it gets decrypted live in your browser, without touching their network, if you trust keybase.io's JS. Whether you do indeed trust keybase IO's JS (it's OSS, yaay, is your browser running exactly what's on GitHub though?) is another matter.

#64Love the service. I've invited few friends (from the IT industry) and nobody ever joined. I guess there aren't so much paranoid/gpg-aware people. So I have 10 invites to give. Let me know.

You don't have to run it in the browser, either; you can just install the command-line tool via NPM and know exactly what code you're running.
