Handshake names are an alternative root zone for internet names that are managed and distributed by a decentralized blockchain instead of a corrupt(able) centralized authority. In this guide, I will show you the simplest way to bid on a Handshake top level domain: Using Namebase.io. The HNS I will be using for this auction is the HNS that I mined while writing my previous basic guide on “How to mine Handshake (HNS).”

Here are the basic steps to bidding on a Handshake top level domain (TLD) auction using Namebase.

  1. Create a Namebase account and fund it with HNS
  2. Decide what Handshake name you’d like to bid on at namebase.io/domains
  3. Decide your bid and blind amount, then submit your bid
  4. Continue watching the auction to make sure you aren’t outbid - enjoy your new Handshake name if you win!
