it costs an average of 0.025 btc (~$60 US) to register a name which seems suspiciously expensive for something this new. Has anyone gone through the process of registering an Id and building an app yet? I would love to hear some unbiased feed back
- transitorykris 9y agoIt's taken hours so far to complete the registration. Transferring BTC to the Blockstack wallet first. Now waiting on the name registration to complete. Edit: transitorykris.id is now registered.. but doesn't appear linked to my keys.
- odinho 9y agoYou're burning that money. Noone gets it. If it costs 0.025 btc you're trying to register a very short name. Try a longer one, it's a lot cheaper. I've registered an ID. I did it through onename.com which pays the registration fee for you (as a way to get more people into it, it won't stay that way). Read the blockstack papers, they're the best info around and makes everything clearer. It is a bit hard to wrap heads around. I've been trying to unsuccessfully explain it many times, there's so many good ideas and so much potential there! (I'm unaffiliated btw, but have been following the project for a long time)
