Worth renewing Handshake domains (HNS) ?

[richtrading]

Namebase sent me a reminder I need to put 10 HNS to keep my name there. Is it worth it? I don't see Handshake as taking off, do they even resolve on modern computers or phones available from stores?

No need to keep them on Namebase, Bob Wallet is like .01 HNS for renewals.

If you're not really feeling confident about Handshake anymore, it might not be worth renewing your domain. Not a lot of people are using it, and HNS domains still don’t work on most browsers or phones unless you install extra stuff. The tech is interesting, especially for avoiding censorship, but in reality, it’s still pretty niche. So if you’re not using the domain or just keeping it to maybe sell later, saving your 10 HNS might be the smarter move. But if the name means something to you or is really rare, it could still be worth hanging on to just in case it gains value in the future
