Unstoppable Domains, Web3 domain names with multiple use cases

by Thomas

The Web3 era has seen the advent of a new generation of uncensorable and unalterable domain names, offering a convenient solution for receiving cryptocurrencies and hosting websites. The Unstoppable Domains platform offers a range of Web3 domain names from .crypto to .blockchain to .nft. Discover the many possibilities offered by Unstoppable Domains’ domain names

What is a Unstoppable Domains domain name

An Unstoppable Domains Web3 domain name is designed to be uncensorable and unalterable. It allows users to link an easily remembered blockchain address to their crypto wallet, website or social media profiles, without having to worry about their domain name being censored or suspended by a third party.

A typical Ethereum address “0x13jgv[…]1g6eh7Ba” is very difficult to remember and is not readable by the human eye. A Web3 domain name can then fill this gap by being directly linked to this address. So, for example, when someone enters your domain name (e.g. “clement.crypto”) into a wallet to send you funds, the wallet then looks up the domain name on Ethereum, finds the associated blockchain address and then executes the transaction.

The domain names available on Unstoppable Domains are new extensions (similar to .com or .fr) designed as smart contracts on public blockchains. These take the form of non-fungible tokens (NFT) on the Ethereum (ETH) and Polygon (MATIC) networks. Moreover, mint a domain name on the Polygon blockchain does not cost any gas fees, the user only has to pay the cost of the domain name itself.


Here are the different domain names offered by Unstoppable Domains:

  • .crypto ;
  • nft ;
  • x ;
  • wallet ;
  • bitcoin ;
  • dao ;
  • 888 ;
  • zil ;
  • blockchain.

While traditional domain names are managed by a handful of players, a blockchain domain name is stored in its owner’s wallet, similar to a cryptocurrency. Thus, no third party entity can remove it or its associated content.

Unstoppable Domains also stand out because they do not require renewal. Anyone who buys a blockchain domain name on this platform owns it for life.

But that’s not all, domain names of this type offer a myriad of possibilities to their holders to make their life easier in the Web3 as a whole, in addition to providing innovative features. To quickly summarise, here are the main advantages of a domain name from Unstoppable Domains:

  • Simplifies cryptocurrency transactions by replacing all your complicated wallet addresses with your domain name;
  • Provides the ability to connect to decentralised applications with your domain name, allowing you to have a universal username on the web3;
  • Allows you to easily create and host websites;
  • Allows you to send emails in confidence without revealing your real email address.

Let’s look at these features in more detail

What to do with a Web3 domain name

Easily receive cryptocurrencies
Unstoppable Domains allows you to receive over 300 cryptocurrencies using a single domain name. As long as you have set up your blockchain addresses on the domain you own, anyone can send cryptocurrency to your domain, and it will end up in your wallet.

For example, if you own the domain name clement.crypto and ETH is sent to that domain, you will receive it on your associated Ethereum address. If BTC are also sent to this domain name, you will receive them at your associated Bitcoin address.

This is an extremely useful feature in everyday life, if only to exchange funds between addresses that you own or simply to facilitate the receipt of funds that might come from your friends, employer, etc.

Taking ownership of your identity on the web3

A blockchain address made up of a multitude of characters with no meaning to the human eye is not very personal. Thus, it is possible to display a domain name from Unstoppable Domains on a multitude of decentralised applications.

Imagine you are one of the top players in a popular blockchain game, but your digital identity on the top players’ leaderboard appears as “0x13jgv…..1g6eh7Ba”. It’s hard to take that little moment of glory for yourself!

If an application is compatible with Unstoppable Domains, this complex address will disappear in favour of your associated domain name, if you wish. This feature goes far beyond blockchain games and can be used as the name of your avatar in a metaverse, an NFT gallery, etc.

Create and host decentralised websites

With just a few clicks, it is possible to create a decentralized website with a domain name you own. With no hosting fees and no costs, such a website is the property of the user for life.

To access it, however, you need to use a web browser compatible with these websites, as Brave and Opera natively are.

Anonymize your email exchanges

By owning an Unstoppable Domains domain name, you can create an “@ud.me” email address for free, like “clement.crypto@ud.me”.

If you want to add an extra layer of privacy to your main email address, you can set this @ud.me email address to redirect to your main email address, so that you can receive and reply to messages without revealing your email address.

Unstoppable Domains allows you to block addresses, allow specific senders or disable forwarding altogether, all from the platform dashboard, under your domain profile page.
