Episode notes

In this chapter, the speakers discuss the three stages of their vision for ENS, including making it the default assumption for users, enabling every SES to have an ENS name transparently and cost-free, and giving name owners control over the trust model of their names and subdomains. They also highlight their focus on building L2 integration tooling and improving frontend usability.

In this week's interview Dan and Sam are joined by Nick Johnson, technical lead of ENS. The team breaks down ENS past present and future digging into its origins, the continued vision for a credibly neutral naming service, and scaling decisions in an L2 world. They also discuss key new features including the ENS Fairy and V3 name manager. They close out today's interview with a discussion on digital identities and how the ENS ecosystem continues evolving the naming service's use-cases.
