As far as ENS Labs, there are foundations for this being laid. Increasing ENS global adoption is at the forefront, and the Marketing team ENS Labs is working with I think will be able to help a lot with this initiative in the very near future.
.eth is in fact cool. However, ENS is more than .eth. ENS is a protocol aiming to serve the public good of humanity. DNS import into ENS is a very overlooked feature of the protocol. I foresee a future where many DNS names (eg. .com, .es, .mx etc) will import their DNS into ENS. There are no registration fees for this, and imported DNS names never expire. I’ve heard the sentiment that .eth name registration, even at $5/year for example could be a hurdle to adoption, especially in developing countries. I would love to see world-wide gTLD DNS imports, and subnames created for free!
It does seem like the goalposts have moved for a production ready V3 manager app, but I believe with good reason. One of the newest and most exciting features is the “fuse” permissions that will be enabled with the new NameWrapper contract. It’s important that the end user clearly understand how to use permissions optimally. Once permissions are burned, there is no going back. The V3 app aims to make this clear and as user friendly to the non-technical as possible.
Because of the amount of code changes after a few bugs were found by @lcfr.eth and @Premm.eth , devs have concluded it’s best to get a new code audit. You can read about that in the post here.
@imrulo.eth I love your passion for reaching global adoption, especially concerning the Latino community. We share similar goals. Many things are in the works to achieve this, and appreciate your feedback and drive to see this happen.
