Unstoppable Domains & Secret Network Launch “.Secret” Top-Level Domain (TLD)

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Digital identity provider Unstoppable Domains (UD) and Secret Network, the confidential computing layer of Web3, officially announced on Thursday, May 30 that they have launched the “.Secret” Web3 top-level domain (TLD), which will offer enhanced digital privacy and communication for users within the blockchain community.

The .Secret TLD – which will function as both a web address and digital identifier – represents a huge leap in terms of privacy for domain registration and digital interactions, and will supply users with a plethora of features, such as the native ability to send and receive cryptocurrencies, integration with decentralized applications (dApps), the creation of unique digital profiles, end-to-end encrypted messaging, and more.

With the new .Secret Web3 domains now launched, we take another step towards a future where brands can have more empowered and low-cost connections with their communities on the blockchain. We believe this is where the future of the online community is heading,” said Unstoppable Domains COO Sandy Carter. “Fans can show their appreciation for Secret Network by creating their own digital identity, while also leveraging the great privacy, security, and anonymity benefits of a .Secret domain.”

Secret Network lets anyone build and use decentralised applications, or dApps, with encrypted data, customizable privacy, and confidential solutions for Web3,” Secret Network Foundation Executive Director Lisa Loud. “Now, with a .Secret domain, our fans, builders, active community, and anyone else who sees value in a .Secret domain, all have a great way to communicate with one another with continued anonymity. This is a truly unique step forward for our mission, and future ICANN approval would be the icing on the cake.”
