1. ENS Labs Updates

Presented by Greg (ENS Labs)

  • ENSv2 Apps Announcement
  • Two new apps are being built for ENSv2:
    1. Consumer App: Abstracts complexity and provides a simplified interface for everyday users.
    2. Developer App: A specialized tool for developers and power users with access to detailed data (resolvers, records, fuses, permissions, etc.).
  • Rationale: The current Manager App tries to serve both user types and ends up too complex for most while too limited for developers. ENS Labs aims to clearly separate the two experiences.
  • DOMA x ENS Partnership
    • Partnership has been well-received at the ICANN event in Dublin.
    • Earned positive press for bridging DNS and ENS utility.
    • Signals growing interest from traditional DNS communities in integrating Web3 naming systems.
  • Devconnect / ETHGlobal Buenos Aires
    • ENS will participate in Zero to dApp Day, a full-day educational event for hackathon preparation.
    • Simon (ENS Labs) will present a developer walkthrough on integrating ENS into dApps, alongside projects like Scaffold, The Graph, and Uniswap.
  • Manager App Update
    • A new profile feature quietly rolled out on the ENS Manager app.
    • Social announcement forthcoming — a “mystery update” for users exploring ENS profiles.
  • App Format
    • ENS apps are web applications, not mobile store apps.
    • Launch target for ENSv2: Q1 2026 (as noted in Erin’s recent blog).

2. Contract Naming Season — Next Steps

Presented by Nishchal

  • Proposal & Governance
    • Proposal Link
    • Proposal passed and queued for execution — someone can now execute it to transfer funds from the DAO to the multisig.
  • Community & Coordination
    • A new Telegram channel for open discussion: t.me/c/enscribers/158
    • Weekly meetings are starting; reach out to Connor or James for invites.
    • Plan to host Twitter Spaces (X Spaces) to raise awareness.
  • Collaborations & Updates
    • Working with Namehash Labs on ENS Awards.
    • Expanding DAO integrations — currently includes ENS DAO, Uniswap DAO, and onboarding NounsDAO and Liquity.
  • Technical Discussion
    • Reverse Records: Contracts lacking Ownable or ReverseRecord functions cannot set primary ENS names.
      1. To enable naming, contracts must migrate to versions supporting ownership or reverse resolution.
    • ENScribe’s Role: Exploring mechanisms for proxy/admin-based contract naming, but ownership-based naming remains the best path.
  • Success Paths:
    1. Naming eligible contracts directly.
    2. Publicizing best practices (use of Ownable or ReverseClaimer).
  • Raffy’s Work: Developing ENS Namer, a lighter library alternative to ReverseClaimer/ReverseSetter.

3. Project Highlights

3.1. PinMe.eth.limo

Presented by Ted Liao

  • Frontend deployment tool for decentralized websites using ENS subnames.
  • 150,000+ websites deployed, 5M+ resolutions recorded.
  • Used by devs to host e-commerce, e-books, and censorship-resistant sites.
  • Future initiative: Launching Octant V2 Vaults with ENS Foundation and others (each party depositing 1,000 ETH) to incentivize decentralized web hosting and immutable forever frontends.
  • Potential collaborators: Filecoin, Aptos Liquid, and others.

3.2. LocalSafe

  • Created by Patrick Collins (ex-Chainlink).
  • A static UI for Safe multisigs, hosted on IPFS and resolved via ENS (localsafe.e.limo).
  • Enables multisig transaction management through a trustless, verifiable front end.

3.3. Crefy Connect — Presented by Fadhil Mulinya

  • Human-centered wallet infrastructure enabling seamless onchain logins (email, phone, biometrics).
  • Integrates ENS subname provisioning: developers can let users claim subnames (e.g., user.app.eth) directly from the app dashboard.
  • Supports ERC-4337 and ERC-7702 standards for account abstraction.
  • Dev portal enables wallet linking and subname contract deployment.
  • Contact: t.me/fadhil_dev

3.4. ENScribe App — Presented by Abhijeet Bhagat

  • New Features:
    • Call Data Visualization: Displays transaction call data for setting subnames, forward, and reverse records.
      • Helps devs understand multi-transaction workflows (setSubnodeRecord, setAddr, setName).
    • Contract Naming Library: Integrated with Hardhat ENScribe Plugin, enabling naming during deployment scripts.
  • Supported Chains: Base, Scroll, Arbitrum, and others supporting ENSIP-19.
  • Docs & Resources:
  • Install via NPM: Exposes a simple API (nameContract()), letting devs name contracts programmatically across chains.

4. Upcoming Events

    • Expands ENS capabilities beyond current text records (string → string), enabling storage of more complex or binary data directly on ENS resolvers.

6. Service Provider Updates

  • None this week (many teams traveling for ICANN in Dublin).

7. Open Discussion

Presented by Prem

  • ERC-8004: Agent Registry
    • A new agent identity registry spec integrating ENS at the core level.
  • ERC-8041: Agent Collections
    • Companion standard allowing fixed-supply agent collections, akin to NFTs for AI agents.
    • Related to x402 payment standard.
    • Reference: Tweet by @satsbased

2. Project Highlights [AI agent, Rich]

2.1. Agentic Trust Layer

  • Website: https://www.agentictrust.io/
  • Github: Agentic Trust Layer · GitHub
  • Rich has been working with the ERC8004 team and found that strong names associated with agents are critical.
  • Key aspects of agent identity include:
    • Agent naming (DNS or ENS-based) for readability and discoverability.
    • Association with an onchain address via ERC8004.
  • ERC8004 is an NFT that links to the agent protocol and should have a one-to-one relationship with an onchain account.
  • Architecture and Functionality
    • 3 contracts: agent name, account, and 8004.
    • Agent DID is a key component for A2A communication, using Varamo.
  • A core library with SDKs has been created to simplify the Dev experience.
  • Demo done:
    • The demo showcases an environment where users can create agents.
    • The explorer connects to a subgraph linked to ENS and 8004 registries.
    • Agents are created as subnames on Ethereum or Base.
  • Uses ENS name/subnam verification built by Premm (ENSIP-25).

2.2. Raduno

  • Decentralized Luma-like meetup app.
  • An app for event ticketing rolled into a Base mini-app.
  • Allows searching for events, viewing past events, and creating new ones.
  • Each event is a smart contract.
  • All metadata is stored in the ENS subname.
  • App creates a group in the Base app for chatting.
  • Github repo.

2.3. ENScribe

  • Working on updated contracts.
  • V2 contracts allow batch naming of contracts
  • Also support deploying contracts with different chain resolutions.
  • A new field, “coin type,” allows specifying different coin types and forward resolutions for different L2 chains.
  • Reverse names can be set on any L2 chain.

2.4. ENS Parking

  • ENS Park is a domain parking service that provides information when someone visits a domain.
  • It allows users to transform a “naked” domain into one with all necessary information.
  • It pulls the OpenSea price for domains listed there and displays it on the parked page.
  • Shows if a domain is for sale, provides a link to buy it, and shows. the avatar and banner.
  • Announcement tweet.

3. Review Upcoming Events

4. ENSIP Updates

  • ERC8004 has an ENS name in the metadata, but there is no specification for verifying the ENS name or that the agent controls the ENS name.
  • Hence ENSIP-25 – verify ENS name/subname in the ERC8004 standard.
  • It uses ERC7930 for interoperable addresses.
  • Another update is that ENSIP-24 is very close to being merged.

5. Space for Service Providers

5.1. Namespace

  • Public Avatar Service for names and subnames
  • There is no public ENS avatar service for subnames, which are becoming a primary entry point into ENS, given their widespread use.
  • The service supports names and subnames, as well as avatar and banner.
  • It also supports Smart Accounts and dynamic URLs.
  • Every update is cacheless.
  • It supports pre-uploads valid for up to five minutes.
  • Available on Mainnet and Sepolia.
  • The process involves checking for an ETH address record and signing a simple SIWE message to prove ownership.
  • Verified users receive an HTTP avatar URL.
  • A forum post about the service’s architecture and integration will be uploaded after the call.
  • It’s supported in the Namespace SDK.
  • Namespace quarterly report is out.
