Its domain name registrar — Freename launches
Firm now offers real domain names alongside blockchain names.
Web3 naming platform Freename is now offering real domain names as an ICANN-accredited domain name registrar.
The firm launched by offering only web3 solutions, counting a naming platform that allowed people to create their own blockchain-based top level domain.
Earlier this year, it raised a $6.5 million funding round, became an ICANN-accredited registrar, and promised to marry the traditional DNS with web3 technology.
With the launch of its accredited registrar, it promises clients that they can use their fresh domain names in traditional ways (e.g., websites and email) and get web3 features, such as using them for wallet addresses.
When users search for a domain, they are given the option to register it in .com or other TLD, register it as a web3 top level domain, or register it as a second-level domain under existing Freename extensions.
