This is a solved problem in the authentication space. Short lived tokens backed by short lived keys.

A token is generated that has a timestamp and is signed by a private key with payload.

The public key is available through a public api. You throw out any token older than 30 seconds.

Unlimited IDs.

That's basically what you want.

Which either allows to use a fingerprint of the signing key to be used for the same.

Or would open the system up to the originally posted attack of providing ~an open relay.
