Hi there, I would like to share with you something that I worked on quite a while,
I am researching the "digital Identity" idea in the last year and I am trying to understand how to combined a
Blockchain identity with secure payments, there are a lot of interesting things out there and I believe that they can developed very nice over the years, (OneName, Bonafide, NetKi).
But for now I think that because there still no standardization between Bitcoin wallets\payments services (except the BIP's approach that solve some of the problems).
I am looking for a much simple solution for the Bitcoin addresses problem, the "copy /paste" action that we're doing in order to send money to someone is not a normal habit for a payments method and we need to changed that (Bip 070 motivation..).
To changed that basic action of copy/paste addresses I think that first we need to create some "safe zone" inside the Blockchain, here is a good example of a "Safe" address that belongs to the gambling service "Lucky", they gained lot of "reputation" because they are using the same addresses, its an epic battle here:
privacy VS
security, what is more important? I think that we can handle somehow with the privacy issue, security is more important…
Lucky addresses :

My direction is to combined
known addresses & CoinJoin ,I think that it could be a powerful solution for e-commerce payments, its just 2 little "add-ons" for the Bitcoin protocol but if we will create a good automation service for that, we can have a lot of "safe" zones around the blockchain that can be connected to each other in many ways or API's and without a copy/paste.

If I know exactly each business "Blockchain addresses" range, I can create a strong connections between the "dots", of course that we are risking those "special" addresses ,but securing a private key is securing a private key, the efforts of securing "3A1KUd5H4hBEHk4bZB4C3hGgvuXuVX7p7t" should be the same as securing "1iLoveYou13224DASD2Fdasdf".
