Developing low-cost tools for NFT communities to provide their users with ENS subdomains using wildcard resolution, enhancing usability with wallet compatibility and enabling open-source developer integration.

NFT projects and communities have expressed a desire to use ENS names and subdomains to identify and connect with their users and holders.

However, the cost of setting a distinct record on the ENS Registry for each subdomain can be prohibitively expensive for communities with large user bases. This creates unnecessary friction for NFT holders, who often stand to benefit greatly from the usability improvements offered by ENS names.

We are building tools that enable NFT communities on EVM chains acquire ENS sub-domains at zero cost. This is accomplished via utilizing an ENS feature called wildcard resolution.

Our suite of tools allows anyone with an ENS name to link it to a collection and provide the NFT holders with free subdomains that are immediately compatible with popular wallets e.g Metamask, Uniswap wallet & Trust wallet.

Developers will also be able to utilize our open-source tools to build collection-specific ENS integrations.
