I think DNS is one of the top two most appropriate uses for blockchains. Besides the auctions and the TLD, what are the tradeoffs you're aware of between ENS and Namecoin? There's a part of me that feels like having One True Blockchain for everything sounds cool, but I also think Ethereum might be overkill for what is essentially a key-value store. Is there a formal ENS whitepaper with all the relevant high-level details in one document that my google-fu is failing to find, or are these web docs and the github code the best starting point right now? https://docs.ens.domains/ https://docs.ens.domains/
