Polygon continued its recent hot streak this week by announcing the creation of .polygon domain names. Similar to the wildly popular Ethereum-based .eth domains, .polygon domains will simplify the user experiences for Polygon\u2019s 180m+ customers. What is a Web3 domain and why are they important?<\/p>\n
What is a Web3 domain?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nWeb3 domains offer important quality-of-life improvements for crypto users. They allow us to navigate Web3 with easy-t0-remember public addresses, think evan.eth or nftbuyer.polygon, instead of traditional public addresses made up of long strings of randomized letters and numbers.<\/p>\n
Perhaps most importantly, however, Web3 domains also help us forge our digital identities. Crypto users can use a .polgyon or .eth domain to broadcast their association with their favorite blockchain. In the process, we can help carve out a spot in the Web3 world to call our own.<\/p>\n
Not surprisingly, major brands have invested huge sums of money to secure their Web3 domains. Most notably, the New England Patriots NFL franchise bought patriots.eth for approximately $1m in Sept 2022 and crypto investment firm Paradigm paid over $1.5m for the rights to paradigm.eth<\/a> in Oct 2021.<\/p>\n![\"Three](\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Capture-12.jpg\")

These domains can be used to access Unstoppable Domains\u2019 more than 750 integrated apps, allowing a seamless login process without the need for passwords or hard-to-remember wallet addresses.<\/p>\n
For the first time, Polygon fans can show off their appreciation for the rapidly-growing Layer 2 blockchain by attaching a .polygon domain to their Web3 persona. By doing so, they\u2019ll also enjoy all the benefits that Web3 domains have to offer.<\/p>\n
The sale will start on March 16 and domains can be purchased through Unstoppable Domains<\/a>.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
