ENS Domains Powering Major Web3 Ecosystem
ENS Domains Powering Major Web3 Ecosystem
🔑 Web3 Identities Unlocked
The Ethereum Name Service (ENS) has announced that one of the largest ecosystems in Web3, Uniswap, has adopted ENS usernames for its platform. ENS domains are being positioned as open, interoperable identifiers for the internet, allowing traditional Web2 domains to become cross-platform usernames within the Web3 ecosystem. ENS has also integrated with 3DNS, enabling domain owners to receive crypto payments, interact with DApps, and manage their domains on Layer 2 networks via a Layer 1 gateway to avoid high gas fees.
One of the largest ecosystems in Web3 has its usernames powered by ENS Uniswap understands the need for open, interoperable identifiers on the internet If you’re a project in Web2 or Web3 looking to create a username system, ENS is the solution!
Say goodbye to 0x addresses And hello to uni.eth usernames 💫
We've added ENS capabilities to domains on 3DNS, this means: • Turn your domain into your Web3 identifier • Receive crypto payments to your domain • Your domain can now interact with DApps • Manage your domain on an L2 via a L1 gateway, no more high gas fees 3DNS 🤝 ENS
What if I told you that your traditional Web2 domain could become a cross-platform username within the Web3 ecosystem? With ENS & 3DNS, your domain isn't just a URL address—it becomes a bridge to interact, transact, & establish your identity in web3. Let's talk about it 🧵
🌐 DNS Meets Web3
**ENS partners with DomaProtocol and D3** to enable traditional DNS domains (.com, .ai, .xyz) to function as native ENS names. **Key features:** - Use existing DNS domains as Web3 identity - Map domains to wallet addresses and onchain profiles - Set standard ENS records like any .eth name - Bridge Web2 domains to Web3 seamlessly **Current status:** - Available now on Ethereum testnet - Mainnet and Namechain support coming after community feedback **What this means:** Millions of existing domain owners can now use their .com or other DNS domains as their Web3 identity without buying new .eth names. [Learn more about the integration](https://ens.domains/blog/post/d3-doma1/) Join the discussion Thursday at 11am EST for roadmap details.
