- soult 16y agoYou could use DNS to map from a domain to a bitcoin address. In the Bitcoin forums people are actually working on a way to map email addresses to a bitcoin address. However, using IP addresses for Bitcoin transfers is insecure because you are vulnerable to MITM attacks (you wouldn't do online banking over a non-SSL connection, would you?) and because the IP addresses of the sender and the receiver will be known by each other.
