When I implement searching npubs via Plebnames like showcased at http://plebnames.org/?url=test would this pull request be merged?
Plebnames would provide completely decentralized, uncensorable and unique aliases for npubs. Only normal Bitcoin explorers like mempool.space or blockstream.info need to be accessed.
Basic example
When you search for a name in the top right search bar a lookup in the Bitcoin chain is made (via cors request to arbitrary Bitcoin explorers) to check if there is a Plebname with an attached Nostr npub. If there is one it appears in the search results.
Motivation
Other naming schemes are in some degree centralized and could be corrupted or attacked. Plebnames are as uncorruptible and uncensorable as Bitcoin, because they are stored in the Bitcoin chain and read via normal Bitcoin explorers. How it works is also described in the README.md of https://github.com/MichiSpebach/plebnames, it is a really simple protocol.
