## Product Overview
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A bad experience in most cryptosystems, aswell Status, is the requirement of typing or scanning the public keys and addresses to interact with other users in the network.
|
||
|
|
ENS disrupt centralized DNS: like DNS resolves into IPs, ENS resolve into ethereum addresses (and more) trustlessly.
|
||
|
|
Status would introduce a option for users registering a human readable contact username and its URI would be used in place of QR codes / private keys.
|
||
|
|
A small fee is required, so users are buying the subdomain, and therefore could be exchanged with other users, this network effect is ignored by this idea.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Product Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Users would be able to:
|
||
|
|
- buy a subdomain from one of the ENS domains owned by Status.
|
||
|
|
- find users by using the configured ENS Resolver for EMS address (subdomain.domain.eth)
|
||
|
|
- search/suggest domain for a username.
|
||
|
|
- send funds by typing their ENS address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Subdomain owners would be able to:
|
||
|
|
- change the owner of the subdomain
|
||
|
|
- change the resolver of the subdomain
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Democracy (or authority) would be able to:
|
||
|
|
- add new domains available with its own price
|
||
|
|
- change domains price
|
||
|
|
- change owner of domain (required for update of subdomian registry)
|
||
