The Internet’s weakest trust anchor is the DNS root. Handshake (HNS) replaces it with Mathematics.

The Internet’s weakest trust anchor is the DNS root. Handshake (HNS) replaces it with Mathematics.
The DNS root is the single most centralized layer of the Internet. Handshake (HNS) replaces that chokepoint with a blockchain-secured root: cryptographic ownership of TLDs, DNSSEC by default, and no institutional gatekeepers.

Handshake isn’t about replacing domains like .com.
It’s about replacing the root zone file controlled by ICANN .
Names → cryptographic property, not bureaucratic leases.

Handshake integrates with existing DNS via recursive resolvers.
Resolvers can merge HNS + @ICANN zones → no disruption.
That’s the “soft landing” strategy for decentralizing the root.

DNSSEC is not optional on Handshake.
It’s enforced at the root.
That means cryptographic proof of authenticity is the default state, not an add-on.

Handshake is secured by Bitcoin-like PoW, not proof-of-stake.
That means: censorship resistance is baked in at the consensus layer, not dependent on validator politics.

Early internet domains made millionaires. Handshake TLDs could be the next big opportunity. Own entire top-level domains, not just subdomains. The land grab is happening now.

Why should ICANN control the internet's root zone? Handshake creates a peer-to-peer alternative where no single entity decides what domains exist. The internet belongs to everyone.

Handshake ≠ ENS.
ENS: subdomains of .eth, centralized around Ethereum contracts.
Handshake: owns the root namespace itself, competing with .com, .org, .net.
Different layers, different threats.

Why HNS matters:
Proof-of-Work secures consensus
Bidding + Vickrey auction avoids squatting
DNSSEC baked in from genesis
Names can be bridged to traditional DNS via recursive resolvers

The internet was built to be free and open. Handshake $HNS is taking back control from centralized gatekeepers, domain ownership directly in the hands of users. No more censorship, no more single points of failure. True digital sovereignty starts with owning your namespace.

Did you know that when names are auctioned on the Handshake Blockchain, the winner pays the second highest bid and that $HNS is burned? 🔥
Yep.
Over 10.5 percent (71M HNS) of the circulating supply (670M) has been burned to date. 🔥

China isolated itself from the global internet for an hour on Wednesday.
The Great Firewall blocked all traffic to port 443 when Beijing had no clear reason to restrict its citizens' internet access.
