In a groundbreaking move that is set to redefine the landscape of DNS, D3, a leading Web3 domain name service provider, has announced the addition of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) as payment options for its domain name services.
D3’s decision to accept SHIB and BONE payments on Shibarium, the Layer 2 blockchain of the Shib ecosystem, is expected to boost the adoption of *shib names among the Shib Army and crypto enthusiasts. The move comes amid a growing trend of individuals and organizations securing custom-made blockchain-based domain names, as the decentralized nature of these domains offers enhanced security, interoperability, and universal access.
The integration of SHIB and BONE payments on Shibarium eliminates the inconvenience of bridging tokens back to Ethereum, providing a seamless payment experience for customers who prefer to use cryptocurrencies for domain name purchases rather than traditional fiat currencies.
To leverage this new feature, users can follow these steps:
- Visit D3 app with your web browser and connect your wallet (such as MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet).
- Input the preferred domain name and add the extension (core or shib).
- If the domain name is available, select the desired payment option (SHIB or BONE) and complete the transaction.
D3’s partnership with Shiba Inu and the addition of SHIB and BONE payments on Shibarium is a significant development for the Web3 domain name space. By offering a more user-friendly and accessible payment experience, D3 continues to support the SHIB community and drive the adoption of Web3 technologies.
In addition to the recent payment method expansion, D3 has also introduced a feature for direct minting to users’ wallets. This development comes four months after D3 partnered with Shiba Inu to introduce a .shib top-level domain (TLD), positioning Shiba Inu as the first crypto project to push toward getting a TLD. The collaboration between D3 and Shiba Inu has set the stage for a more user-centric and interconnected Web3 landscape, paving the way for enhanced digital identities and domain interoperability.
