The Concordium Name Service (CNS) is a distributed, secure and extensible naming system for Web3, based on the Concordium blockchain. CNS domains empower users to map human-readable names to blockchain identities, addresses and resources.

To get a CNS domain name, you must have a Concordium wallet/identity. We recommend creating a Concordium wallet by downloading and setting up the CryptoX mobile app. After successfully creating your wallet, you can interact with the CNS app by looking up and registering an arbitrary domain name for yourself. You will be charged for domain registration.

Get your Concordium names at the following yearly subscription fees; (a.) 1 Character: Auction Only (b.) 2 Characters: $150/year (c.) 3 Characters: $100/year (d.) 4 Characters: $60/year (e). 5 Characters: $15/year (f.) 6+ Characters: $10/year Note: This doesn’t account for the network fees on Concordium, which are quite low & almost negligible. The max subscription period or Time To Live (TTL) before renewal is 3 years.

We limit domain character length by the size of data they consume. A domain name in english alphabet or numbers could have as much as 63 characters.

As of the moment, only CCD can be used to purchase a CNS domain.

Yes. There is a flat rate of $2.5 every subdomain created.

Transfer of this token to another wallet means transfer of ownership of the domain name. This makes the CNS domain to be considered as a digital assets/collectibles on blockchain technology.
