Social Proposals

  1. [Executable] Activate ENSv2
    This proposal activates ENSv2: freezes new v1 .eth registrations, keeps unmigrated names renewable, reserves existing names, then shifts registration and resolution to v2. Owners migrate when ready; Labs hands all v2 admin roles to the DAO after launch.

  2. [Executable] Upgrade DNSSEC oracle and registrar for the 2026 root KSK rollover
    This proposal upgrades ENS’s DNSSEC oracle, registrar and resolver after the 2026 root KSK rollover broke proofs and gasless resolution. It adds KSK-2024, DAO-updatable trust anchors, and security fixes; the DAO now swaps registrar controllers, while all ENS names stay untouched.
