Conference will cover the latest with blockchain naming systems and Handshake.
Handycon, a virtual conference for the Handshake blockchain naming system, takes place this week. The fourth installment of the event will be March 13 to 15.
Topics include:
- Legal and trademark safeguards
- Bridging web2 and web3
- Scaling Handshake
Speakers include:
- Aaron Oxborrow, CTO of Namebase (owned by Namecheap) (interviewed in DNW podcast #391)
- Nole Opperman of Hey Tx (interviewed in DNW podcast #411)
- Tom Barrett, President of Encirca (interviewed in DNW Podcast #398)
The conference comes at an interesting time for blockchain naming initiatives. Many companies are throwing their hats in the ring, such as D3, Orange Domains, and .Box. However, there seems to be a shift from the idea of hosting websites on these alternative naming systems to integrating blockchain naming systems with regular DNS domains. All three of the previously mentioned companies are in this camp, and that seems to be where Ethereum Name Service is headed, too. Handshake is squarely designed to mimic and replace the DNS with its own extensions, putting it at odds with this shift.
