Sorry Vítor, can you explain with a little more detail how is that possible?
I have an IP... Then what?

Imagine having a replaceable event in Nostr that includes a tag for your IP and a dtag for a subdomain of your username.
Then, with browser support, we could do a nostr://dTag.npub1.../ loads that event and redirects the user to your IP.
The DNS minimalism grows stronger. Imagine challenging the domain server hegemony, from such an out of the blue surprise tech as nostr. Things are cool, tech optimism is real!
So it would act as a CNAME or an Alias effectively?
Ok I gotta look into what those nips are. I don't know enough.
Has anyone created this infrastructure yet?
not yet, but we are waiting for somebody to go deep into it. nostr:npub1nlk894teh248w2heuu0x8z6jjg2hyxkwdc8cxgrjtm9lnamlskcsghjm9c and I tried a kind:30053 for DNS records many months ago. The goal back then would be to not have a relay list with domain names, but a relay list with pubkeys that in turn point to IPs. Maybe he is still offering that event for his relays. We just never really went for it.
Very interesting.
I would give it a go but:
1. I can barely understand anything about nostr. There's still quite a learning curve for me.
2. I only just started my relay yesterday and I can't even get that working properly yet.
And funny enough, one of the problems I have is cloudflare dns.
Get rid of Cloudflare:

The modern internet is totally corrupt.
Current 30053 records point to old IPs. I can create new 30053 records if you want to play..
