geti2p.net also has community registrars for .i2p domains and includes a built in hosts file of many of the sites, this involves a level of trust in the registries.

- rank0 5y agoThanks for sharing I’ve never heard of zookos triangle before. I’ve never looked into the crypto token solutions but presumably there’s still an issue of competing projects maintaining their own registries that would allow for domain collisions depending on which solution you use. Are there any in particular you’re fond of?
- beardog 5y agoI don't know enough about the alternatives to namecoin to comment on them - i don't think any of them are used as much as even namecoin was at its height (which was still not much, but at least Wikileaks was using it and OpenNic supported it at one time). ZeroNet still uses it, but ZeroNet is in questionable shape right now. Namecoin had issues with cyber squatting and spam, i would assume any alternatives significantly used would suffer a similar fate.
