Description
If keybase would let users add an ethereum adress, it could be used to verify the identity on the ethereum blockchain using oracle services like oraclize.
This would help a lot of smart contracts that would require a reputation system, for example querying reddit post karma, etc to provide a somewhat working proof-of-individuality
How this would work:
User adds ethereum adress
User calls contract with ethereum adress
Contract calls oraclize (or other oracle)
Oraclize calls keybase
Oraclize returns adress to contract
Contract can call oraclize to determine scoring using keybase data

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; start by mapping how Keybase user identity data is stored and exposed, then review the proposed oracle flow. Done would require an agreed design for adding an Ethereum address and verifying or retrieving Keybase identity data through an oracle.
