We are happy to announce new alias API for any cryptocurrency, called DigitalName. http://digitalname.org
And a first service made with this API called XDN.IO It is a free DigitalNote XDN address alias service.
It uses JSON and DNS API:
JSON URL
http://xdn.io/digitalname/demo
http://xdn.io/name/demo
{
"digitalname1" : [
{
"name" : "demo",
"alias":"xdn.io/name/demo",
"xdn" : dddneZ6zEVGG83zNytTRC35c6GpnTMcodWhXRroH....",
"btc" : "1BitcoinAddressrCNLbtMDqcw6o5GNn4xqX",
"description" : "Demo xdn.io digitalname example",
"pgp-key" : "-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----"
},
]
}
TXT DNS Record:
digitalname1;
xdn: dddneZ6zEVGG83zNytTRC35c6GpnTMcodWhXRroH....;
btc: 1BitcoinAddressrCNLbtMDqcw6o5GNn4xqX;
description: Demo xdn.io digitalname example;
pgp-key : -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----;
It is very easy just to add JSON to any URL and to own your DigitalName.
DigitalNote wallet is the first software with digitalname support.

We will improve DigitalName aliases with DNSSEC and other security and usability features, but you already can use it with http://xdn.io and DigitalNote, or you can add DigitalName alias support to any cryptocurrency wallet.
Will inbox this to a interested friend, thank you
