ENS supports resolving addresses at the smart contract level using coin types to represent different networks.
prem.eth@base
The second part of an ENS name represents the chain
To resolve an address on a specific chain, like “base” the standard uses a coin type
There are two ways to determine the chain: centralized sources (JSON on a GitHub repository) and decentralized sources (an ENS registry)
The ENS registry will be managed by ENS and contain chain data, allowing the standard to determine the network an address belongs to.
For EVM chains, the coin type is derived using the chain ID, while non-EVM chains have a different method.
Using the name and coin type, ENSIP-9 can resolve a person’s address on a specific chain.
This is important for seamless interoperability between L2 chains, allowing for human-readable addresses that represent the chain.
Demo: A resolver has been created that works with the centralized list, with ongoing work on the decentralized chain registry.
The resolver can find addresses on different chains (e.g., Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin).
This provides a UX upgrade and drives towards user-friendly interoperability
The resolver builds on prior work by the Interop working group, specifically ERC7828.
The library allows testing of the standard.
The core infrastructure is ENS, making it a public good.
7. Latina Blockchain Hackathon - 2nd edition [Road To Devconnect Argentina] presentation

8. Urbe Napoli Campus & Hackathon report presentation
Presenting results from the Urbe campus in Napoli
Base is supporting with grants and bounties to develop the Italian ecosystem
Five-day boot camp, 20 hours of workshops, 12 attendees
Agenda: introduction to blockchain, solidity, hardhat, etc.
The team is satisfied with the bootcamp outcomes so far and plans to enhance them by offering more practical resources like funding, job, and grant sessions tailored to Web3 builders.
Future bootcamps will include beginner-friendly blockchain and smart contract development, plus AI-driven learning paths based on participant interests.
There’s a noticeable drop in organic engagement compared to 2022
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to engage people, even with good incentives
focusing on the Italian system because they believe it has great potential
9. Open floor for all questions, proposals, and other presentations, etc
