Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer products for associating a network identifier with a network address enable operations that may include: receiving a network identifier associated with a first network; obtaining an identification of a proof provider; sending, to the proof provider, a network address associated with a second network, wherein the proof provider is configured to generate a signed association of the network identifier with the network address using a private key of the proof provider; obtaining the signed association; and providing, to the second network, at least the signed association. The second network may be configured to validate the signed association and store the signed association.
