ENSv2 Launches on Ethereum Mainnet
Written with artificial intelligence.
Ethereum Name Service (ENS) has announced the launch of ENSv2 on the Ethereum mainnet as of October 27. This new protocol introduces a more flexible naming structure and permissions management, with over 40 teams already adapting to the upgrade.
Overview of ENSv2
The Ethereum Name Service (ENS) has officially launched ENSv2 on the Ethereum mainnet. This upgrade is accompanied by a new version of the ENS App and the ENS Explorer, enhancing the overall user experience.
Key Features
ENSv2 introduces several significant features:
- Independent Registries: Each name can establish its own registry for subordinate names.
- Enhanced Permissions: Users can set finer permissions, allowing multiple parties to collaboratively manage the same namespace.
Adoption and Compatibility
More than 40 teams have already adapted to ENSv2, among them notable projects like 1inch, Aragon, Arbitrum, Jumper, Lighter, MetaMask, and Safe. Existing ENS names remain valid, and there is no need for users to re-register. Eligible .eth names have the option to upgrade to v2.
Commemorative NFT
In conjunction with the launch, ENS has released a commemorative NFT for ENSv2, celebrating this significant upgrade.
