HTTPS + CA is the most secure option. 📝 Original message:OK, my thoughts. My order of preference is: web service, server service, DNS TXT records. FirstBits + Vanitygen is out of the question in my mind. Not robust enough. I like web service since anyone can trivially set one up. You can provide a PHP script and a text file (that users edit) that people upload to XFreeWebHost and then they're instantly set to go. Setting up a web host is very easy nowadays- as easy as click click click. The other ideas are not so easy. Also HTTPS + CA is the most secure of the bunch. I'm curious to hear any other ideas too.

Aliases are a way to lookup bitcoin addresses so I can type genjix at genjix.net instead of 1jkddsjdskjwnk2j3kj232kjdkj
