I had an earlier post about Chinese collecting bitcoin as payment and another post about Hong Kong free press collecting donations. One of the things was that they had to use the same darn address for collecting
BTC. Now if the addresses for donations were more recognizable I think things would be a lot easier for them.
About two days ago
I found this site that gives you a common name like BOB or BitcoinBull or CryptoBull for a bitcoin address. So, I am thinking that things would be easier for large organizations to collect money if they had recognizable names instead of a long string of numbers and letters. What do you think, would it make it easier, in terms of adoption?
anyone could use a vanity address it's not something new, for some reason they were never that popular, personally, I created my vanity address and never used it.
I would not support this idea because it would be too easy to copy off the vanity address by someone else.
Say you create an address 1Charity************* then there are still thousands of address combinations with the exact starting characters, as denoted by * here.
It would be really easy to impersonate such vanity addresses.
The optimum idea is to just promote charity's website where all the payment methods are listed.
