Hey UD fam! Introducing crypto cards! Retweet, like, and comment with your NFT domain to get a free card. First five comments get one guaranteed. After that I'll do a raffle for another 20 free cards. Let's have fun bringing digital identity into the real world! @unstoppableweb

In my early 20s while in grad school, I got in trouble for selling marijuana. I took responsibility, pleaded guilty, served 14 months including treatment, and ultimately built a better life for myself. I’m remorseful and embarrassed, but my past shouldn’t be shameful. 🧵.

Just crossed 200k+ domains registered on @0xPolygon for the month of November. And 550,00+ domains registered in the past 4 months. That's more domains than any other blockchain naming services has registered in the past 4 years.

UD is going to submit a proposal to the ENS dao to get rid of renewal fees. We really don’t think they are necessary for the protocol. Let’s try to make web3 domains better than web2. No renewal fees!.

One day when you call an Uber the driver will see "yourname.nft" and you will be able to see "driversname.nft". And everyone will just feel so much safer getting into that ride b/c you'll have reputation data about each other. NFT domains will be EVERYWHERE.

Yes, Unstoppable is a for profit VC backed company hell bent on increasing web3 domain adoption. We like to move fast. We like to build. And we love listening to customers. This is what we do best. eth, .x, .sats, .crypto, .nft, .wallet polygon . We are all winning!.

~8% of all .eth domains were registered at Unstoppable today! This makes us one of the top registrars for ENS, and we're just getting starting. Glad to contribute to the onboarding of new users - our focus - and to be a one stop shop for web3 domains!.

Domains are the most natural technology for identity on the internet. Most people don’t see it yet. But when they start using domains for identity it will seem natural and like it always was supposed to be.

The internet didn't go mainstream without domains replacing IP address. It's going to be the same for crypto with domains replacing addresses. It's obvious.

Thanks everyone for your patience as we worked on the credits drop. This is yet another major drop we’ve done for holders, we are getting close to $200M in credits dropped all time. Love to support our early adopters!.
$69M PROMO CREDIT AIRDROP. We just airdropped $69 million in promo credits to our community. 🤯. Head to our website and login to see your available credits and pick up your next grail Web3 domain. These credits expire after 30 days! .

It’s hard to believe we’ve been building @unstoppableweb for 5 years now. From an apartment in Vegas to a team spread across the globe, it’s been an incredible journey so far. I wanted to take a moment to reflect on how we got here and where we are going. 🧵👇.

Why did we launch “.unstoppable”?. Because we advocate for branded TLDs. We have to dogfood our own product. How can we advocate for “.coinbase” “.ledger” or “.metamask” and not have “.unstoppable”? . You have to stand behind your product yourself. That’s why we did it.

Over 110k domains minted in the past week. Based on today’s gas costs, that equates to $22M in gas fees saved for our customers.

Looking forward to continuing to build. We are still early. Thank you everyone for your support, the community, the team, our investors, and the crypto industry at large. It takes a village. And it will take all of us to bring the ownership of web3 to the whole internet.
1/ BIG NEWS 🦄🦄🦄. We’re excited to share that we’ve raised $65 million - at a $1 billion valuation - in a Series A led by @PanteraCapital! 🚀. This is a huge milestone for NFT domains and further validation for user-owned digital identity. 🧵👇or blog:

Imagine how crazy risky you have to be to start a company. Then imagine how crazy risky you have to be to be in crypto. Next time you see a crypto founder just know that’s probably one of the riskiest crazy people you know. This is why we shitpost.

Auto renewal.Credit card payment.Vault. We aim to make this as easy as possible, that’s always been our focus. Looking forward to working with all domainers in the web3 community. The world needs user owned identity. Thanks everyone for your support. We will keep shipping 🚢.

At Unstoppable Domains we believe that domain names (.com, etc.) will be the first major industry real world asset (RWA) to go 100% on chain. Domains are a $10B+ growing asset class that led the way to website adoption. They're also going to lead the way for crypto adoption!.

We want to be the apple of naming services. Full stack, end to end, consumer focused, great experience. UX in crypto sucks. It’s going to require consumer focused companies to break through. Not more dev tools.

Not gonna lie, a little tired after the rush to get ready for cyber Monday. In the last 8 weeks we launched 40+ additional icann TLDs, launched 10+ new web3 TLDs, closed 50+ small feature requests and bugs, refactored parts of our backend for easier wallet actions, and added.

Naming systems should be able to import <> export into and across other networks. Users names need to be as portable as their data.

What should we do next to help support .eth?. What we’ve done so far:.*Messaging.*Auto Renew.*Pay with CC.*Custody. We’ve got a few more things cooking but looking for more ideas. Let us know how to be supportive, we are looking to build! 🚢.

Blockchain domains will eventually be used by more people than plain web2 domains. The use case for digital identity is 100x bigger than website content resolution.

To all the domainers out there who still don’t believe in crypto and web3, how about you tell that to GoDaddy! 👀.
We're thrilled to announce our partnership with @GoDaddy 🎉. Millions of customers can now use their DNS domains in the ENS ecosystem!. Let's dive into what this means👇

Ordinals Update:. We created a UD endpoint to auto generate a preview image for any inscription. This functionality is sorely lacking in the Ordinals ecosystem. I don't know if there’s enough demand for ordinal previews to make it interesting. We will use it to show ordinals on.

Domainers together strong! 💪. With interoperable messaging for .eth Unstoppable is working on the tools to grow the web3 ecosystem. Let's take the whole industry to the next level.
Introducing .eth messaging 💬. Now, you can use your .eth domain to message the extended web3 domain community including users with domains ending in .eth, .nft, .x domains and more!. eth messaging comes with all the same great features you get with Unstoppable Messaging. 👇🧵

Domains are the new usernames. They are portable, memorable, user owned self sovereign identities. Create as many as you need, be public or stay anon. The choice is 100% yours. Wallet addresses are the new passwords allowing you to permission access to data that you own.

If your domain expires you don’t own it. You rent it. Having to remember to renew is bad UX. NFTs are better without renewal fees.
Psst. Don't forget to look up ENS expirations. No matter how iconic a word is, it may be available. I just got constellation.eth for just $800!. And many more will be soon available. For example, tomorrow:. aid.eth.modal.eth.

@Ethernetexplora A lot of UD holders also hold ENS. We want to make it easy to manage all your domains in a single place. Also given all the snark around UD and ENS we are building bridges. Goal is to get everyone pushing things forward.

Your NFT domain will be a core part of your future digital experience. We are having an absolute blast building interfaces, standards, and tools to create real consumer owned identity. Shoutout @Persona_IDV.
🚨 New Product Announcement 🚨. Today, we’re excited to introduce a new feature for Login with Unstoppable called Humanity Check that will allow Unstoppable Domain owners to get more from Web3 apps and start unlocking unique rewards and experiences, one human at a time.

We put in a request to move sub domains to their own collection: This will make the main collection for domains easier, and keep the floor prices of the two separate. 🤞We love you OpenSea, thanks for all you do!.

For people who don’t know, Unstoppable was multi currency first, Unstoppable was domains as NFTs first, and Unstoppable was free gas first (ens working on this now). All this accusations of copying, the reality is it’s projection. Great projects adopt great innovations from.

Unstoppable was one of the first (maybe the first) registrars for .eth. Feels good to be going back to our roots. And we look forward to making domaining easier for all .eth holders.

Hi everyone-. We're finding a few additional repricings on domain endings that the team didn't get completed in time for the credits drop. So once those are updated (hopefully next 2 weeks) we'll drop credits to those users specific accounts. Thanks!.

We're going to have a text record type UNS (Unstoppable Naming Service) soon so that you'll be able to resolve your ".com" domain in 100+ wallets (compared to just one wallet for gasless ENS support today). Maybe next week.

At Unstoppable we figured out how to live rent free in the heads of so many web3 domainers. Learning how to get an emotional response is part of marketing your product. It’s easy once you get it. We love ❤️ our haters across communities. You keep us going. Charts unrelated 😂

ENS has been a horrible abusive insiders monopoly actively trying to shut out other naming systems for years. Fortunately we have this free speech platform and folks in crypto believe in open criticism and competition, right? . Somebody needs to say something about it!.

You can now purchase and claim multiple .eth domains at once. 🎉.

It’s not a coincidence that momentum returned to the web3 domain market right around the time Unstoppable extended the olive branch and started integrating other naming services. We sink or swim together. We got this.

Extremely proud of the team for getting V1 launches out for a few new products this month. As a startup one of the best things to watch is if you are shipping relevant updates on time. And I'm happy to say everything seems to be going well at Unstoppable. Moar to come!.

V1 is now out the door! Excited to launch our marketplace for domainers. Great work team!. My favorite feature is that buyers can simply use our existing checkout process, which I believe will help sellers sell more domains faster.
