Fred Hsu and Shayan Rostam have been in the domain business for a while. In fact, if you’re relatively fresh to the industry, you might not know who Fred is since he was ahead of your time: He was a founder of Oversee.net, the firm that ran DomainSponsor and the famous Domainfest events.

Through a weird chance encounter, he met Shayan Rostam, who has been in the registry business at a number of firms counting his own firm, Internet Naming Firm.

They started talking regarding their shared interest in domains and created D3, a business they hope can bridge web2 and web3, as well as disrupt domain marketplaces. On today’s show, Fred and Shayan talk regarding the fresh venture, and Fred has a teaser…a return of Domainfest?
