SPACE ID was founded In April 2022 with its long-term vision stated, which is to become the gateway between decentralized identities and the real world with a universal domain name service.
In August 2022, SPACE ID 1.0 was launched with a .bnb Name Service on BNB Chain. In these 6 months, SPACE ID quickly gained a total of around 361,000 registrations and 168,000 unique domain holders and the .bnb Name Service has completed integrations with over 100 leading projects and protocols such as BscScan, Trust Wallet, TokenPocket, BitKeep, etc. At the same time, a series of features such as Gift Cards, Domain NFT Skin, Referral Program, and Voyage Series has been launched.
And today, we are overwhelmingly thrilled to present you SPACE ID 2.0, the next-gen revolutionary upgrade to the entire SPACE ID ecosystem, as well as a massive step towards realizing our vision. The upgrade promises to bring a new level of efficiency and user experience, and provide a more advanced and innovative solution for the web3 domain infrastructure.
Introducing SPACE ID 2.0: One Place for Digital Identities
As the world moves further into the web3 age, decentralized identities have become an increasingly crucial aspect of any web3 presence; a vast number of domain name providers have emerged in a short period of time, and owning multiple identities became nothing new. However, no matter what domains you own, it’s always a headache to search, register, and manage different domains, and the existing NFT marketplaces are not built for trading domain NFTs; ENS users have to set their primary names or controller on ENS App, while .bnb owners need to find a BNB Chain marketplace to list the .bnb domains they want to sell…
Enough of that! SPACE ID 2.0 thus offers a one-stop web3 domain & identity platform to discover, register, trade, and manage web3 domains. It also includes a web3 name SDK & API for developers across blockchains and provides a multi-chain name service for everyone to easily build and create a web3 identity.
One-stop Web3 Domain & Identity Platform
The SPACE ID one-stop web3 domain & identity platform is exactly what it sounds like — an innovative infrastructure that allows you to manage all aspects of your domains in one place. No more using multiple products for different domains. Everything you need is over here, in the palm of your hand at the same time.
It mainly arms the following four actions:
- Discover: A central hub for users to search desired names in all supported TLDs, as well as discover trending domain collections. It supports functions like auto-suggesting and the quick check on the domain registration status
- Register: Users can now register for all web3 domains on the SPACE ID Mainnet. The .bnb and .eth domains will be the first two TLDs to be supported in our first version of Mainnet.
- Trade: A marketplace that is specifically designed for trading web3 domains, with aggregated liquidity from other marketplaces such as OpenSea
- Manage: One single integrated portal to manage the renewal, record, and ownership of all your web3 domains
Multi-chain Name Service
SPACE ID introduced .bnb Name Service on BNB Chain and built a community of 168K unique domain holders within 6 months, and we are now bringing the multi-chain name service. As mentioned in previous posts, supporting more TLDs and blockchains is always one of the priorities of SPACE ID. In the upcoming SPACE ID 2.0, we will not only continue focusing on .bnb Name Service, but also see some significant progress in terms of the support for more Top Level Domains. This includes but is not limited to the new TLDs that will be launched by the SPACE ID team, plus we are expecting to see other domain providers joining us with this ground-breaking multi-chain name service feature.
SPACE ID has already come in contact with many industry partners on various blockchains, and we are confident to share with you that the SPACE ID ecosystem will expand exponentially in no time. Stay tuned for more announcements in the following weeks.
Web3 Name SDK & API
One SDK for all has always been one of the main features of SPACE ID to support all web3 dApps. It is ultimately designed to be a unified and streamlined approach that greatly simplifies the integration of web3 services, eliminating the need for developers to work with multiple protocols, saving time and reducing the risk of compatibility issues.
Moreover, equipped with all the other upgrades in SPACE ID 2.0, our Web3 Name SDK has gained more horsepower than ever, and aims to empower communities and partners to grow and better engage with users by leveraging custom domain names. We’ve added an all-in-one API on top of the SDK, which helps provide a much more comprehensive platform for integrating web3 services into any application. With its significantly improved versatility, scalability, and future-proof design, it is poised to become a game-changer in this web3 age, and our 100+ integrated and future partners only need to integrate this one Web3 Name SDK to connect to all naming data owned by users.
What’s Coming After SPACE ID 2.0?
The objective of SPACE ID is always simple and remains the same; the vision of a universal name service network has been the driving force behind our work, but getting there is not going to be easy. SPACE ID 2.0 marks an essential step towards making this objective a reality and serves as a strong foundation for future developments and advancements in the web3 identity space. Keep in mind, with each new step, SPACE ID is moving closer to becoming an all-in-one universal digital identity solution.
