In the vast internet landscape, envision Web2 and Web3 as distinct neighborhoods in a bustling digital city. Web2 embodies the familiar houses with standard addresses, while Web3 introduces futuristic domains on a blockchain. Enter 1Web, the visionary city planner seamlessly connecting these digital districts, and learn more about how 1Web APIs work.
Imagine a thriving online marketplace with a diverse array of products and services. Before 1Web’s APIs, these offerings were confined to the digital city’s traditional part. However, with these transformative tools, it’s as if a hidden gateway was discovered. Now, the marketplace caters to the conventional digital space and extends its reach into the innovative blockchain-powered district. This newfound connection expands the marketplace’s influence, allowing it to flourish in the familiar and cutting-edge corners of the internet. Dive in to discover the magic of 1Web’s APIs, seamlessly weaving traditional web spaces with advanced blockchain technology.
1Web’s mission is clear: to seamlessly and effortlessly sell and mirror domains across both Web2 and Web3. For registrars, this opens a gateway to offering Web3 domains directly to end-users without the complexities of traditional Web3 integrations. Registries, on the other hand, witness a digital revolution as they mirror their Web2 TLDs to Web3, unlocking enhanced capabilities for end-users.
For registrars, the transition to Web3 is not just a technological shift; it’s a strategic move toward offering advanced services and capturing a growing market segment. 1Web empowers registrars with state-of-the-art infrastructure, providing a frictionless experience through seamless API integration reminiscent of the EPP system.
1Web’s API facilitates registrars in easily incorporating Web3 domains into their platforms. The infrastructure is not just an integration tool but a key that unlocks a new realm of possibilities. Registrars can now offer their end-users the power to truly own their digital spaces, marking a departure from the traditional domain leasing model.
The API facilitates upselling, enabling registrars to tap into untapped revenue potentials. With 1Web’s domain extensions, registrars can enhance customer loyalty, ensure higher renewal rates, and provide a seamless experience for end-users.
Registries play a crucial role in this digital transformation, and 1Web’s APIs empower them to make a significant impact.
1Web’s API allows registries to mirror their existing Web2 TLDs onto the decentralized web. This isn’t just a technical feat; it’s a strategic move to ensure that traditional TLDs remain relevant and at the forefront of digital evolution.
The API merges the stability of Web2 domains with the capabilities of the Web3 ecosystem. It’s about thriving in the digital revolution. Registries can now offer domains that transcend conventional boundaries, booming on the blockchain with versatile utility.
1Web’s API enables traditional DNS-based domains to grow on the blockchain, unlocking new dimensions of benefits. It’s not just about adapting to change; it’s about embracing it and expanding the capabilities of domains in ways that were once unimaginable.
Registries can seize the opportunity to drive wholesale revenue via Web3 DNS mirroring. The API provides the tools to maximize revenue potential in a decentralized landscape.
The magic of 1Web’s APIs lies in their foundational principles and technical capabilities. Here’s a closer look at the technical aspects that make these APIs the backbone of a digital revolution.
When a domain is registered in Web2, the API enables its mirroring in the alternate world. This dual registration ensures a consistent presence across both realms, creating a seamless user experience.
The mirrored domain works as a single entity. This unity ensures that the content, branding, and messaging remain consistent across both Web2 and Web3, offering end-users a cohesive and unified digital experience.
End-users can engage seamlessly with websites from traditional browsers or blockchain-based platforms. The API ensures that regardless of the access point, the interaction is smooth and consistent.
In the grand symphony of digital evolution, 1Web’s APIs emerge as the conductors, orchestrating a harmonious collaboration between registries, registrars, and end-users. The technical prowess, user-centric approach, and commitment to innovation make these APIs not just a set of tools but a transformative force in the ever-expanding digital landscape.
As we navigate the realms of Web2 and Web3, 1Web’s APIs stand as a testament to the power of seamless integration, propelling us toward a future where domains aren’t just addresses but gateways to a unified, versatile, and empowered digital experience
This technology operates using a basic API and employs an EPP-style integration. On the blockchain side, we utilize some of the most secure and reliable blockchains. Our backend is founded on technology which is proven, audited, robust, and already widely used.
In such cases, the lifecycle of the new Web3 domain will be paired with its Web2 counterpart.
There have been policies adopted that are akin to ICANN’s to restrict and manage domain collisions and DNS abuse. Orders will be legally accepted from whitelisted entities and provide usage data, including abuse reports, to the relevant entities. The legal permissions aspect is taken care of through registries.
Yes, Web3-mirrored domains have a renewal process that involves management fees, which are managed in the backend. Registrars have the authority to recall domains if payments are missed. As for premium names, registries can independently set their prices and categories.
Browsers merely provide functionality, with added crypto functions for Web3. We furnish extensions and DNS to open Web3 domains. Registrars also have the option to manage both Web2 and Web3 domains. Depending on the setup, a double website can either be enabled (providing both DNS and extension) or disabled.
Yes, involvement from the Web2 Registry is essential in the process.
Policies established in the Web2 space will be mirrored for resolving disputes.
The benefits include entering a fresh market, broadening use cases for clients, and tapping into new revenue streams. Unique selling points (USPs) encompass utilities, decentralized IDs, payments, and the capability to attach decentralized websites to domains.
Yes, this fully supports domains set up with DNSSEC.
This bridges Web2 and Web3 by providing mirrored versions of Web2 domains. We offer an API to registrars for seamless management between the two.
We believe in the advancement of technology and see this endeavor as a positive force in the Domain Industry. Leveraging our expertise in both Web2 and Web3, we aim to bring immense value to the space.
Yes, it can be mirrored instantaneously as long as the Web3 extension is supported.
Every TLD, including ccTLDs, can be mirrored in Web3, but this is contingent upon the approval of the entity that manages the TLD.Yes, it can be mirrored instantaneously as long as the Web3 extension is supported.
