1. ENS Labs Updates
Partnership announcement with D3 on Doma testnet.
Doma allows you to tokenize your domains onchain.
Once tokenized, you can automatically bring that domain to ENS without custom DNSSEC and other setups.
ENS Labs will be in Dublin for the annual ICANN conference.
ETHRome was last week and over the weekend.
3rd year sponsoring this hackathon
64 projects in total, almost 50% built on ENS
A few projects will present on the Ecosystem call.
To prepare for ENSv2, switch to Universal Resolver is a priority.
Already added to Viem, Wagmi, and coming soon to other libraries.
Test if you have Universal Resolver set up
Test using ur.gtest.eth and check your response.
2. Contract Naming @conor
Contract naming season proposal is live
Goal: Incentivizing contract naming activity with ENS tokens
3. Project Highlights
3.1. Filecoin Pinning Service
Filecoin launched a pinning service using ENS and Filecoin
A crypto-anarchic DevSecOps framework for more secure and self-sovereign frontend deployments.
Goal: create a tool that can address front-end hacks.
Uses Safe’s multisig wallets to confirm new frontend deployments before they go to live / to production.
Versioning is done via ENS.
Each new production version has a subdomain (v1, v2, v3, etc).
Go try it now: npm install autark
The ecosystem funding request has been published.
People are encouraged to ask questions, give feedback, and comment.
Most of the costs are associated with hackathons.
The Ecosystem Working Group is launching a $50,000 Hackathon Expansion Pilot starting November 1, 2025 to broaden ENS participation at in-person hackathons and strengthen relationships with builders worldwide.
The goal is to scale involvement beyond the current level.
The difficulty of objectively measuring metrics related to hackathons.
Discussion around builder retentions and metrics for success.
A large portion (85%) of hackathon spending goes to ETH Global.
The key thing about this pilot is the ability to have hackathons without Greg and Simon being present.
The pilot program is scaling through community involvement, using technical experts to guide participants.
