Asset Ticker list

Users need to agree on an identifier to set their addresses to a specific asset. At the moment, there are several efforts to standardise asset identifiers. We suggest this list to start.

In order for a starname to accept a specific crypto-currency, you need set the uri field. The uri field in the format:  "asset:" + asset_ticker
You should pick asset_ticker from the Asset Ticker Reference Table below and asset_ticker should be always lowercase in the uri field.
For exemple, to declare your Bitcoin address, you can set the uri to asset:btc in your name (the uri is stored in lowercase) 
{
         "uri": "asset:btc",
         "resource": "bc1qar0srrr7xfkvy5l643lydnw9re59gtzzwf5mdq"
}
When other users will look for your Bitcoin address, they will look for your asset:btc resource in your starname.
The canonical list of assets active with app integrating the Starname resolver is here: https://github.com/iov-one/asset-directory​
