.Crypto domain gains attention
Based on the Ethereum blockchain, the .crypto domain was initially introduced last year in Oct 2019 by the Unstoppable Domains firm. With this domain registry, users usually connect a particular cryptocurrency address with the domain they own. The well-known Opera Browser integrated with the Unstoppable’s .crypto web domain last time. Now, various cryptocurrency exchanges have also started thinking about using the .crypto blockchain domain. This means that the .crypto domain is getting wider attention in the industry.
The firm “Unstoppable Domains” is backed by Tim Draper a top blockchain investor. The firm has many popular domains such as myetherwallet.crypto, Switcheo.crypto, meltemdemirors.crypto, and Kyber.crypto. These domains are among the most famous ones. Till now, the blockchain domain company has more than 200,000 domains registered on its platform and is looking forward to adding more to its platform in the future.
