Lately I’ve been getting more into ENS domains (Ethereum Naming Service) looks like a pretty good business to be in. There has been some pretty big sales and brands such as Puma, Budweiser, 1-800-flowers, Hublot and others have been sporting a .eth. anyone here have any domains?
I’ve been loading up on some names (no brand names though, I’m not a fan of squatting) this is a good distraction from constantly checking the price. There are also some updates such as subdomains coming out in August, so I think it’s going to gain some traction from that.
What is wrong with squatting? If you can buy a domain name then sell it to Budweiser or Sony a few years later for three million dollars then more power to you.
I have 4 Unstoppable Domains and 1 ENS.
ENS is a brilliant idea. I have some personal ones for the future.
Got andywarhol.eth – I’m totally squatting tf why not? Someone important is gonna want it someday and I’ll happily sell it 😌
Wetandpuffy.ens
Yes, quite a few.
Super useful to have them for your main accounts when sending tokens – takes away a lot of anxiety of checking addresses.
My one question/concern about ENS is: say your name is Han Solo, and you buy HanSolo.eth, doesn’t that ruin any anonymity you had for the associated wallet?
Then anyone can track any transactions to/from that wallet as usual, but now they know that Han Solo’s the one doing business there? Doesn’t that expose you to more potential scammers and scoundrels?
This whole post reminds me of the dot com bubbl.
I have a few Unstoppable Domains. Basically the same thing I think, but you keep the URL permanently for a one off fee. No renewals
