It’s time bitcoin had a way to specify human-readable names for payment instructions.
LN Address has demonstrated the utility of such names, but it’s time to take it beyond just lightning and remove the dependence on HTTPS/CAs.

Could this support bip47 reusable payment codes? Would love to lessen the dependency on paynym.is "nameserver"

Yep! Just gotta define a bitcoin: URI query parameter. Best thing is you can even do both - one URI/name that resolves to lightning + on chain + BIP47….. sender will just pick what they support and pay it!
That's great. What do I call this? Is there a bip number?
