Freename Enables On-Chain Tokenization of Traditional Web Domains
Swiss-based Web3 domain registrar Freename has introduced a groundbreaking integration allowing traditional domains like .com, .ai, and .io to be linked with crypto wallets and on-chain identities. This marks the first time mainstream domains can function across both conventional internet infrastructure and decentralized applications.
The innovation eliminates the need for businesses and individuals to rely solely on crypto-specific domains like .defi for blockchain transactions. A company can now accept USDT payments at mybusiness.com instead of sharing lengthy wallet addresses, while maintaining normal website and email functionality.
"Domains evolve from static pointers to dynamic multi-purpose tools," said Davide Vicini, Freename's CEO. "They now unlock wallets, payments, and smart contracts while preserving traditional web functions."
