HNS 🤝

Freedom isn’t just speech.
It’s ownership. It’s access. It’s resilience.
If someone else controls your domain, your money, or your identity, you’re NOT free.
Bitcoin fixes the money.
Handshake fixes the root.
Nostr fixes communication.
Freedom is being uncancelable.

Just as Bitcoin is an attack on central banking, Handshake is an attack on central naming. $HNS 🤝

The future isn’t centralized, it's not possible.
Systems that rely on gatekeepers break.
Systems that rely on math scale.
Bitcoin for money.
Handshake for naming.
Decentralization isn’t a trend. It’s the upgrade path.
#Decentralization #Handshake #Web3 #FutureProof

The internet was never truly ours, just leased through gatekeepers.

Bitcoin broke the banks.
Handshake breaks the DNS.
No more rent. No more root zone masters.

Own your domain like you own your coins.

#Handshake #Decentralization #DigitalSovereignty

Here are a few ways:
- use a web2 bridge
- download a browser with HNS support (carbon, mass, aloha)
- DNS settings in system or browser of choice
- Run a light client (all browsers)
- Run a full node (all browsers)

Enter Handshake Protocol (HNS): a decentralized naming protocol that replaces ICANN with a permissionless, blockchain-based system.

With Handshake, no government or corporation can delete, censor, or seize your domain. Your name is yours, cryptographically.

Free speech in the digital age starts with free naming.
Handshake doesn't just protect your right to speak — it ensures you can't be technically muted.
Own your words. Own your domain. Own your voice.

I see you serve many masters

You rent your SLD from VeriSign and they rent the TLD from ICANN

Antpool has started signaling today, following CyberPool and Mining-Dutch, both of which started a few days ago.

The 95% threshold is expected to be reached next period, resulting in the soft fork to lock in at block 290,304 (August 14) and activate at block 292,320 (August 28).

Is your domain name censorship-resistant?

HNS domains no longer work on @bsky.app.
They worked briefly in the beginning, but I’m not sure why support was dropped—HNS/DNS seemed like a perfect fit for BSKY. Maybe it offered too much privacy?
There was also a dedicated BSKY server that supported HNS domains, but that has shut down as well.

Deployment of the Airstop soft fork has started. As of today, we're showing details of the current and all previous soft fork deployments on $HNS. Track the progress and see which pools are signaling readiness.

Added to the pack🙏

This is how the Airstop soft fork would affect $HNS tokenomics.

No phone number needed, use ICANN HNS or ENS domains to register. Refreshing approach, Verification work with TXT record, like @bsky.app

Added 🤝 thanks for the input

BSky is teaching everyone about TXT records and domain name security.

When you’re ready to take it one step further, and fully self managed and control your domain name identity, it’ll be time to dig into Handshake.org.

Real decentralized identities are possible today, start learning.

Fire Portal IPFS Gateway for Handshake Domains

🔥 Fire Portal connects Handshake domains to IPFS content, enabling truly decentralized websites. It resolves Handshake domains, finds their IPFS content identifiers, and serves the content.
