Unstoppable Domains \u2014 a prominent provider of Web3 domains \u2014 recently expanded its offerings by incorporating traditional \u201c.com\u201d addresses.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This move marks the first instance of merging conventional Web2 domains with the evolving Web3 domain space. This integration aims to seamlessly connect the existing web infrastructure with the new, allowing users to engage with both types of domains on a single platform.<\/p>\n
Integrating .com domains with blockchain technology goes beyond a technical achievement; it\u2019s an effort to enhance user adoption and streamline the overall user experience. <\/p>\n
The well-established familiarity of .com domains, deeply rooted in internet history, serves as a bridge for users transitioning into the blockchain realm, making adopting blockchain technology more accessible and inviting for a broader audience.<\/p>\n
Unstoppable Domains CEO Matthew Gould told Cointelegraph: \u201cEvery wallet needs a domain to improve UX [user experience] for crypto. Otherwise, crypto adoption will be slower, just like internet adoption would have been slower if they used IP addresses instead of domains.\u201d<\/p>\n
This integration enhances individual experiences and addresses the broader industry need for a smooth transition from the traditional web to the decentralized Web3. <\/p>\n
A spokesperson for Freename.io \u2014 a Web3 domains platform \u2014 told Cointelegraph, \u201cSurely the familiarity of .com domains plays a significant role in making blockchain technology more accessible to a broader and already existing audience. This is because .com is the most recognized and indexed TLD in the Web2 industry.\u201d <\/p>\n
A top-level domain (TLD) is the final segment of a domain name \u2014 located after the last dot \u2014 used to specify a website\u2019s category or country. Examples include .com, .org and country-specific endings like .uk or .jp.<\/p>\n
