     1  Clef
     2  ----
     3  Clef can be used to sign transactions and data and is meant as a replacement for gvnt's account management.
     4  This allows DApps not to depend on gvnt's account management. When a DApp wants to sign data it can send the data to
     5  the signer, the signer will then provide the user with context and asks the user for permission to sign the data. If
     6  the users grants the signing request the signer will send the signature back to the DApp.
     7    
     8  This setup allows a DApp to connect to a remote VNT node and send transactions that are locally signed. This can
     9  help in situations when a DApp is connected to a remote node because a local VNT node is not available, not
    10  synchronised with the chain or a particular VNT node that has no built-in (or limited) account management.
