Freename.io, what is this?

[Surya Giri Kurniawan]

I saw an add at Facebook about Freename.io offering domains just like Unstopable Domains.

How these kind of domains work, the future, and the regulations?

Regulation? Not much. They're handy for payments, than copying / pasting long receiving addresses every time. Probably the main utility of them at this point, if you're in crypto

Never heard of "Free Name", can't even find them on Google. To say "free" is a little deceiving

Shakehands domains and domains for Crypto are offered. But who regulate of ownership, everyone can sell domains like these and no control about what can be sold. This FreeNane.io for the example. Let's say I bought a domain lol.shibainu from an unregulated registrar, I guest another unregulated registrar can sell the same domain name to others. Who control the right of the dot available to be offered?

Stay away from it. Seems bogus.

I just put in a random domain off a TLD that I own, and it comes up as $9k. LOL, you can literally reg it for less than $15 at Porkbun, Namecheap, or Encirca.

Looks like they will take your domain, register it themselves and then resell to you for thousands.

Who control the right of the dot available to be offered?

Right of the dot is controlled by the registrar, the actual TLD is owned by the user that owns it. The owner loses control for a time once it is submitted and accepted by a registrar, but gain a percentage of profits from every SLD sold on it.
