const jb55 = "32e1827635450ebb3c5a7d12c1f8e7b2b514439ac10a67eef3d9fd9c5c68e245"
const damus = "wss://relay.damus.io"
const scsi = "wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net"
const relays = [damus, scsi]

const pool = RelayPool(relays)

pool.on('open', relay => {
	relay.subscribe("subid", {limit: 2, kinds:[1], authors: [jb55]})
});

pool.on('eose', relay => {
	relay.close()
});

pool.on('event', (relay, sub_id, ev) => {
	console.log(ev)
});

async verifyEvent(event)

Verify an event

Returns: true if valid signature, false otherwise

decryptDm(privkey, event)

Returns: decrypted content

encryptDM(privkey, pubkey, msg)

Returns:

{pubkey, publisherPubkey, conditions, token}

Where token is the delegation token, which is a signature from the authorizer of the delegation nostr:delegation:publisher_key:.

async createDelegationEvent(publisherPrivkey, event, delegation)
