Domains Cost Club is the pioneering registrar worldwide to offer the on-chain mirroring of traditional .ws domains within the Web3 realm. This advancement is powered by technologies from Freename and WebUnited, facilitating the development of an on-chain counterpart to the conventional domain. The .ws is recognized as the inaugural Country Code TLD (ccTLD) to undergo on-chain mirroring, representing a significant leap forward in the domain sector.
Web3 Utilities for Mirrored .ws Domains
At Domains Cost Club, .ws domains can be mirrored on-chain when users opt to acquire the Web3 edition of the conventional domain. After the on-chain variant of the .ws domain is established, users can utilize various Web3 functionalities, such as wallet address resolution. This enables .ws domains to be employed in Web3 for functions such as sending and receiving cryptocurrency payments or developing decentralized websites alongside traditional ones. The domain now acts as a unifier of the user’s digital footprint, effectively connecting Web2 and Web3.
How Registrars Can Mirror Traditional Domains
Currently, any registrar can mirror domain names on the blockchain and provide the Web3 version to their clientele. This is facilitated by the plug-and-play mirroring APIs from Freename and WebUnited. .ws is the first extension to be mirrored on-chain by a registrar, but many additional extensions are on the horizon, empowering more users to utilize their preferred domain names in Web3. Registrars keen on this service can connect with [email protected] to embark on their path toward domain innovation today.

Davide Vicini, CEO of Freename and Co-CEO of WebUnited, remarked: “This is only the beginning. Our collaboration with Domain Cost Club and .ws signals a transformation in the domain industry towards a more decentralized and progressive future. We’re honored to be at the forefront of this change.”
