We deleted discord. We built HNS chat. If you own a Handshake TLD or SLD, you can chat with us, or others, publicly or privately. Handshake TLD owners can even create their own chat rooms and communicate directly with their domain buyers. Check it out. namebase.io 🤝

The custodial legacy Namebase site is now closed. Unclaimed TLDs will expire. Unclaimed dollarydoos will be subject to unclaimed property laws. We will continue to renew previously staked TLDs that have currently registered domains. If you still have assets on the old platform and want to begin the recovery process, write us at [email protected]. 🤝

IMPORTANT NOTE for Staked TLD Owners and SLD Buyers. The registry relationship of previous TLD stakers is/was with Namebase. All of the SLDs that were purchased on these staked TLDs are available for claim at Namebase.io now, and many have already been claimed. In this case, the owner of those TLDs chose to delist the staked TLDs, rather than migrate to the new Namebase infrastructure. This action has implications, of which they were aware, and consequences for both the TLD owner and the SLD buyers. That said, if the TLD owner chooses to list the previously staked TLDs on the new Namebase registry, all of the benefits will be restored to both the TLD owner and the buyers of the SLDs on those TLDs.

One of Handshake's original ideas was incentivized gifting. The idea was simple: Sometimes giving something valuable away can make the entire network more valuable. We're bringing that philosophy to the new Namebase. TLD owners now have two different tools: Reserved Names Set aside names you don't want available for public registration. Protect brands, special names, community names—or simply save something for later. Gifting Know exactly who should have a name? Give it to them. Gift the registration for free. And with Irrevocable Domains, you can even gift the permanent mint. No registration cost. No mint cost. No renewals. No expiration. The most valuable domain in your namespace could be the one you give, and could even make the namespace more valuable for everyone. Incentivized gifting. An old Handshake idea, with some new infrastructure behind it. Live now. 🤝

Custom Pages are now live on Namebase. A TLD isn't just a collectible. It's a namespace. Build something with it. Brand your TLD. Tell people what it's for. Connect your community. Give people somewhere to search it. Give them somewhere to register. Then send them directly there. Owning the dot was step one. Building the namespace, step two. Live now. 🤝

30 days... Get your assets out of sunset.namebase.io now. End of an era. Beginning of another. 🤝
