How about DNS on a blockchain?
- meowkit 1y agohttps://docs.ens.domains/learn/protocol/ https://docs.ens.domains/learn/protocol/ Supporting DNS all up should be possible but organizing the other decentralized services (compute, storage) is the hard part
- fruitworks 1y agoThe name service is easy, namecoin did it more efficiently than ENS a decade ago. The decentralized services need not be attached to some blockchain due to the resource constraints. But there are examples like Filecoin and such.
- charcircuit 1y agoThey already work in Brave too or for other browsers if you install a webextention.
- simonw 1y agoAka DNS where if you lose your passphrase (or get phished) you irreversibly lose control of that domain.
- deadbabe 1y agoBut the tradeoff is that it’s free right?
- HumanOstrich 1y agoThat sounds like an unnecessarily overcomplicated nightmare.
