About:
What is tezos domain?
Tezos Domains is a distributed, open, and extensible naming system using the Tezos blockchain.
The main function is to translate a meaningful and user-friendly alias to its corresponding Tezos address and vice versa. This translation is globally consistent so that all users see the same address for a given alias.
How much does a Tezos Domain cost?
The pricing of domains depends on the length:
five-letter domains and longer cost 1 per year.
four-letter domains cost 25 per year.
three-letter domains cost 100 per year.
The initial auction period may drive the prices of popular domains higher. The higher price will only be paid for the first year. Renewals for the following years will have standard pricing.
Why auctions?
To ensure fairness when distributing domains when we launch.
Without auctions, people could spam the network with thousands of automatic registration requests within minutes from launch. The default auction period will only take 3 weeks from start to finish because we want to open Tezos Domains to direct registrations as soon as possible.
What kinds of names can be registered?
Domains that are 5 characters or longer (not including the top-level domain .tez) can be registered at the moment. 3- and 4-letter domains registration will also open soon. We currently only allow names with Latin characters, numbers, and hyphens. International (Unicode) names are a strong possibility in the future though.
How can I add an avatar to my domain?
You can use Gravatar to add an avatar to your domain. To do this, simply:
After signing in to Gravatar, click on View rating next to your avatar.
Copy the e-mail hash. For example, if the page says "Email Hash: 8a983da4c80a708808922ae23413bc78", simply copy the value "8a983da4c80a708808922ae23413bc78".
On the detail page of your Tezos Domain, click Edit and then open the Additional Data list.
In the Add new key picker, select Gravatar Hash and hit Add key. Then paste the hash in the Gravatar Hash field and save the domain

Naming for wallets

Tezos names are FA2-compliant NFTs that you own and control. Just like cryptocurrency, your names are stored securely in your wallet and only you can manage and move them.
Open-source & cryptographically secure
Domain names are stored on the Tezos blockchain. Audited, open-source smart contracts ensure that sending funds to a Tezos domain name is as secure as sending to a regular address.
Unlimited subdomains
Create unlimited subdomains under your Tezos name (like something.Alice.Tez), and even lend them to other people!
Public profile
Attach publicly visible profile information to your Tezos name, like your website URL, a physical address, or links to your social media profiles.
Decentralized websites
Get ready for Web 3.0. Use a Tezos name you own to point to a decentralized website of the future.
