Appreciate the perspective on this. When you say "ENS will never be resolvable via the global DNS namespace", is that a technical limitation or something else?

Appreciate the perspective on this. When you say "ENS will never be resolvable via the global DNS namespace", is that a technical limitation or something else? I'm curious so learning about how it works (or doesn't!), sounds like you have a lot of experience.
- rfd4sgmk8u 5y agoThere is no reason technical that ENS could not run root .eth servers and have these in the global DNS namespace. It would be a centralized service with decentralized records. I'm saying it wont happen because they wont let it. Its a closed club, and its a big deal when new TLDs get added. Johnny ethereum isn't allowed in.
- reginold 5y agoAh interesting hadn't realized it was a closed club. Heard it was some kind of delegate, DAO but that likely just means those with the money win right?

Unfortunately though, .eth already collides with the reserved 3 letter country TLD made for Ethiopia. > It would be a centralized service with decentralized records. That is the best way to describe ENS. Your .eth domain is still sitting on a single TLD managed by so called 'trusted' centralised key holders.
