Thx for highlighting this. If Handshake becomes a viable system it will def. serve as an important milestone for making web3 viable. Problem is this is not the type of project that is getting significant attention or funding.

ENS is an example of a project that is extant, working, and has a decent amount of funding (controlled democratically through a delegated token voting system). Here's my ENS record:

also, my post is on arweave, one of the cryptoeconomic data availability layers mentioned on the post:

What I like about handshake is that you can own the TLD. I own searchableguy/ top level domain. This is gated by ICANN right now and they charge huge fees for nothing.

Is it me or this links to some JSON?

Re:On Web3 Infrastructure by dystopiabreaker on Sunday January 09, 2022 @04:18AM (#29861728)
yeah, it links to a standard JSON format for my article. mirror's data is portable. the json also contains my signature which authenticates the post to my self-sovereign identity (the keypair associated with my ENS name).

I just to a quick look it seams pretty centralized in practice no? https://docs.ens.domains/permanent-registrar-faq

all of that functionality is mediated by on-chain evm bytecode

And if there is a logical error, what's the correction mechanism?
Re:On Web3 Infrastructure by magicjosh on Sunday January 09, 2022 @11:07AM (#29864446)
The ENS DAO is responsible for changes to the protocol. There's a constitution, delegates, and proposals as tools for corrections.

More info on the ENS Governance page: https://docs.ens.domains/v/governance/process

If a web3 project can't get funded now in the current craze, im pretty sure it never will.
