Topic: Suggestion: dot-bit bitcoin address (Read 898 times)
White papers proposing anonymous public keys have already been published previously, adding something like this to that would be great.

Since users usually have to reveal their identity in order to receive services or goods, Bitcoin addresses cannot remain fully anonymous. For these reasons, Bitcoin addresses should only be used once and users must be careful not to disclose their addresses.
That's going to be a LOT of email addresses to remember.
The "dot-bit address" could be associated with a stealth address.

This sounds like a good idea to me, but only if you do not wish to be anonymous.
But I think your public key is generated from a hashed input, if I recall correctly. That may be the reason why.

Why not use Namecoin's blockchain to point to a bitcoin-addresses?
E.g. I own MYNAME.bit and point it to my bitcoin address. Wallets can implement this.
Even better if i can register [email protected]. This way remembering and keeping track of bitcoin addresses becomes as easy as using email.
