.box is a simple naming layer for everything you do onchain.
Think of it as a stable, foundational identifier. Like a block explorer makes transactions readable, .box gives you a clean, consistent name that works across wallets, onchain tools, and emerging identity standards.
Works wherever onchain names resolve
Your .box name can be used anywhere that looks up a human readable identifier, letting you replace long wallet addresses with something short and memorable.
Built to evolve with new standards
The naming layer stays simple today and is designed to adopt new patterns as they emerge, so your name remains compatible as the ecosystem grows.
A clean, functional namespace
Your .box name is non custodial and easy to use. It gives you a memorable identity designed for broad adoption and practical utility, from payments to messaging and beyond.
What you can do with your .box name
A .box name is more than a domain. It is a clean, universal identity you can use across wallets, payments, profiles, and onchain tools.
Receive crypto from any wallet
Your .box name replaces long 0x addresses with something readable and easy to share. Anyone can send funds to yourname.box from the wallet they already use.
Receive crypto from anyone
Friends, customers, or collaborators can send you crypto directly to yourname.box from the wallet they already use.
Share a trusted payment handle
Instead of copying long wallet addresses, you share a clean and memorable name that is easier for people to trust and type correctly.
Add a simple payment link anywhere
Use your .box name as a universal link on profiles, websites, or social posts so people can send payments quickly and confidently.
How ownership works with your .box name
Your .box name is yours the moment you mint it. It lives in your wallet with no sign up required. DNS is optional and only needed if you want your name to also work as a Web2 domain.
On-Chain (ENS)
A non custodial name you control
Every .box name sits in your wallet, not ours, so you keep full control from day one. There is no account to create and no KYC required. Your name is stored directly in your wallet and can be managed without relying on any platform or service.
Off-Chain (DNS)
Add DNS when you need it
If you want to use your .box name as a DNS domain, you can enable DNS at any time. This requires a simple account and basic WHOIS information because DNS registries follow regulated verification rules.

What's included:
Built on proven standards, designed to scale
Built on audited ENS standards and deployed on Ethereum, .box delivers secure, decentralized ownership with long term compatibility.
Under the hood, we run on proven ENS V1 standards
.box is built on the same audited resolver and registry patterns used across ENS today. This keeps .box fully compatible with existing tools while giving us a clear path to adopt new modular standards as they emerge.
Built on Ethereum, for security and longevity
We built .box directly on Ethereum, the same network that secures .eth and the wider ENS ecosystem. By deploying as a native, trustless ENS top level domain, your name inherits Ethereum's security and decentralization, stays compatible with the wallets and tools you already use, and never depends on a single company to keep working.
