Lifetime ownership
Buy once and it never expires. No renewal fees, no registrar holding your name hostage.
A .virtualsociety domain is one asset that works as your website, your wallet, your email and your payment address. Buy once. No renewal. Held in your own wallet.
Check availability against the live registry.
Lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens. Two names are checked at once so you can compare.
A traditional domain points at a server and expires on a schedule. A Web3 domain is an asset you hold, resolving to whatever you decide it means today and tomorrow.
Buy once and it never expires. No renewal fees, no registrar holding your name hostage.
An on-chain token under your private key. Nobody can freeze it or sell it from under you.
Send to name.virtualsociety instead of a 42-character hex address.
Attach a Web3 mailbox or resolve to IPFS. Your identity stays portable across hosts.
One namespace that stays coherent as your projects and audiences multiply.
One handle across your site, socials and payouts, with no platform able to reclaim it.
A name that reads the same everywhere, plus a payment address customers trust at a glance.
User-facing names that double as login identifiers, resolving identity straight from chain.
Let agents sign, pay and verify using a readable name rather than an opaque address.
Give a community, DAO or club a namespace owned by its members, not a registrar.
No expiry and no renewal bill, for projects that intend to exist for years.
A Web3 domain is a strong asset but an awkward thing to send someone who has never heard of one. Holders of a .virtualsociety domain can claim a standard web address, served through Freename's Noto network DNS.
A URL fragment cannot do this job. Browsers never send virtualsociety.top#stunning to a server, so the request that arrives is indistinguishable from a homepage visit. A subdomain is the only mechanism that works.
The tool and the holder link use the same word for different purposes, so keep them straight.
A holder of claimweb2.virtualsociety hands out virtualsociety.top/#claimweb2. It opens the tool with their name already filled in, so a visitor does not have to know how Web3 naming works to get to the right place.
The fragment is read by the page after it loads, because browsers never send a fragment to a server. Same URL works for every holder, so there is nothing to provision per name.
Try #claimweb2The difference comes down to who owns the name and what happens when you stop paying.
Traditional domains are still the right choice for pure web hosting. A Web3 domain is for identity: names that must outlive any single host, registrar or company.
virtualsociety.top/claimweb2 is the tool itself, open for anyone. virtualsociety.top/#claimweb2 is a shareable link that opens the same tool with the name claimweb2.virtualsociety already filled in, intended for holders of that domain to pass to their own visitors. The fragment is handled in your browser after the page loads, since a URL fragment is never sent to a server.
Anyone holding the matching .virtualsociety domain. Connect the wallet that owns it, sign a message, and we check the on-chain owner before issuing anything. A wallet that does not own the name is refused.
Yes. A link belongs to whoever holds the domain, so re-claiming after a transfer simply issues the same address again. There is nothing to configure and nothing to cancel.
No. Your name resolves in browsers and wallets that support Web3 DNS, and you can point it at any host or at decentralised content such as IPFS. If you would rather hand people an ordinary address, the claim tool issues one.
Your domain is an on-chain token. Holding the controlling private key is what makes it yours, so you can transfer it, sell it, or hold it indefinitely. No registrar can revoke it.
No. There is no expiry and no renewal cycle. A one-time purchase is the whole cost.
Connect the wallet that controls the name. We read the on-chain owner through Freename's resolution API and compare it to your connected account, and we verify your signature server-side, before any link is issued.
Freename's Noto protocol resolves Web3 domains without a plugin, and browsers such as Aloha, Mises and Beldex resolve them natively. The Chrome, Firefox and Brave extension covers the mainstream case, and MetaMask resolves domains through its Freename Snap.
Yes. Web3 mail providers including EtherMail, Mailchain and LedgerMail accept Web3 domain recipients, so you can receive mail at your name.
Yes. Transfer it on-chain whenever you like, or list it on the Freename aftermarket to reach buyers already inside the ecosystem.
Register a .virtualsociety domain and own it outright. Registration is handled through Freename, an ICANN-accredited registrar.
