# Address Lookup

> Resolving Namoshi names to Citrea and multichain addresses

The most common use case for Namoshi is resolving a human-readable name like `nemo.btc` to a machine-readable address.

## Resolving Citrea Addresses

To get the Citrea (EVM) address for a name, you can use standard libraries like Wagmi or Viem.

### Using Wagmi

The `useEnsAddress` hook can be used to resolve names on Citrea Mainnet.

```javascript theme={null}
import { useEnsAddress } from 'wagmi'
import { normalize } from 'viem/ens'

export const Name = () => {
  const { data: address } = useEnsAddress({
    name: normalize('nemo.btc'),
    chainId: 4114, // Citrea Mainnet
  })

  return <div>{address || 'Loading...'}</div>
}
```

### Using Viem

```javascript theme={null}
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'
import { citrea } from './chains'

const client = createPublicClient({
  chain: citrea,
  transport: http(),
})

const address = await client.getEnsAddress({
  name: 'nemo.btc',
})
```

## Multichain Addresses

Namoshi supports storing addresses for other blockchains (Bitcoin, Solana, etc.) as specified in [ENSIP-9](https://docs.ens.domains/ensips/9).

### Using Wagmi

You can specify the `coinType` to fetch addresses for other chains.

```javascript theme={null}
import { useEnsAddress } from 'wagmi'

export const MyAddresses = () => {
  // SLIP-0044 Coin Types
  const { data: bitcoinAddr } = useEnsAddress({ 
    name: 'nemo.btc', 
    coinType: 0, // Bitcoin
    chainId: 4114 
  })
  
  const { data: solanaAddr } = useEnsAddress({ 
    name: 'nemo.btc', 
    coinType: 501, // Solana
    chainId: 4114 
  })

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Bitcoin: {bitcoinAddr}</p>
      <p>Solana: {solanaAddr}</p>
    </div>
  )
}
```

<Note>
  Ensure your `citrea` chain definition includes the Namoshi contract addresses for these hooks to function.
