A .chainwallet name replaces the long hexadecimal address people currently copy and paste to pay you. It resolves to the wallets you choose, on the chains you use, and it stays yours after a single purchase. Because it reads like a name rather than a string, it also works as the label on your profile, your invoice and your business card.
The name in front of the dot. You type it at Freename and see whether it is free.
The ending. It is not for sale on its own — names registered under it are.
In the wallet you connect at the provider. Paid once, held onchain.
Share yourname.chainwallet instead of a 0x address.
Point the same name at addresses on different networks.
Give a shared wallet a name people recognise before they send.
Four addresses that could exist under this ending, and the reason someone would register each one. None of them is taken by us — they are patterns, not listings.
A freelancer or a shop puts one line on every invoice. The wallet behind it can be swapped later without reissuing anything that has already been sent out.
A DAO or a small company labels its shared wallet, so a contributor reads a name rather than a hex string before confirming a transfer.
A personal name doubles as a handle — profile bio, email signature, the address you can say out loud without spelling it.
A platform paying many people keeps one stable destination in its documentation while rotating the addresses underneath it.
Whether a particular name is still free is only visible at the provider. The link opens .chainwallet with the ending already selected.
Anyone who receives crypto regularly — freelancers, traders, DAOs, shops and treasuries. It is the most general-purpose extension in the collection.
One or more wallet addresses, plus optional records for a website, an avatar and social profiles, depending on what the provider supports.
Yes. The records behind the name are editable at the provider, so you can move to a new wallet, add a second chain or update a profile link without touching the name itself. That is the practical argument for putting a name on an invoice rather than an address.
It is worth checking .allcoins when the project is a portfolio holding many assets rather than a wallet receiving payments, and .cryptopolitan when the name will mostly front writing, a newsletter or a channel. .chainwallet is the one to take when the main job of the name is to be paid to.
No. This site is a catalogue. Registration, payment and management all happen at Freename, the provider that operates these extensions.
The name in front of the dot, under this ending — yourname.example. The ending itself is not for sale; names under it are.
