With a bitcoin address, the user can't send an unidentified payment. They can't send payment until they've been given a correct bitcoin address to send to.<br/><br/>What would be nice about sending by domain is you could visually verify who it's going to.<br/></div>I think that hiding the complexity of Bitcoin addresses from the casual user is a good thing. Barring that, it should be possible to embed an observable but unalterable message with address transactions. Is there some reason this is technically infeasible?<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><a href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=55.msg1596#msg1596">Quote from: satoshi on June 16, 2010, 12:15:47 AM</a></div><div class="quote">A more crucial issue is what if the browser isn't allowed to connect to 127.0.0.1:<br/><a href="http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63.msg1589#msg1589">http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=63.msg1589#msg1589</a><br/><br/>and if that's true, then what about that example freenet link that had 127.0.0.1 in it?<br/></div>I think you're misunderstanding the issue. My browser will always be able to go to 127.0.0.1 (barring some strange IE settings or a virus). If I type the address into the URL bar or click a link, it will work fine. However, it isn't possible to use Javascript to complete POST requests between domains (or ports on the same domain).<br/><br/>Try clicking this link:<br/><a href="http://127.0.0.1/">http://127.0.0.1/</a><br/>You probably don't see anything (unless you're running a web server on your system), but the browser happily tries to take you there.<br/><br/><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMLHttpRequest">XMLHTTPRequest</a> is what we were discussing in that other thread.</div>
