ValueDomain, a Japanese domain registrar owned by GMO, has recently started providing Ethereum Name Service (ENS) name resolution functionality and gasless DNSSEC for DNS domains. This integration allows owners of traditional DNS domains (e.g., .com, .net) to resolve their domains to Ethereum wallets. There are two methods to add ENS functionality: on-chain and off-chain, both supporting DNS names and DNSSEC integration. The on-chain method requires proving ownership by setting up a text record and sending proof to the Ethereum blockchain, incurring gas and network fees. The gasless DNSSEC method uses CCIP-Read to access names not on-chain, eliminating the need for on-chain proof of ownership. DNS owners can set up text records, and the DNS records will work automatically.
