no-transcript. Innovation, education, alpha and business development in the Web3, technology and digital identity space. I am your host, wynn Airdrop, founder of iHeart Domains, behind the iHeart Domains profile, and we are your number one resource for unbiased Web3 and blockchain domain educational content. With over 100 Tech Talk episodes and YouTube videos produced and archived over the past two years, you can easily search our past archive of prior recordings and an easy to reblog overview of each episode at iHeartDomainscom, and you can actually listen to it directly within the website itself it's embedded there or, if you prefer, to listen back on a podcast player, if you've got a kind of a podcast regimen. We're also on pretty much every major podcast platform out there. So, whether it's Apple, spotify, iheartradio, all you have to do is type in Tech Talk by iHeartDivanes and you should be able to find all of our episodes.

Speaker 1: 3:59

As typical, I'm going to start off with a little bit of opening news before we get into the main topic at hand. I'm going to start off with a little bit of opening news before we get into the main topic at hand. Yeah, we are in the middle, or getting towards the middle of February. That means we are coming up on East Denver. For those of you who aren't already aware, I and Verano or Gerardo from FreedName will be attending East Denver. So, yeah, if you're out there and curious about some of the things that we've been talking about on these tech talks, want to dive deeper or discuss some partnerships or potentially grabbing your first TLD, I'd be happy to link with you and connect with you out there in Denver. So, yeah, very open Again, if you're going to be out there in Denver, feel free to shoot a DM or anything like that to connect with us. But yeah, very open Again, if you're going to be out there in Denver, feel free to shoot a DM or anything like that to connect with us. But yeah, both he and I will be out there. I'll be out there from the 26th to the 1st and I think he'll be out there at the same period of time. So, yeah, definitely looking forward to that.

Speaker 1: 5:04

So we sponsor and by we it's me and a couple hundred individuals but we host, on behalf of the Verbs Dow, the Verbs Hangout IRL events every month here in San Antonio, texas, and we've actually collaborated and co-sponsored an event going on at ETH Denver, actually on the 26th. So we've collaborated with Blunt Dow, who we've mentioned you know several times, who has also, you know, helped sponsor our events here at IRL. So, reciprocating and returning the favor, blunt Dow is having their I believe this is the second or third Blunt Dow Olympics, so this is going to be taking place on the 26th from noon to six o'clock. So if you're going to be out there a little bit earlier, if you're coming, you know, from the hackathon or build-a-thon, definitely invite anybody that's out there to attend. But, yeah, the Buntown Olympics is going to be a great event, full of, obviously, networking and, yeah, socializing, using again networking and yeah, socializing, using again you know, common ground, right, it's Denver, perfect place for us to have a big session, network, talk about all things. You know nounish, verbish and, for those of you who aren't familiar, blood Down is a nounish sub-down, just like verbs are. So you know, two nounish sub-communities and several other sponsors actually are coming together for this Black Down Olympics. So definitely should turn out to be a good event.

Speaker 1: 6:41

So, if you're going to be out starter to be named, your first or second, your third want to collect a few that you're bullish on. Our TLDs or a few of our premium TLDs are open for registration. Those TLDs are dgen, exchange, .88888, which is five eights, or defi wallet. They are open for registration and they are also they do not exclude the free name coupon. So currently there is a Super Bowl related coupon on the free name platform of HUT30. So H-U-T-30, which will get you 30 percent off your cart. I think there might be a minimum on the cart but, yeah, feel free to add, you know, a dg and a exchange or one of those domains to the cart and grab some of these domains before this real estate becomes a lot more

Speaker 1: 7:26

expensive. And yeah, with that being said, I'm going to go ahead and get into the main subject at hand. Again, I'm kind of trying to power through this and, you know, got a meeting after this and this is more of a continuation again of the past couple tech talks and Web3 domain workshops that we've had. But yeah, the topic, as you can see at the top of the space Web3 domain workshop how to manage potential Web3 domain collisions. As I've stated, the last few spaces, this space, this tech talk and those in the near future are part of our Web3 domain workshop series. This is in partnership with Freename. Purpose and mission of doing this is to not only highlight different tools that are in the Freename ecosystem, specific to how to build out TLDs and create a successful Web3 registry. But in addition to that, a lot of the things that Freename has built and a lot of the things that utility that they bring to the table is universally usable. This education is universally usable, again, trying to cast the bigger net of you know, bringing you know the educational web through domains to the table, enhancing their value so that we can bring more people into the space. The more that you know how to use them, the easier it is for you to explain to someone else how to use them, the more you want one more, just saying somebody else how to want one, and this is kind of how we grow and we build. So, again, even though a lot of what we talk about in these workshops is going to be free name ecosystem specific, as I've mentioned before, a lot of the tools that they have built are actually multi-registrar resolving. So even those tools you know will still resolve most UD and ENS domains. But even still, the things that we talk about, especially when we talk about marketing and things like that, that's just general advice that can be applied to any naming ecosystem. So again, welcome any and everyone to pull up to these, and this education is for

Speaker 1: 9:18

everyone. We do these on Fridays. This is following a VIP workshop that we do in our VIP community on Thursdays. So if you're wanting a more one-on-one experience, if you're already a member of the Freedame community and you're a VIP, you'll see that invitation in the group. So feel free to pull up. If you're not already a VIP and you're interested in becoming one, again, reach out in the group. Freedame does have a general or main group and you can always ask in there. You know, hey, what does it take for me to become a VIP? And I'm sure you know they'll guide you along the way. And yeah, as you probably could guess, there are some special incentives for being a VIP. One of those, including, you know, these Web2Domain workshops as well, as you know other, you know, personalized services, again, to help grow and build and ensure that each of our VIPs and any of our TLD owners are

Speaker 1: 10:11

successful. So cool and also got to bore you with the boring stuff. But before I dive into this tech talk, I do always like to get us all on the same page with what we're talking about. Always like to get us all on the same page with what we're talking about. Again, people hear the word domain name. They typically refer to the thing that they type in on their browser that takes them to, you know, pizza Hut, something like that. Whatever it is that they're searching for, most people associate that word with a name that takes them to an address or to a destination on Google or on Chrome or anything like that. Right, those domains have existed for 30 years, although we share very similar characteristics and although we share similar

Speaker 1: 10:50

utility. Resolution for Web3, domain names, which is what we're talking about here, do not resolve to web content. They resolve to blockchain addresses and whatever content is either linked to or whatever records are set on those. So I always like to make that difference so that people don't think we're talking about those dot coms, those dot infos, those dot IOs, those dot AIs. We're talking more about those dot cryptos, those dot E's, those dot NFTs and, in the case of Freename, the dot whatever. You are All

Speaker 1: 11:19

right. So, with that being said, getting back onto the topic of the Web3 Domain Workshop, as I stated at the beginning, this is basically a brief continuation of the conversation that we've been having over the past couple weeks, you know, concerning the existence of duplicate TLDs and competing namespaces. Anybody up who might be listening to this in the future, if this is the first time of you listening to this, two weeks ago a discussion was initiated in relation to Unstoppable Domains, launch of the onchain TLD, which you know was discovered during that conversation, is also available on Freename and likely Handshake and D-Web and anywhere else that's in the TLD business right, and likely Handshake and D-Web and anywhere else that's in the TLD business right. So during that workshop, the first one that we held two weeks ago, took the opportunity to clear the air and clear up some misconceptions about who really owns what, if what can even be owned, and also how the landscape of the space is changing, especially as opportunities have shifted. How you know different entities have, you know, basically decided to put their hands in other cookie jars, right. So we talked about that, right, and what that actually means. And again, you know, don't want to downplay, you know anybody's concerns but for the most part, depending on how you know you position yourself and pivot, it could be a nothing burger, right. So that was conversation number one Last week, kind of in continuation of that, we focused on how to bring more value and visibility to those TLD assets that you

Speaker 1: 12:58

own. You know, on free name or again, like I said, anywhere else, right, to establish not only a market but also, potentially, as a means to legally protect your rights of ownership, right? So kind of again a continuation of that conversation Tactic of you know, announcing your real estate, right? This is this is obviously what's causing the uproar every single time. You know, one entity posts their real estate on Twitter. The other entity who's been sitting on the real estate and hasn't been doing anything with it is now waving the fist like you stole what's mine,

Speaker 1: 13:34

right? So one of the easy ways to combat that, as we talked about last week, is to start planting your flag when you purchase real estate as well, right? Even if you're not prepared to fully bring something to market, the solutions that FreeName provides you whether you're individually able to create a narrative or not are still turnkey enough for people to end up there and register domain, so there's no harm in establishing your flag. We talked about things, like you know, being first to market. We talked about things like creating your footprint online using the easiest possible thing that you have in front of you, which is your ex account, all the way, you know, to creating a website and, you know, going OD and creating all kinds of stuff, depending on how seriously you wanna take this. And then also emphasize that, with the right plan, even though other TLDs that are the same as yours may grow and may exist in the space, there's still a big opportunity to build and grow your TLD, depending again on the value that you provide, the market that you corner, despite competition from other

Speaker 1: 14:37

namespaces. So, continuing on from that, in this final chapter of the conversation, I wanted to discuss and introduce some potential opportunities in the event that the collision monster does come to your door. So again, it's no matter what I say and no matter how I try to soothe the situation, every single time one of these announcements is made, the same emotions are probably going to come up to the forefront. One day, it might be you Right, and so let's talk about some of the things or some of the options that you have in front of you, besides getting mad. Right In the event, again, the collision monster knocks at your door. I have my own personal experience with it and it's actually not as bad as you think, and this is something that I discussed, you know in detail a little bit yesterday during the Web3 Domain

Speaker 1: 15:28

Workshop. So again, what can you do if one day you see your TLD being blasted all over on Twitter by someone else? Well, I want to start off by saying the short answer is nothing, right, really, absolutely nothing. And that's the first thing you kind of have to accept and suck up Right Anger, waving your fist in the air. You know spamming, you know other people's tweets, you know with with your scammer and ours was first and all, that it will change nothing. Overnight their protocol is not going to disappear and overnight yours isn't either. So then what now? Are you scammed? Is your investment gone? Is it dead? Well, actually, in my opinion, quite the

Speaker 1: 16:17

opposite. First and foremost, there's a very popular saying out there, we've all said it a million times. They say imitation is the best form of flattery. And in this case, if your TLD is being launched or copied by someone else, right, and I may come back to this to further clarify like copy, because copy is really a very negative word, I mean if, yeah, a lot of this is malicious and a lot of these TLDs that are being launched by other namespaces are being done. So you know, kind of, you know, out of disrespect or without respecting the other existing TLDs that are out there. But, again, different technologies. If there's a different use case or a partnership that could benefit from this technology, it's copying, but to an extent. Right, because, again, the technical collision is something that we're not running into yet. Right, and it's something that we may not ever run into, a situation that occurs Again when we're talking about collisions. In this case we're talking about from a branding

Speaker 1: 17:25

perspective. But, in any event, going back to imitation is the best form of flattery. If your TLD just happens to be one that pops up on a Twitter timeline from someone else, it means it's desirable by other namespaces other than you, and it's a stamp that you likely have a market out there for it. So the good news is, whoever out there is marketing your TLD is going to help you find it, if you haven't already done so. So, for a lot of us, again, a lot of these collisions that are popping out and, as I mentioned yesterday, there's a history to this

Speaker 1: 17:55

space. We speak about a lot of these collisions that are popping out and, as I mentioned yesterday, you know there's there's a history to the space you know we speak about, you know, a lot of current grievances is as if there is a history to them or as if there isn't a precedent to them, and we have to acknowledge that almost every namespace that that exists has stepped on the toes of someone that's come before it, and for good reason. Right, it may have been for good reason, and I've been, you know, very transparent about my opinion of some of those other namespaces that I'm a proud member of that just don't have market fit, right. But in any event, again, like there's other namespaces that have been around long before and have the argument that you know they have ownership of a TLD, and some of them, and a lot of the, you know the kind of the nature, especially like in communities like and again not to pick on anybody, but communities like Handshake, where there's a land race and people are just buying up a bunch of names. You may have a portfolio full of names that you just haven't built anything out on yet and don't know who your market is. And again, like anytime one of these new TLDs pops out, it's the first ones to come out and say you stole what I own. Well, instead of kind of taking it that way, maybe take it as them doing you a favor again. You know, looking at how they're marketing, how they're attracting, how they're creating value, may help you figure out a plan for for for where you've been lacking right on your own TLD, but kind of getting off of that

Speaker 1: 19:26

again. I do have a personal experience with this. I wanted to run through it kind of in an example of how to take it as the glass half full instead of the glass half empty, of how to take it as the glass half full instead of the glass half empty, and then, yeah, hopefully inspire. You know, obviously, you know we hope that there is a lot less cases of this occurring. You know we have tried to make efforts, or at least pretended to try to make efforts, you know, to create, you know, organizations and entities that wouldn't infringe on people's assets. But I mean, since that's not working, at least in this case maybe you can get inspired for what to do in the event that your name pops up somewhere

Speaker 1: 20:03

else. So, again, as I mentioned a million times before, one of the TLDs that I own on the free name platform is dgen. Dgen itself is a really popular term, right, it's a term that is coined or is very popular within the crypto space. It typically means you know somebody who's a gambler in the space, which is a lot of us. If you're playing with meme coins, if you're, you know aping NFTs and flipping. If you're doing all this fun stuff, you know you're a degen, right? You're a degen right. So the culture of being a degen, which at one point was seen as kind of negative but now it's kind of seen as what it is, has existed for quite some time. So dgen was actually my first TLD mint on Freename. My very first TLD that I minted on Freename when I discovered them on their launch day over two years ago, was dgen, and I got a hell of a bargain on it. I mean a hell of a bargain, right? But in any event, my ownership, or my claim to ownership, again goes back that far. For any of you who are a member or familiar with Warpcast or Farcaster, the word djn is an extremely popular term for you,

Speaker 1: 21:18

right? Not sure why Yossik landed on DJ or how he came to that conclusion, but yeah, a gentleman named Yossik ended up developing a token and a community called DJ that was birthed. The Warcast became a humongous token. Yeah, itcast became a humongous token. Yeah, it still is a humongous token, to the point where they even created their own L3 blockchain on top of base. Yeah, that big, that much volume, big community, lots of farming probably drove a lot of people to even use Warpcast in the first place. But despite all of that, my TLD mint on Freename predates the existence of both, I think Warpcast itself, but definitely predates the existence of DGN. That token. Or Jacek ever thinking about creating a namespace connected to it? And I don't think Jacek created a namespace. Somebody else

Speaker 1: 22:14

did. And, with that being said, no matter how much I want to tweet or yell that or get in somebody's DM and say it, they don't care at all. They launched DGN name service last year on the DGN blockchain and, yeah, I had to watch it on Twitter. Again, that feeling that some of you may feel like you're close to feeling. I felt that feeling and I know how it feels. And again, so, being at the doorstep of that and having to process this, I was actually surprised on how, I don't know. I wouldn't even say I would even say light, lightweight, bullish, right, right, because, again, imitation best form of frattery If you ever want a stamp of approval for whether you've got a prime TLD that somebody else might pay a premium for seeing somebody else launch it and have a whole community backing and chanting it and making tweets and share their names. That's probably the best thing that could possibly happen to you making tweets and share their names, it's probably the best thing that could possibly happen to you, and that's kind of really how I took it from the start, and so one of the first things I did obviously was, you know, in the event that their namespace happens to be more successful than mine, I'm not going to miss out on them gains. So I'm going to go try to mint some grail to SLDs before anybody else can, which we did Actually, it was me and a gentleman that was also very vocal in the free name community

Speaker 1: 23:40

collector. We discovered djian at the same time and him and I minted some pretty solid names on that namespace that we still own. And in the event that it ever becomes something and again hear what I'm saying in the event that it ever becomes something, I hope to flip those names to make some money. But that's something to keep in mind, right? Because even though we initially take something as oh my God, this is the worst thing to happen to me. Sometimes when it plays out, it actually does become a nothing burger. So, again, my reaction in that

Speaker 1: 24:13

name. In that case I actually posted a congratulations, I posted that I minted I think I screenshotted or something and shared one of the grill domains that I minted on that TLD. And then I shared my TLD that I own on Freename and put out there. You know, hey, I saw my name pop up somewhere else. Congrats to them. Whatever I'm paraphrasing, obviously I don't know my exact wording, but I was surprised by what happened after I posted that tweet and that's again surprised again by how I took it. But then, even that, what came after? And when I posted that tweet and I posted my own djntld and I posted a link to it, I actually ended up getting some registrations that day and that threw me off because I'm like, well, you know I'm posting the competition If it's doom and gloom, if my TLD is dead, you know nobody's going to want mine as opposed to

Speaker 1: 25:07

there. And then that's when the first light bulb kind of clicked is. You know, if you, if you're different, not everybody wants something just because it's there, but some people may still align with the ethos. They may love your tech better right, or their favorite name may be taken over there. Or, as we've now discovered, moving forward, no one uses DGN chain. It sounded good at first. I tried. I was actually very bullish and very active on Warcast at this time so again, minted some of their dgens. I've never used one once, I don't even know where they resolved. So again, no one uses degen chain outside of that core community in Warcast. That one day may change. I don't know what that team if there even is a team has going on, but that TLB only had value in that community in that single

Speaker 1: 26:00

moment. Overreacting to it and seeing it as doom and gloom would have been would have been stupid on my part because I would have missed out on the rest of the world that keeps moving forward. Yeah, the market for them is dead. Yeah, the market for them is dead Again. If they are able to build something and create, you know, a market for any use case for this TLD, I hope to sell the ones that I got for for a premium, but in the meantime, yeah, they're just souvenirs, right? So is this really competition? And so the

Speaker 1: 26:31

the? The first point that I want to make is, again, one of the best things that you can do in the event that you wake up and you see your asset launch somewhere, is step back, breathe, and then what they say is D-Y-O-R, and that's do your own research on who, what was launched, who they appeal to, and then kind of slow down and see if it's even competition in the first place. And again, if you're not building with your TLD, if it's been sitting dormant in your wallet and you know this, you know, take this opportunity to study them and see how they manage and create a market for your TLD, because they've already done the hard part for you, which is prove that someone else outside of you thinks that that TLD is cool. So and that's the same thing that I did, right, so paid attention to what they were doing again, got registrations after I posted the fact that the other dgen TLD existed, which let me know and reminded me, after doing my research again, what I said at the beginning of this space DGEN as a culture, dgen as a word, has existed far beyond that community and that token, and although it is very easy for them to create a namespace and a value within that community, there's still a wider DGEN community that we're able to appeal to, and so, instead of focusing on that, focus on how to appeal to that wider community. You know, one of the things that you know I've put out there that I'm working on and building with my TLD is I plan on integrating my dg and TLD into a future gaming development where the TLD will be used for rewards, token game memberships and building up the value that way can gain memberships and building up the value that way and, again, creating something in a completely different ecosystem, creating a completely different consumer base on a completely different technology and a blockchain, because, again, we're being built by a multi-million dollar company that has a team of 30 plus people who are dedicated to building out a blockchain name service that maybe one day will integrate with I can and create real world tlds, and that thing is something that was created by some dude who is a dev and just felt like doing something one

Speaker 1: 28:46

day. Right, um, so again, um, maybe. So, just taking that in context, again, staying focused on your mission, building out something that could create value to the general space, and then maybe even and I gave this example as well in the workshop yesterday there are potentially going to be opportunities if you're making enough noise and building enough value. If you're making enough noise and building enough value and again, our product is going to continue to become stronger while your competition might be struggling to create a market, maybe you'll have an opportunity to one day exit to that person, right? So for many of us who have large portfolios of TLDs, this is I mean, this is a holy grail situation for you. You should, actually, if you own hundreds of TLDs on FreeNamer anywhere, the best hope that you possibly have would be to one day look up and see that UD has launched that TLD, because now you can go make some noise and dig in their backyard and make them want to buy you. That's your market, right? And I've said this. I mean I swear to you, I've said this on other spaces. You know we've had this conversation before and we've. You know now it's a little bit more real. They're popping them out like

Speaker 1: 30:02

popcorn. But back then it was the fear of this happening and we were going through the DOTSAT situation and we saw how that played out and again I gave my opinion then that that was the best possible outcome for the owner of DOTsat on a handshake, just keeping it a buck, like what else could have been done with that TLD. But, understanding your value, right, you own a TLD on a blockchain that cannot be erased, right? No legal entity on earth can wipe it away. It's going to be a pain in the booty for anybody who's trying to create a market. Otherwise, especially if you're very loud and vocal about it, you can create a market for someone to acquire you. If your asset has value, then communicate that value to the person who's trying to build with that asset somewhere else, if you know you're not going to build on it and there's an opportunity there. So, again, you've got a stockpile of TLDs. Best thing that could possibly happen for you is for somebody to one day pop out and announce it on Twitter, because there you go. Now you've got somebody's DMs, you can jump in immediately. So yeah, again, one of the big potential things I think that we always should look at is ways to collaborate, ways to build, create our own markets and, again, ways to add value so that you don't have to pay attention to anything else that's popping in the

Speaker 1: 31:21

space. So yeah, at the end of the day, kind of the wrap up of all three of these spaces, is that all you can do, because it's, as I said, it's not going to happen to everybody. But, again, if you've got, if you were in any of these platforms earlier, you've got some Grail names, they're Grails to you, they're Grails to somebody else. So it's going to happen one day. Your day is coming right and it's not anyone's fault. Well, I mean to an extent, right, it definitely ain't FreeNames' fault, right. I mean to an extent, right, it definitely ain't FreeNames' fault, right. And, as I said, like, depending on the type of partnership, the type of opportunity, it may even be beneficial for some of these other namespaces to create these partnerships and build on these TLDs. So, again, in those situations, I wouldn't say it's a fault, even though it's still a toe step. It's just a progression of the

Speaker 1: 32:14

space. So, again, it's probably going to happen to you if you got a good name, and that's not that bad. But at the end of the day, if your day comes, all you can do is have faith in your investments, blast that faith from the rooftops, establish your market and then build with your head down. That's really all you can do. And as long as you're doing that, your tribe will find you, people will find you, your value will find you Again, even advertising my competition, I still attracted men from my TLD because everyone's not attracted to everything. Everything doesn't fit everyone. If you build something and you're the only thing that works in the thing that you build, then you're the only option that people will have. So there are many ways for you to make and create value for your

Speaker 1: 33:05

TLD. Big spaces that we actually had yesterday with Freename was kind of on that subject matter, about the power of DApps and again, big thing about DApps is the ability to create your own environment where you're curating experiences for users that are coming there, and a lot of those users are going to be afraid of the crypto space in general and so their only engagement or their only interaction with the space may be through that D app. Right, understand, when you're dealing with a wider crypto space, you have to know things, like you know contract addresses and making sure they're right or not, and whether something's a rug or not, or if it's verified on OpenSea. But like if you, if you're a newbie coming into space, you just get a dry wallet and some Web site addresses. It's a very scary place. But when you're in the apps like Coinbase, when you're in the apps like ones that exist in, you know, in the DeFi space, those curated experiences. You know, if you trust the app, you trust everything in it. You don't got to check those things because it's already been checked. And again, you're building your own D apps. You're integrating your domain names and your TLD into them. What else are they going to use? So focus on building, focus on your mission, not your

condition. Hopefully, these last three spaces kind of close the book on whether or not it means anything if your name pops up somewhere else. Again, the opportunity here is different, right? So in a lot of circumstances, seeing those TLDs pop up somewhere else, seeing those relationships and those partnerships pop up somewhere else, can potentially create a market for you and you should look at it that way. So, yeah, hopefully you guys enjoyed these last couple of tech talks. We're going to start shifting back to digging into individual utility next week on the next week through the main

Speaker 1: 34:58

workshop. Again, if you are in the VIP community, we do these on Thursdays. These are done via Google meet, where you're able to attend live, ask questions, any questions that you possibly have, and we dig into these, you know, as a community, as a group, and then here we do these on Friday so we can spread the knowledge and spread the love again, so that we can all cohesively build, learn and grow outside of this bubble. So, yeah, look forward to talking to you guys soon, as this is with every Friday, right after this Spaces, we are going to be on the Web 3, the Main's Well Talk with Freename. It's going to be at 8 o'clock CST with me and Paige Howe. So definitely invite you guys all to pull up for the free name spaces. But, yeah, thank you for attending another Tech Talk. This will be available on podcast pretty soon. Talk to you later, thank you guys.
