Secret Network Unveils the .secret Web3 Domain in Partnership with Unstoppable Domains
Unstoppable Domains has partnered with Secret Network to launch a new top-level domain (TLD) called “.secret.” This innovative domain extension offers users a unique digital identity within the Web3 ecosystem.
What are “.secret” Domains?
Users can now register “.secret” domains on the https://www.secret-domains.com/. These domains function beyond just website addresses. They serve as comprehensive digital identifiers that allow users to build unique online profiles. Additionally, Web3 domains offer several blockchain-based features:
- Sending and receiving cryptocurrencies directly through your domain.
- Accessing all 865+ integrated dApps on the Unstoppable Domains platform.
- Earning exclusive collectible badges.
- Securely messaging other Web3 domain holders via applications like Group Chat.
Unstoppable Messaging, powered by the Web3 messaging protocol XMTP, provides a built-in solution for connecting with friends, following projects, and fostering online communities through secure, decentralized messaging – all within your “.secret” Web3 domain.
.secret Meets Unstoppable Domains
The collaboration extends beyond the launch of “.secret” domains. Unstoppable Domains and Secret Network plan to submit a joint application to ICANN (the governing body for domain names) in 2026 for a branded “.secret” gTLD (generic top-level domain). This would place “.secret” alongside established domains like “.com” and “.org,” potentially granting it widespread recognition.
The partnership also explores the possibility of integrating Secret Network’s privacy features with Unstoppable Domains’ products. This could lead to private domain registration, shielding user identities on the blockchain and encrypting domain metadata.
This move aligns with Unstoppable Domains’ strategy of securing gTLDs within the next ICANN application window. This would empower brands and even cities to create their own cost-effective naming systems leveraging Web3 technology. With ICANN approval, “.secret” domains would become seamlessly discoverable by mainstream users, while their Web2 counterparts would gain access to various blockchain functionalities.
