Hi AvivB,

Something similar has been discussed here in BIP 353: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0353.mediawiki#dns-rather-than-http-based-solutions

Cheers,

Hi all,

I'd like to propose a new BIP titled "Well-Known Bitcoin Identity Endpoint."
The goal is to improve the user experience for sending on-chain Bitcoin payments by allowing wallets to resolve a Lightning Address into associated on-chain addresses and additional metadata.

The idea is to define a simple, HTTPS-based standard for retrieving payment and contact information via a .well-known endpoint,
generalizing the approach used by Lightning Address to support more payment types and identity metadata.

You can find the draft BIP here: https://github.com/aviv57/paysats/blob/main/bip/BIPXXX.MD

I’d appreciate any feedback or suggestions.

Thanks,
AvivB
