Curious about this new BIP 353/Human Readable Names thing but don’t have a wallet that supports it yet? Want to see if you set it up right? Head over to

BIP 353 Human Readable Names Resolver

to resolve them to legacy addresses! It’s not just BOLT12, either, any reusable bitcoin addresses can go in there (but preferably ones that don’t cause on-chain address reuse)!

How did you set up your nick? I don't understand how It works.. but it's so cool 🎩

Get any domain, enable DNSSEC, add a Bitcoin: URI to username.user._bitcoin-payment.yourdomain in a TXT record. Done.

The BIP recommends Tor or VPN for private DNS querying. Was ODoH considered? I assume it was avoided because it tries to avoid HTTP, but in web clients of course HTTP is available

I mean I’d call Oblivious-(DNS-over-)HTTP a VPN/proxy? People can do that if they want.
