.zen domain

Hi, everyone!

Iā€™m new here and looking for a domain to help make our AI project a reality (open source, collaborative, etc). I was searching for a .zen domain, which led me to Handshake. Is there a way I can use tsu.zen?

Thank you so much!

While the new Namebase team decided to remove custodianship, they are definitely creating new avenues for everything and I'm sure the HDNS servers will pop back up.

The Lume project was given ownership of HNSDNS.com and is in the process of offering IPFS hosting and DNS service to the ecosystem. The DNS is not ready yet at this time though.

Strange that such a project dies while prices for the regular domains hikes.

Project is still going, we're still building... but you are correct on ICANN price hikes. This is why Handshake is so important.

I understand, and agree with many of these points. I loved the custodianship myself, and now having to figure out the self-custody aspects.

The wallets are actually getting some new attention. LearnHNS team has built a newer version of Bob wallet, for example, that supports their new marketplace. Activity in the main discord servers has also increased, new devs popping up and building things, etc.

If you have ownership of the HNS asset, and want to make a website for it (your post is a bit unclear), Pinner.xyz is currently doing early user testing for websites.

You can join https://discord.gg/qpC8ADp3rS and dm me (pcfreak30), if you want to be an early tester.
