How does Minting Work?

How can I mint a domain with Freename?

mint a domain

Are you curious about the prevalence of .metaverse, .moon, .chain, .airdrop, .young, .free, .xxx, .layer, .hodl, .lambo, and .token at the end of user names?  

Website addresses in the Web 3.0 format deviate from the standard DNS format in important ways. A Web3 domain is a human-readable, human-chosen address that symbolizes your cryptocurrency wallet, serving as an alternative to an IP address that is easier to remember.

There wouldn’t be any of this without platforms like Freename.io. When it comes to translating domain names into blockchain addresses. This platform is recognized by DNS.

What is Freename.io?

With Freename.io, you may use dApps and blockchains with a username that is both human-readable and transferable between services. Due to the complexity of the cryptocurrency market, entry is often difficult for those who are not well versed in the technology involved.

First, we will look at crypto-based financial dealings. The wallet address is a lengthy series of digits and letters that is required to submit a Bitcoin payment. The fact that each cryptocurrency has its own unique contract address further complicates maintenance and further baffles newcomers to the crypto space.

Freename.io is an initiative to standardize Web 3.0 usernames to become the decentralized internet’s preferred protocol. Forget about keeping track of separate contract addresses for each cryptocurrency; with a Freename domain like “freename.dao,” you may accept all NFTs and cryptocurrencies in a single place.

For illustration, consider the following:

Let’s imagine your dinner date wants to reimburse you in cryptocurrency. The 42-character hexadecimal string that makes up your crypto address is displayed as “0xDC25EF3F5B8A177998338A2ADA83795FBA2D695E” in this example. For others who wish to send you cryptocurrency, this is the equivalent of your IBAN. Sharing a link to your Freename.io domain, such as “name.crypto,” which resolves to your wallet address, is as easy as typing a few characters.

Freename allows you to be able to mint any domain name of your choice. You can mint and register the TLD of your choice along as there is no prior registration. Other users who would love to register on your TLD are opening you to an opportunity to earn royalties. As soon as they register their domain on your TLD, you are eligible for up to 50% passive income.

Apart from being eligible to earn royalties, you can as well sell your registered or minted TLD or domain for even higher rates. These are how you can earn massively via the web3 domain and TLD.

Other benefits include:

To facilitate the receipt of any cryptocurrency or NFT, Freename provides human-readable domains for all your cryptocurrency wallets, websites, content hashes, and metadata. This way, your Freename.io domain can serve as your Web3 username, linking all your addresses and websites under one nickname.

It is “a distributed, open, and extendable naming system” that provides blockchain-backed, decentralized domain and search engine name resolution. Since Freename.io is decentralized, no single organization has authority over it. Because there is no central hub, Freename.io is more reliable and secure than centralized naming services.

5 reasons why you need a Web3 domain

Below, we will go through the top five reasons why you should get a Freename.io domain, from its enhanced capabilities (such as the ability to double as a wallet address) to its one-of-a-kind perk of never needing to pay renewal fees.

 No recurring renewal costs

Your Freename.io domain is yours to own and governs for all times, unlike standard .com domains, which require annual renewal payments. Once purchased, ownership is forever yours.

● Payments in cryptocurrency are always processed without a hitch.

You can stop worrying that your funds may vanish into thin air (pun intended). Use a Freename.io domain as your centralized username to store all of your cryptocurrency wallet addresses (which are comparable to bank account numbers and may look like this: 0xDC25EF3F5B8A177998338A2ADA83795FBA2D695E).

● The ability to connect to many chains

More than 275 cryptocurrencies and tokens are already compatible with your NFT domain, and this number is expected to grow. Now, irrespective of the blockchain network, navigating cryptocurrency transactions is a breeze. 

● Take charge of your Web3 persona

Having a stake in the new Internet will become increasingly vital as the globe shifts to Web3. If you own Freename.io, you may be assured that your online reputation will survive the arrival of the next big thing in computing.

Why mint on the Freename.io domain?

Freename is a platform that allows users to register and mint their own Web3 TLDs on whatever blockchain they choose. Top Level Domain, or TLD, refers to the text that comes after the period in a URL (in the case of name.crypto “.crypto” is the TLD).

You also can make your own version of your preferred Top-Level Domain Name System for the web3. Every time one of your Freename TLDs is used to establish a new domain, you’ll get paid. This is a unique option, unlike other web3 TLD minting platforms.

What are the benefits of registering a domain extension with Web3?

Branding: The importance of having a unique recognition in the Web3 space is important. You can get your own unique Web3 name. Get names that are particular to your brand or style. In addition, a Freename Web3 TLD trademark registration can provide you with global legal protection for your domain name and logo.

Royalties: Get paid to let other people use your TLD. There is an opportunity to earn passively through this means. It is now possible to become your own Web3 Registry with the use of Freename TLDs. You can activate royalties after you own a TLD to collect 50% of each domain registration made on your extension.

Web3 Identity: Your name serves as the umbrella under which all of your credentials, wallets, and NFTs are organized. You can use this type of NFT for online purchases and other Web3 features. These top-level domains (TLDs) and domain names can be created, minted, and used with Freename for usage in web 3.0 applications.

How to mint on Freename.io

Firstly, you have to create an account. Click on the profile icon on the top right corner with login inscribed under it. Then it will take you to a page where there is a login option with sign-up below it.

Click on the signup option and you will be directed to a page where you’d be asked to input some information like your first name, last name, email, username, and password, and then confirm the password.

Then, go on to register your account.

From there, you’d be able to access options like search, marketplace, and other valuable options. Once you have decided on the domain or TLD of your choice, Freename.io currently has options for minting on Aurora, BSC, Cronos, and Polygon.

Then you buy a TLD. You have to buy the TLD before you’d be able to either register or mint it. Once you have purchased the TLD of your choice either with funds from your MetaMask wallet or credit card, go to “portfolio and incomes.” You’d see a section, “TLD”, under this section, you can either choose to mint a single TLD or in bulk.

Conclusion: The importance of domain names in the Web3 industry Domain

Businesses rely on names, which are like pieces of real estate in the online world. They act as a gateway via which your clients can contact us. Domain names have never been more sought after or more crucial than they are now. For instance, in the blockchain space, NFT sales have risen in tandem with the popularity of online shopping in the United States. An online presence makes content available to the world’s 4.27 billion internet users.

Why do i Need a Wallet?

Freename domains are blockchain-based assets and would be minted and stored using a wallet. Users are required to mint and manage their domains using a Metamask or Coinbase-configured wallet. It must be a non-custodial wallet, meaning that one must own the private keys to the wallet in order to approve transactions via a signature.

To benefit from Freename Web 3 domains/TLDs, you must have a wallet. This is because Web 3 domains/TLDs are blockchain-based assets. Users can mint and manage their domains using Metamask or Coinbase-configured wallets.

Keep in mind that it must be a non-custodial wallet. You own the private keys to the wallet (in order to approve transactions via a signature).

Are the Domains Associated with ICANN?

ICANN does not manage freename.io domains. Freename.io believes their TLDs/domains must allow customers to operate independently. Freename.io wants to build a utility infrastructure, allowing customers to use their services for valuable and generative purposes. By leveraging blockchain technology, Freename Web 3 domains/TLDs have no centralized authority imposing rules and regulations.

What is a Wallet?

Every blockchain user requires a wallet in order to interact with the network. A wallet is essentially an account on the blockchain where transactions can be sent and received. It is also where one can store blockchain assets such as cryptocurrency or NFTs (non-fungible tokens). There is no personal information associated with a wallet and none is required to create one. A wallet consists of a public key and a private key. The public key can be safely shared with anyone who wishes to send assets to the corresponding wallet, however, the private key should not be shared and is the key to accessing the wallet in the event where access is lost or to create another instance.

A crypto wallet (cryptocurrency wallet) is software or hardware that enables users to store and use cryptocurrency. With cryptocurrencies, there isn’t any actual money to carry around in a wallet. They exist on the blockchain. Similarly to traditional bank transfers, crypto wallets enable users to send and receive cryptocurrencies, NFTs, etc.

A wallet consists of a public key and a private key. To receive assets, you share your public key associated with your wallet. You should NEVER share your private key.

  1. Connect your cryptocurrency wallet to Freename.io
  2. Request a withdrawal
  3. Receive request confirmation
  4. Receive withdrawal directly to your wallet.

Can i Transfer Domains?

Yes. The domain is stored in your cryptocurrency wallet and can be transferred by you after you have minted it. Access your portfolio, select the TLD or Domain you wish to transfer and type the recipient’s address. Afterwards, you must paste the OTP code you received by mail to confirm the transaction. Keep in mind that currently, it is not possible to import the domain that has been transferred, but it will be possible soon!

Yes. Domains are transferable ONLY after a TLD/domain has been minted and stored in a user’s wallet.

To transfer the TLD (or domain), the user must:

  • Access their wallet
  • Select the item they want to transfer
  • Enter the recipient’s address.
  • Confirm the transaction by pasting the OTP received by email

In the future, Freename.io will support importing domains that have been transferred.

What about Trademarks?

Registering a trademark on your Freename Web3 TLD will allow you to protect your web3 TLD and your logo worldwide juridically.

From the moment you deposit a trademark request, your web3 TLD will be protected worldwide for 6 months awaiting for the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IGE.ch) to confirm and register the availability of your TLD.****

A trademark is any symbol, phrase, or word that allows customers to identify a company’s goods or services. Freename is a web3 domain/TLD provider that also provides trademark registration.

A user must reach out to the trademark department to register a trademark. To get your trademark filed for review at the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property, a user must provide the following:

  1. Complete a Know your customer (KYC)
  2. A list of TLDs they wish to trademark
  3. Proof of payment

Once these conditions are met, it takes one week for the trademark to be reviewed and logo/TLDs to be provided with six months of worldwide protection.

Is Minting the same as Buying?

Purchasing a TLD (or domain) on Freename and minting it on the blockchain are two distinct steps. When you purchase a TLD (or domain), the transaction is recorded in Freename’s database and not on the blockchain. Minting a TLD (or domain) on the blockchain requires a second step: log into the user’s personal area, select the TLD (or domain) and press “mint TLD” (or domain): done! Don’t worry, once you have purchased a Freename domain, no one can take it away from you!

No. Buying and Minting a TLD/domain are two different things.**

Buying **is the process of recording a transaction on Freename’s database and not on the blockchain.

Minting is the process of pushing a user’s domain from Freename.io data onto the public ledger of a blockchain and into a user’s wallet. Giving the user full control over the TLD/domain.

It is very easy to mint a domain/TLD once you purchase it. Simply:

  • Log into your personal area
  • Select the TLD (or domain)
  • Press “mint TLD” (or domain)

What is Domain Minting?

Minting is the process of publishing a Freename domain (or TLD) on the blockchain via your wallet to gain full custody of the domain. This means that the only person that has control over the domain (or TLD) is the person who controls (has access to) the wallet.

Minting is the process of pushing a user’s domain from Freename.io data onto the public ledger of a blockchain and into a user’s wallet. Giving the user full ownership over the domain.

Minting on Freename.io is as simple as the following steps:

  1. Go to the Freename.io website
  2. Enter the TLD/domain you want to buy in the search bar
  3. Add the TLD/domain to your cart
  4. Go to checkout
  5. Create a Freename.io account
  6. Purchase the TLD/domain with cryptocurrency or a credit card
  7. Go to “portfolio and incomes.”
  8. Click on mint TLD/domain

What is a Domain?

A domain name is a string of letters and/or numbers that points to the IP address of the corresponding website. Generally, it is easier to remember a name than a long string of numbers.

A domain name is an address that people type into a browser bar to find a website. It consists of a Top-Level Domain (TLD), everything that comes after the dot, and the Second-Level Domain (SLD), everything that comes before the dot.

For example, “Freename.io” is the domain name, “Freename” is the SLD and “io” is the TLD.
