.onion name resolution with Blockstack
Hello, I have written a PoC for using Blockstack names to resolve hidden services. Blockstack is a portable decentralized naming system that currently runs on top of the Bitcoin blockchain. Similar to systems like Namecoin, each Blockstack node retains a 100% replica of all name state, including mappings between globally-unique human-readable Blockstack names and the .onion addresses they resolve to. The code and tutorial is hosted here: https://github.com/ jcnelson/blockstack-tor. It works by using the Python stem package to rewrite the target address of a stream from a Blockstack name to a .onion address (similar to how Jesse Victors' OnioNS system works). We plan to add support to the stdin/stdout protocol in Prop279 as well. Best, Jude Nelson -- *JUDE NELSON* *ENGINEERING PARTNER @BlockstackLabs*

Neat! In case you missed it, you could test this implementation with https://github.com/meejah/torns -- which functions similarly to the Stem / OnionNS thing but speaks to the actual plugins uning the Prop279 protocol over stdin/out. -- meejah

I saw that :) We'll be using that as the reference test harness. Best, Jude On Sun, Jun 11, 2017 at 2:31 PM, meejah <meejah@meejah.ca> wrote:
