1. support both IPV4 && IPV6?
2. support alias domains? like bts.bit -> iii.bit
3. support multi Address? abc.bit -> 1.1.1.1, 2.2.2.2, 3.3.3.3
4. can I sell sub domain?
   I am the owner of abc.bit, Can I sell apple.abc.bit to other?
5. Can I use sub domain without config?
  I am the owner of abc.bit, set it to 1.1.1.1.
  www.abc.bit is not set yet, can I use www.abc.bit -> 1.1.1.1?

Too many questions, thank you!

All of those are application-layer. In other words, yes it is all possible, that is part of the browser extension / conventions for how to use the record value.

Can I view a BTS DNS website on a smartphone or other device without the blockchain?
If not, could this be possible in the future?

Yes, just like electrum is a thin client for bitcoin, there will be thin extensions for your browser.

If two buyers buy same domain in the same block, which one will success? Depend on Miner or the one with higher price?
Ask this question because the codes reveals that the order are matched in wallet client.

Can BTS DNS be used for websites that promote terrorism, money laundering, hacking, child pornography, dogs & cats sleeping together, whatever the Outrage of the Week is on Fox/MSNBC?

Interested in more questions you guys have. Obviously those questions make assumptions I haven't explained yet, I'll get to that.

Will slowly bump the bounty until I figure out what it's worth.
