What is ENS
ENS is an acronym that stands for Ethereum Name Service.
Ethereum Name Service (ENS) is a domain naming system built on the Ethereum blockchain.
Ethereum Name Service
Ethereum Name Service allows the randomly generated letters and numbers
of a standard Ethereum address to be converted into more easily recognizable words,
like the name of a person or brand.
The Ethereum Name Service or ENS is the decentralized naming protocol that is built on the Ethereum blockchain.
It adheres to open-source standards and is based on a set of decentralized smart contracts
that translate blockchain addresses into human-readable names.
ENS is a naming service for Ethereum, and for the wider blockchain ecosystem.
ENS enables cross chain naming of long addresses such as crypto wallets, content hashes, metadata and even smart contracts.
ENS names are programmable, and stored on the Ethereum blockchain as ERC-721 NFT tokens and in the future as ERC-1155 NFT standard tokens.
It works similarly to DNS, in that ENS names resolve long random number and letter combinations into human-readable labels.
Because this is done on the Ethereum blockchain, it is secure, decentralized, and transparent.
It is built on the foundation of Open Source programming, which means anyone can examine the code.
The software code is published in the open, on the public blockchain ledger.
You can do it!
