Introducing .brave: The Official Domain for 86M+ Brave Users

We’re taking our collaboration with Brave to the next level with the launch of .brave — the official onchain domain for Brave’s 86+ million monthly active users and the privacy-first internet community. Minted on Polygon, this new top-level domain (TLD) resolves Sonic, Solana, Ethereum, Base, Bitcoin, and more—giving users a unique way to own their digital identity, simplify crypto payments, and connect across the onchain world.

Our ongoing partnership already makes it easy for Brave users to experience the power of onchain domains—whether it’s accessing onchain websites directly in the Brave browser or resolving Unstoppable domains inside Brave Wallet for seamless crypto payments. Now, with the launch of .brave, we're giving the Brave community a dedicated way to represent their identity across the onchain ecosystem.

Brave is one of the world’s leading privacy-focused browsers, trusted by millions for its built-in Web3 wallet (Brave Wallet), ad blocking, speed, and crypto-native features. It’s more than just a browser—it’s a movement for a better, user-first internet.

The launch of .brave domains gives Brave users a new way to express their digital identity and take control of how they interact online. Whether you're a creator, builder, or privacy advocate, a .brave domain is a powerful, personal way to show you're part of the Brave ecosystem.

1. Launch an Onchain Website
   Build an onchain website that’s accessible natively in Brave Browser*. Hosted on IPFS (Interplanetary File System), there’s no hosting fees.
2. Simplified Crypto Payments in Brave Wallet*
   No more long, confusing wallet addresses. With a .brave domain, you can receive payments across hundreds of cryptocurrencies by sharing a simple, human-readable name.
3. Own Your Onchain Identity
   A .brave domain is more than just a name—it’s an onchain digital identity you control. You can build a verified profile at UD.me, link your wallets, showcase digital collectibles, and connect with other Brave users and the broader onchain community.

* .brave domains will be directly resolvable within Brave Browser and the Brave Wallet starting in version 1.81 which will be available in Nightly and targeted to Release on August 5th, 2025.

Beyond payments and profiles, your .brave domain can be used to:

💻 Connect with others through Unstoppable Messaging and badge-gated Group Chats tied to your .brave domain.
📈 Trade or sell your domain in the Unstoppable Marketplace with low, onchain fees.
🌐 Access onchain apps, games, and metaverses via Login with Unstoppable using your .brave domain

We’re planning and strategizing with Brave on the upcoming ICANN gTLD application with the aim to expand the reach of .brave and unlock new functionalities, giving its users more ways to leverage their domain across digital experiences.

The Brave community has always championed ownership, privacy, and freedom on the internet. Now, you can bring that vision to life with your own .brave domain—your identity, your way, onchain.
