Ethereum developers introduced the ENS Name Wrapper code that allows you to convert ENS names into a “wrapped version” in the form of an ERC-1155 token. Domain owners will have more control over their subdomains.

1/ ENS name wrapper is almost here 🧵👇

what’s this?

name wrapper gives the ability to convert any .eth name to an ERC1155 NFT

this is strong 💥

Specifically, the owner of example.eth can allow the creation of sub1.example.eth and restrict the creation of more subdomains. It will still be possible to create sub1 from sub2.sub1.example.eth.

The ENS Name Wrapper will grant rights (fuses) to:

• translation;
• creation of more subdomains;
• setup of text entries.

Each fuse can be permanently and irreversibly switched on and off.

In other words, exclude control over subdomains in the future.

The ENS Name Wrapper solves the trust issue where one can provide a subdomain to the other and then return it unilaterally. This happens after lighting the corresponding fuse.

4/ let’s say I control example.eth and I want to give my brake a subdomain of fren.example.eth

I can do that today, but my brake has to trust me that I will never pull back that subdomain.

trust me???

this is Web 2.0 crap

we can do better

The ERC-1155 standard will allow these to be viewed, transferred and exchanged in any wallet that supports it.

ENS metrics hit new all-time highs. In early July, the number of registrations on the Ethereum Name Service increased by 163% in one week.

Recall that in July, a major NFT collector lost 100 ETH as a result of an amusing bet on an ENS domain registered by him.
