The 1st infomemecial for $HNS! Here's how DNS works: Traditionally it was only possible to rent subdomains because ICANN's monopoly of DNS's root made it prohibitively expensive to own a TLD. Handshake changes that by making it possible for anyone to own any top-level domain!

HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT: Namebase/ has been acquired by Namecheap.com! While Namebase will continue operating as an independent lean startup, it will also benefit from Namecheap's invaluable resources. (A thread)

I'm personally really optimistic about Namecheap.com's acquisition of Namebase/. I think the core limiting factor for Handshake has been a lack of funding. With this event, the $HNS community will directly benefit from a massive $ boost through Namecheap! Exciting times :)

Oh hey, that's me! 🤝/

Hey Namers, I'll be speaking about $HNS this Friday at 9:00am MST as part of ETHDenver 🏔🦬🦄. If you're in the area, come swing by! ethdenver.sched.com/event/xTV6/dec…

I'll be presenting $HNS to the Ergo community tomorrow as part of their Privacy & Security Summit! The content is super non-technical, so if you're brand new to blockchain and/or DNS, it'll be perfect for you. Recording: youtube.com/watch?v=EGcp_T… Happy naming~

Have you ever wondered how the domain name system works? 🤔 Our next Ergo Summit video features johnnywu/ 🤝 (from Namebase/) explaining the centralized nature of domain names as well as a decentralized alternative to them: Handshake. #DeFi #crypto #blockchain #Ergo $ERG
