☎️ ENS Ecosystem – Weekly Meeting: 11am ET, Thursday – Term 6

🌱 ENS Ecosystem Meetings
61

1. ENS Labs Updates

  • L2 primary names are live at the protocol level
  • A demo walkthrough is available to show how it works
    • Greg’s address is the only test case: 0x179A862703a4adfb29896552DF9e307980D19285
    • Test directly here.
  • Integrations for VIEM and WAGMI are coming next week.
  • If you wanna use it before those integrations are live, see this.
  • Base will be migrating existing records to the new official reverse registrar on Base in a few weeks.
  • ENS Node has support for all of this that is going to ship.
  • Idea to expose an API where an app can request the primary name for an address, providing an ordered list of chains to check
  • It will take time for the basics to proliferate through libraries and apps.

2. Project Highlights

  • /

3. Review Upcoming Events

4. ENSIP Updates @jthor

  • DService Text Records: specification for putting a list of URLs in an ENS name
  • Made a PR to the ENSIP repo.
  • Every DApp needs an indexer, leading to reliance on centralized infrastructure or building their own.
    • This creates a UX issue where a decentralized app hosted on ENS relies on a single endpoint controlled by the developer.
    • If the developer shuts down services, the app becomes unusable.
  • DService text records allow dynamic updates without redeploying applications

5. Space for Service Providers

5.1 JustaName

  • Big release went live with infrastructure optimization
  • Three main items: 1) admin dashboard revamp, 2) allowed domains for API keys, and 3) new functionality called Records for offchain subnames
  • Admin Dashboard:
    • Shows analytics to communities about ENS usage at the workspace level
    • Displays ENS names, resolution counts, and claimed subnames
    • Analytics on the ENS level include community, cointype distribution, and text record distribution
  • Allowed domains:
    • Addresses the issue of API key security during client integration
    • Developers can add allowed domains that are permitted to use the API key
    • API requests are checked to ensure they originate from allowed domains
    • Enables direct frontend integration without serverless functions or a backend
  • Records functionality:
    • Addresses the issue of resolving offchain subnames
    • The first request returns a response that gives the keys of those records
    • Allows clients to use those keys and get all of the data that is attached to the name

(I tried to make this say nick.eth, jefflau.eth, and avsa.eth flowing into one stream called ens.eth. This was as close as i could get.)

1. ENS Labs Updates

  • L2 primary names: Integrations moving along
  • Greg rewrote the docs around primary names and reverse registrars
  • Feedback button added to the Docs pages
  • Integration highlight: Gemini launched a smart wallet + ENS subnames
  • Simon’s going on Gemini Livestream
  • Greg is speaking at the World of Apps event later hosted by Nouns and the EF
  • ETHGlobal New York workshop this week

2. Project Highlights

Simple Page

  • Joel wrote an ENSIP - DService and presented last week
  • Used that IP to build a Simple Page
  • The project started as a way to publish a blog on the ENS name
  • Editable in browser, supports file uploads, pictures, etc.
  • Version control is available to see previous versions
  • Each new blog post is essentially a fork and a new deployment
  • To solve the problem of indexing websites published on IPFS, an indexer was created to look at published websites
  • The goal was to make the tool decentralized and censorship-resistant
  • URL of the indexer can be stored on a text record in an ENS domain
  • Works with a subscription-based model like ENS (1$ per month)

ENScribe

  • Accelerating smart contract naming using ENS
  • Integrated L2 primary names for contracts
  • Developers can now name their contracts on L2 networks

Proposal Review - Squid SDK

  • Reviewed the proposal about decentralizing the indexing stack for the ENSNode that currently uses Ponder
  • Barry’s team put together a demo of how to run the stack and rewrote the ENS subgraph to use their indexing stack using the Squid SDK
  • There are 3,000 workers who distribute this data in parallel
  • They aim to decentralize the entire indexing stack

3. Review Upcoming Events

  • ETH Global New York
  • The next one is Devconnect in Argentina

4. ENSIP Updates @raffy

  • New proposal for ERC-7996
  • ERC 7996 is for things that don’t have interfaces
  • It allows contracts to indicate their ability to digest specific call data types, like multicalls
  • ENSIP-22 (based on EIP-7996) defines a way for resolvers to declare and implement extra “features” via ERC-165
  • ENSIP-23 – Standardizes the universal resolver
  • The universal resolver now has a standard interface with three functions: find resolver resolve (forward resolution), and reverse (primary name resolution)
  • The Universal Resolver is not actually a resolver
