[bitcoin-dev] BIP Number Request: Addresses over Audio

[Justin Newton]

Daniel,
   Thanks for proposing this.  I think this could have some useful use
cases as you state.  I was wondering what you would think to adding some
additional tones to optionally denote an amount (in satoshis?).

(FYI, actual link is here:  https://github.com/Dako300/BIP )
