For context, the example string was : ecdsa-koblitz-pubkey:1LGpGhGK8whX23ZNdxrgtjKrek9rP4xWER I suspect this is a kind of place holder for the prototype? IIRC this would not be a valid URI according to RFC 3986 [1] as you normally have a second colon e.g. pubkey:ecdsa-koblitz-bitcoin:1LGpGhGK8whX23ZNdxrgtjKrek9rP4xWER (I may be wrong on that) In any case, great work!
