(Promotion) – In a major leap forward for the domain industry, WebUnited has teamed up with Domain Cost Club to launch the world’s first on-chain mirroring service for .WS domains.
Powered by cutting-edge technology from WebUnited and Freename, this partnership brings the traditional Web2 .WS domain into the Web3 era—offering domainers an exciting new opportunity to future-proof their digital assets.
.WS: The First Country Code TLD to Go On-Chain
This initiative marks a historic moment: .WS is the first country code top-level domain (ccTLD) to be mirrored on the blockchain. Domainers who purchase their .WS domains through Domain Cost Club can now access Web3 utilities by mirroring their domain onto blockchain networks. The .WS domain serves as both a traditional Web2 address and an on-chain asset, enabling decentralized functionalities such as wallet address resolution, NFT integration and crypto payments via domains.
WebUnited’s plug-and-play API, developed with Freename, allows registrars worldwide to offer Web3 versions of traditional domains. While .WS is the first, many more extensions are expected to follow, signaling a shift in the domain industry toward a more decentralized, blockchain-powered future.
Bridging Web2 and Web3: Unlock New Digital Potential
The power of Web3 lies in its decentralized infrastructure, and this new service allows domain owners to benefit from it while retaining their established Web2 presence. With Web3 domain mirroring, users can:
- Resolve blockchain wallet addresses
- Enable secure cryptocurrency transactions
- Build decentralized websites
- Authenticate digital assets via NFTs
For businesses and individuals, this means a secure, future-ready online identity that bridges both worlds. Lars Jensen, co-CEO of WebUnited, sums it up: “WebUnited’s domain mirroring seamlessly connects Web2 and Web3, allowing users to keep their existing domains while accessing the blockchain—offering a glimpse into the future of online presence.”
A New Era for Domain Registrars
This technology isn’t just for domain owners—it also opens new revenue streams for registrars. By integrating Freename and WebUnited’s API, any registrar can offer domain mirroring services, giving customers access to Web3 capabilities without disrupting their traditional domain management. It’s a win-win for registrars seeking to provide cutting-edge services to their clients while riding the wave of Web3 innovation.
Exclusive Deals for Domainers
For a limited time, Domain Cost Club is offering exclusive pricing on mirrored .WS domains, making it an ideal time for domainers to jump on board. Early adopters stand to gain the most from this seamless integration of Web2 and Web3, with access to new blockchain utilities that enhance their domain portfolio’s value and versatility.
Looking Ahead: A New Standard for Domains
While the .WS domain is the first to benefit from WebUnited’s technology, it certainly won’t be the last. The goal is to expand this offering to more TLDs, allowing users across the globe to mirror their domains onto blockchain networks and unlock the full potential of Web3. As Davide Vicini, co-CEO of WebUnited, stated, “This is just the beginning. Our partnership with Domain Cost Club and .ws signals the domain industry’s shift towards a more decentralized, innovative future. We’re proud to lead this transformation.”
Domainers who want to stay ahead of the curve should act now to secure their Web3-enabled .WS domains and explore the growing possibilities of blockchain-based web services.
