Does every wallet support OpenAlias?

Not all wallets currently support OpenAlias, but many popular ones for Monero, Bitcoin, and Litecoin do. You can find a list of compatible wallets here. If your wallet doesn't support OpenAlias yet and you'd like it to, consider reaching out to the developers of the wallet to request integration!

Do you log the domains I check?

No. This site is hosted on GitHub Pages and runs entirely client-side in your browser. However, the DNS resolvers used (Cloudflare or Google) may log your lookup request according to their policies.

How can I support this site?

If you'd like to support the upkeep of this site, you can donate via Bitcoin, Litecoin, or Monero to: cyphertoshi.com or tech1k.com via OpenAlias in a supported wallet.

Is this site open source?
