Consequences of TX1, BTCR, LTCR, and BLST as Methods about rwot5-boston HOT 4 OPEN

@veleslavs I was going to add an issue to your BIP proposal at https://github.com/veleslavs/bips/blob/Bech32_Encoded_TxRef/bip-XXXX-Bech32_Encoded_Transaction_Postion_References.mediawiki but issues are not allowed there.

What I wanted to propose was that you move the tx1- completely out of that BIP, and instead move it to you other BIP at https://github.com/veleslavs/bips/blob/wip/bip-XXXX-Revocable_Public_Key_Enrolment_Transaction_with_Optional_Cost.mediawiki

The reasoning is that there may be many uses for the bech32 chain+block+index besides for identity, and they may want a different prefix. I'd love to just be able to reference a chain+block+index BIP.

In addition, I'd like to propose in your ID BIP that you change it from tx1- to did:tx1: — this allows it to be a fully conforming W3C URN (Universal Resource Number) that makes for compatibility with other URN and URL tools.

If you open the issues in both of those, I'd be glad to propose them there. If there is another communication channel you'd prefer me to use to post those requests, let me know.

@ChristopherA Thank you for your feedback;
I've enabled issues on my GitHub Repository; however I think that this issue in particular may be best suited for comment on the PullRequest for the BIP:

bitcoin/bips#555

About Litecoin and other Blockchains; we have a dedicated field within the TxRef format for different blockchains; one only needs to add a new appendix for Litecoin. I may do this myself.

About the Human Readable Part Prefix. I chaining from tx1- to tx1: sounds quire reasonable.

Overall I propsoe we create a special IDRef format that includes a TxRef as a internal data format.

Please re-ask your question on the Pull Request; I will formulate a more complete reply there.
