- NetOpWibby 5y agoA project called Handshake[0] may be of interest to you. Namebase[1] is a popular on-ramp but you could also obtain your own TLDs via a desktop wallet[2]. There’s even a lightweight resolver[3] to access Handshake domains. The project is slowly gaining traction, what with Namecheap and Porkbun getting in on it too. - [0]: https://handshake.org https://handshake.org - [1]: https://namebase.io https://namebase.io - [2]: https://bobwallet.io https://bobwallet.io - [3]: https://impervious.com/fingertip https://impervious.com/fingertip
- donmcronald 5y agoI looked at buying one of these a while ago. The AML/KYC hoops you need to jump through to buy HNS are a deal killer for me. I'd literally pay 20x what they want if I could use a normal credit card.
- NetOpWibby 5y agoI've been KYC'd on Namebase since its inception so I'm all set. I do agree that the KYC requirements are trash. A while ago I figured out I could buy without KYC via MEXC and then send the HNS to ViaWallet.
