Unlock Your Web3 Identity: Freename’s Game-Changing .etherlink Domain is Here!

Freename, a versatile platform for web3 namespaces across multiple chains, recently unveiled the introduction of “.etherlink” – a fresh top-level domain.

The launch occurs after the ICANN-approved registrar has linked up with the layer-2 blockchain Etherlink, as stated in a press release from Freename, which was shared with crypto.news on January 15th. Notably, Etherlink, functioning under Tezos smart rollups, serves as a decentralized L2 solution that doesn’t require permission.

Rolling out .etherlink signifies an important advancement within the realm of web3, as this new Top-Level Domain (TLD) symbolizes a substantial step towards streamlining cryptocurrency usage and fostering its widespread acceptance worldwide. With this integration, users can effortlessly establish and administer their web3 identities and digital assets in crypto.

In recent times, Unstoppable Domains and D3 are two platforms that have introduced domain names specifically designed for web3 usage.

Freename intends to leverage Etherlink’s domain name system to connect the traditional web (web2) with the decentralized web (web3). By implementing tokenization, traditional web domain names can be seamlessly integrated into the Etherlink network.

In a world where multiple blockchain networks exist, it’s crucial for on-chain users to have personalized solutions for digital identity. Gherardo Varani, the head of business development at Freename, stated that with the integration of Etherlink and the launch of .etherlink TLD, we are empowering both the Etherlink and Tezos communities to create secure identities that adapt as they progress on their Web3 journey.

Freename’s link-up with Etherlink comes after a series of notable advancements in their domain name system. In April 2023, Freename teamed up with EDA to debut a brand-new tool for constructing websites on the web3 platform.

Previously, in January 2023, Freename unveiled Web3 WHOIS – a trailblazing WHOIS service for web3 domains. This innovative tool comes equipped with a domain explorer that can search crypto wallets, domain names, and TLDs across multiple platforms such as Unstoppable Domains, the Ethereum Name Service registry, and Freename.
