Freename AG, the Swiss company redefining digital identity, has secured a patent for its decentralized naming system that lets users create, own, and monetize domain extensions on the blockchain.
The patent describes a platform where anyone can launch their own top-level domain (TLD) such as .sand or .sunshine and earn royalties whenever others register names under it.
By automating ownership and transactions through smart contracts, Freename removes the need for centralized registries and brings transparency to how digital names are managed. It’s a Web3 reimagining of the traditional DNS, empowering creators, brands, and communities to control their namespaces while generating ongoing revenue.
Freename’s patent establishes the framework for a self-governing, blockchain-native namespace, turning digital naming into a decentralized, revenue-generating ecosystem.
