That'd be a nightmare if .io got taken away. Handshake.org works to solve ICANN's TLD issue (they control the entire namespace) and charge like $185,000-250k for a gTLD Nobody really uses opennic and it has the same issues as ICANN "a single party controls the namespace" with naming on Handshake it's verified, with no trust going to a single authority. Handshake is a decentralized root zone file, how it should be. Check out Handshake.org (uses a coin to prevent sybil attacks) Namebase.io to bid on TLDS Nextdns.io (enable handshake) in the options Some good guides and a video here: https://dns.live/start.html https://dns.live/start.html Works on top of regular DNS and supports top 100k alexa domains to prevent abuse/theft I just bought a few TLDs DNS Live offers free hosting etc (ns/web) if you get a tld off of Namebase.io Sorry if I seem a little biased. A cool thing to play with though. The internet naming system should be way better especially with whatever this corrupt .org sale is to some illuminati Ethos Capital, ICANN selling .org to themselves? lol California just halted the .org sale in the spirit of an open and free internet. ICANN has too much power, and would have made over a billion on the .org sale.
