Not a bad idea but I don't know if Gmail or other emails like it will allow so many characters as username. I'll try and see if it works.
They can be also used as twitter handles, again if they allow it i.e.
Topic: Using bitcoin adddress as email - page 4. (Read 3047 times)
It would be interesting to use bitcoin addresses as email address.
Try it out:
"yourbitcoinaddress"@bitcoinmessages.info
Eg:
[email protected]
Update:
Just to clarify this is not expected to replace your regular email. This can be used in specific cases like when you want to contact with someone whose bitcoin address is only known or in cases where you do not want to give your regular email address this can be an easy replacement. Eg:
>If you send bitcoins to some incorrect address, this can be used to send a message to the owner of that address.
>If you receive bitcoins from address and want to send some message to the sender this can be used.
>It can be used to register on untrusted services/websites.
Hope it clarifies the purpose of this service.
