Hi Unstoppable Fam,

We’re excited to share that we’ve hit a major milestone for both Unstoppable Domains and our customers. Starting today, you can mint AND manage Web3 domains on Polygon for free, with Unstoppable covering all associated minting and gas fees

Within the past 2 weeks, over 200,000 Unstoppable Web3 domains have been minted on Polygon for free, saving our customers over $60 million in gas fees based on today’s gas prices. If you haven’t minted your domain to Polygon, be sure to do so. Here are instructions on how to mint your domain.

What can you start doing today?

  • Verify your NFT PFP (*NEW*)
  • Add your crypto addresses
  • Set up your domain profile (*NEW*)
  • Transfer your domain 
  • Sell your domain

*Remember to set your wallet to the Polygon Blockchain!

*NEW* Verify your NFT PFPs

One of the features our team is most excited about is verifying your NFT PFP! With this new feature, you can easily generate a PFP (profile picture) that not only verifies your NFT on the blockchain, but also showcases your UD pride with your domain name. Once you connect your NFT to your domain, you’ll be able to see it on OpenSea, where you can right-click and save (*wink*) to use on Twitter.

This feature is currently in beta, which is just a fancy way of saying that we’re still working to get all the kinks out. With that in mind, we are only able to support NFT artwork minted on Ethereum to begin with, and your PFP could take a few days to generate on OpenSea (so please check back every day to refresh the metadata if you don’t see it right away). 

For step-by-step instructions, check out our Help Center article here or watch the video below:

Add your crypto addresses

Another one of your domain’s superpowers is to replace long hexadecimal wallet addresses with your simple easy-to-remember domain name. With just a few simple clicks, you’re able to connect your wallet to over 275 different cryptocurrencies, and start receiving them using your domain.

Which wallets and exchanges can I use my domain with?

As of today, 10 wallets and exchanges (listed below) have migrated to the Polygon blockchain. Now you may be asking yourself why only 10 if we had more before on Ethereum? That’s because all wallets and exchanges have to update their resolution libraries or API endpoints in order to be able to read and resolve Web3 domains on Polygon. So until the rest make those updates, we want to give you the heads up that domains minted on Polygon will only resolve on those 10 wallets and exchanges below to start. 

Note: While we can’t guarantee a specific timeline for when each wallet or exchange will resolve as it's at the discretion of each individual organization, we’re making progress to make it easier for them to integrate and expect to have more exciting updates for you all in the coming weeks. Lastly, if you feel so inclined to send your favorite wallet/exchange a kind notice that you’d like them to integrate as well, it wouldn’t hurt. :) 

(Current integrations on Polygon: Trust Wallet, Burst / Signum Wallet, Bacoor, XDEFI, Ambo, Alpha Wallet, Edge Wallet, Atomic Wallet , Coinomi Wallet, Equal Wallet, Guarda Wallet)

Set up your Domain Profile

Domain Profiles open a new world of UX & web3 opportunities. They’re a fast, simple, and convenient way for you to start sharing your digital identities across your social universe. You can now bring your digital identity to life by:

  • Easily displaying your wallet addresses for others to send you crypto
  • Sharing your contact info, such as your name, location, and email address
  • Linking your social accounts (Twitter, YouTube, and Reddit)

Most importantly, this information sharing is 100% opt-in and fully controlled by YOU!

Transfer your domain

Let’s say you bought an Web3 domain, and maybe you want to gift it to someone or transfer it to another account you own. Unlike traditional domains, which have up to 30 day waiting periods, know that with us, you can easily transfer your Web3 domain within seconds and for free!

Sell your domain

On the other hand, if you’re thinking about parting with your domain by selling it, you have two options. You can either 1) list it for sale on the Unstoppable website (this will alert those searching for your domain that it’s up for grabs), or 2) list it for sale on OpenSea.

What's next for Domain Management

We released free domain management as quickly as possible so you could immediately begin using your domains. That said, there are a few features and integrations that are not available yet - but which we plan to support in the future.

Next on our Polygon (L2 Scaling Solution) Roadmap

  • Phase 3 (est. January - February)
    You can move minted domains from Ethereum to Polygon
    You can move minted domains from Zilliqa to Polygon
  • Phase 4 (est. March - April)
    You can mint .zil domains to Polygon
    You can move minted domains from Polygon to Ethereum
    (*Note: You will not be able to bridge from Polygon to Zilliqa)

Thank you as always for your support so far. We’re proud of not only the work we’ve accomplished this year, but also the strong community that’s been built with our Web3 domains. 

We can’t wait for you to see what’s in store for 2022.
