📝 Original message:Namecoin already has an id/ and a/ (alias) namespace for such use:

{ "name" : "id/pichler", "value" :
"\"BM-GtK6TiTtVo9toGVdk2zy3t4jGXZyZeMH\"", "expires_in" : 29397 },
{ "name" : "id/pigeons", "value" : "{ bitcoin:

{ "name" : "id/pisces", "value" :
"\"BM-GtK6TiTtVo9toGVdk2zy3t4jGXZyZeMH\"", "expires_in" : 32034 },
{ "name" : "id/plattler", "value" :
"\"BM-GtK6TiTtVo9toGVdk2zy3t4jGXZyZeMH\"", "expires_in" : 30999 },
{ "name" : "id/pope", "value" : "{\n \"bitmessage\" :
\"BM-2D7L1Suh1choaKt321Le3bS6PT6nxfWqpR\"\n}", "expires_in" : 29765 },

It's popular enough that it's been squat spammed by a few actors
recently, and several bitmessage IDs are there along with Bitcoin
addresses, etc.
