Following our recent partnership announcement with Shiba Inu and Viction, we’re thrilled to introduce our upcoming Name Tokens; a multichain, cross-platform digital identity for Web3.

As part of our mission to bridge the divide between traditional Internet and Web3 infrastructure, we are developing futureproof, interoperable digital identities, starting with Name Tokens. These innovative tokens will act as your digital identity within the world of Web3, where you can use it as a multichain wallet address as well as a cross-platform username across different decentralized apps, games and platforms.

Bringing Interoperable Digital Identities To Web3

Current Web3 naming systems throw around the ‘domain’ terminology quite liberally without offering any of the actual utility offered by real domains. Real domains are fully integrated with the domain name system (DNS), allowing users to access websites and email infrastructure with ease. Billions of internet-capable devices such as computers, tablets, mobile phones, Internet of Things (IOT) devices and more support the DNS and real domains without the need for specialized software or plugins.

As part of our journey to bring interoperable digital identities to Web3, we are partnering with leading Web3 ecosystems to apply for and obtain their Top-Level Domains (TLDs) during the upcoming application period. In the meantime, we’re working closely with each one of our partners to develop dedicated D3 Name Tokens, which offer a host of Web3-oriented digital identity features.

D3’s Unique Name Tokens

Our Name Tokens feature a star or asterisk (*) between the name and extension, such as name*shib instead of a period (.). This is because our Name Tokens are unique Web3 identifiers and not real domains, which use the period. We want to avoid any confusion between real domains and Web3 names, unlike nearly every other project out there focused on Web3 identity.

These Name Tokens will offer a variety of features including:

  • Being used as a wallet address across hundreds of different blockchain networks
  • Being used as an infrastructure identifier across hundreds of different blockchain networks
  • Being used as a cross-platform username across various different decentralized platforms including DeFi, GameFi, SportFi and other related applications
  • Access to unique benefits and rewards programs that will offer users a wide variety of different incentives and rewards for participating in the D3 ecosystem
