"A domain asset on a blockchain. New extensions (like .com or .info) launched as smart contracts on public blockchains. Domains are stored by their owners, no third party can take them away." —— Unstoppable Domains
UnstoppableDomains.com is a place where you can buy domains easily, configure domains, and wherein the near future you’ll be able to build uncensorable websites and manage all of those tools.
The biggest difference is that these domains are on a blockchain and not in a centralized database. The way it works in the current domain world is there’s one centralized registry, and then there are permissioned writers to that registry like GoDaddy and Google Domains. And they have the ability to move your domain and they also have the ability to take your domain. That’s the biggest difference is that this is a censorship-resistant system, and they also work in payments.
So, you know about cryptocurrency payments, but everything that a traditional domain name can do, a blockchain domain will eventually be able to do as well. That’s the big picture.
