Freename, a prominent player in the Web3 domain industry, has officially revealed its intention to participate in the upcoming ICANN gTLD (generic Top-Level Domain) registration round.
Press release follows:
The company plans to apply for several domains, including .chain, .token, .metaverse, and others. Additionally, Freename will submit applications on behalf of select third-party clients during this round. While the identities of these partners are currently confidential, Freename confirms that each collaboration has been carefully chosen to ensure maximum impact and relevance. These Web3 domains will also be mirrored in the Web2/DNS space, broadening their functionality and audience.
Strategic Collaborations and Leadership at Freename:
Freename’s strong foothold in the domain registration market, combined with its strategic partnerships, has made this initiative possible. The company has cultivated relationships with influential players in the traditional domain industry, including a significant partnership with ICANN-accredited registry ShortDot. Together, they launched a joint venture called WebUnited, aimed at integrating blockchain technology with Web2 domains. These collaborations strengthen Freename’s position in the market and enhance its ability to participate in ICANN’s gTLD program.
As the first Web3 Registrar with ICANN accreditation, Freename stands out by offering both traditional DNS domain names and Web3 domains that are tokenized. Its unique combination of Web3 expertise and domain tokenization technology has helped the company maintain a leadership position in the sector, as demonstrated by 2024 data showing it as the top Registrar in the Web3 space.
Looking Ahead: Opportunities for Companies
With the upcoming ICANN gTLD round approaching, Freename is inviting companies interested in securing custom top-level domains to join this innovative venture. Businesses looking to get involved can apply using this dedicated form.
