Now that the internet is essentially compromised (http://blog2.easydns.org/2012/02/29/verisign-seizes-com-domain-registered-via-foreign-registrar-on-behalf-of-us-authorities/ )
I am wondering if we could re purpose bit coin to secure DNS. The idea is that the domain is the currency and the transfers to IPs are akin to the currency changing hands.
In this way we can digitally secure a domain name.
Just a thought.
