Project highlights
Fileverse | Andreas
- Fileverse is a decentralized alternative to Notion & Gsuite tools.
- The UI is stored on IPFS, chat is end-to-end encrypted, and access is filtered at the address level. This means no email or kyc is needed to collaborate and access can be token gated or whitelisted
- Donate via gitcoin

Unruggable Subname Rentals | @Premm.eth and @clowes.eth
-
Premm and Thomas are looking to make changes around 3 current limitations of subname rentals
- There is a single parent level “renewal controller”
- Subname’s in the name wrapper can be hard to verify as “unruggable”
- Burning the fuse of a wrapped domain carries a high degree of risk for the parent domain holder
-
The project introduces the idea of a renewal controller that manages the price of renewals. An indepedent 3rd party in this case could control the price of renewals and prevent price hikes on current subname holders
