That's "application layer" stuff. DNS just provides a key-value store. So yeah, you can make a convention for how to embed a magnet link into the record. It's all about how apps interpret the value you put in.

Thanks for the reply and it's clear now. So it's kinda like namecoin that we can put anything we want into the record.

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

With bitshare DNS, we can have a secure p2p network for naming. But if I want to put up some static web content, I still have point of failure risk as I need to point my DNS to an IP address. Some example risks:

. IP address banned.
. Attack on this IP.

Can we set up something backed by torrent and bitshare DNS? Something like twister(http://twister.net.co/) and pirate bay plan(http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/01/08/pirate_bay_blockade_evading_client/).
