The Freename Forum

The US company Unstoppable Domains Inc., known for blockchain domains such as .eth, .crypto and .wallet, has announced its intention to apply for the new generic top-level domain .podcast from the Internet registry ICANN. The extension sees itself as a “portal to the next generation of the internet and your gateway to a vibrant community of creators, thinkers, and innovators”. This is to be achieved in collaboration with The Edge Of Company, a Singapore-based company founded in 2020 with a focus on Web3 and NFTs. Pending a successful application, .podcast can already be registered as a Web3 domain via Unstoppable Domains for a one-time fee of US$ 20. However, it is not possible to use .podcast domains in the Domain Name System administered by ICANN. However, Unstoppable Domains is currently advertising a claim to “discounts and/or access to future The Edge of Company events, a creator forum to connect with other creators, and airdrops from the Edge of Show guests.”
