Contribution Report: February 1, 2026 — April 3, 2026

Over the past two months, I’ve focused on protocol-level research and continued maintaining the ENS DAO’s editorial and social infrastructure.

Protocol Research and Implementation

  1. [RFC] Positioning ENS as a Foundational Layer for AI Agent Identity: Authored and submitted a formal technical brief and companion paper mapping ENS’ stack to NIST’s framework, positioning ENS as the naming layer for AI agents across ENSIP-24, ENSIP-25, ENSIP-26 (pending), and the Node Metadata Standard. Submission filed April 2, 2026.
  2. [RFC] WebAuthn Credential Resolver: proposed a resolver contract making passkey public keys first-class ENS records, verifiable onchain via P-256/EIP-7951. Revised schema incorporates rpid scoping, multi-credential indexing, and credentialID support following community feedback.
  3. [RFC] Gas Subsidy Contract: proposed an epoch push rebate: a publisher posts a Merkle root with a bond, a 24–48h dispute window opens, then ETH is pushed automatically to eligible addresses with no claim step. Funded via a RevenueSplitter inserted downstream of Treasury Flow Automation — zero changes to existing controllers.
  4. [Temp Check] TLDMinter — Authorize as Root Controller: proposed via steg.eth: TLDMinter, a smart contract authorizing TLD operators to claim ENS names trustlessly via DNSSEC proof submission, seeding 1,166 post-2012 ICANN gTLDs in a single executable proposal. Live on Sepolia testnet. Audit-ready.

Editorial and Social Infrastructure

  1. Continued maintenance of the ENS Editorial System: AI-assisted pipeline for newsletter and DAO social curation.
  2. Ongoing ENS Pulse development: real-time governance and protocol legibility dashboard.
