The Blockchain Naming System Community Group has been proposed: -------------------------------------------------- Explore blockchain based naming system used to name wallets and other objects stored in blockchains, such as non-fungible tokens. Blockchain elements are referred to by a long hexadecimal string. Just like IPv6 addresses, those are hard to remember. Creating human-friendly names that resolve to those strings was deemed an important step for the early adoption of blockchain technologies. Early blockchain developers did not develop DNS extensions for that purpose. They created entirely new alternative naming systems based on the particular blockchain they were working on. We are exploring all options for a unified web based solution to the problem. -------------------------------------------------- You are invited to support the creation of this group: http://www.w3.org/community/groups/proposed#blockchain-names Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as "proposed"; it will appear in the list of current groups: http://www.w3.org/community/groups/ In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account. To request one: http://www.w3.org/accounts/request If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org. Thank you, W3C Community Development Team
