FAQ

How does this relate to firstbits?

The concept is an extension of firstbits that allows:

arbitrary alias names, does not require to vanitygen the alias
various payment methods (multisigs, pay-to-contract) instead of just one static address
revokation and updates possible (updates by a future extension, to be defined)
certificates allow for many additional use-cases

Differences to firstbits:

lookup and verification requires only UTXO set
