mbarulli on Nostr: Domain name registrars are still the most relevant and critical centralized component ...
Domain name registrars are still the most relevant and critical centralized component of the Internet.
I'm surprised that we have not been able to transition to a more decentralized, distributed, or federated system.
Despite various attempts, nothing has been able to gain significant traction. (I still remember the excitement of using Namecoin to set up a .bit domain that no one visited ...)
Perhaps this is an area where Nostr could play a role?
