Feature: domain parking

Open Falci opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I would like to propose a standard about parking domains:

We could agree and define a format for a key=value TXT, and promote it for all domains available for selling (Bob or not) The way I imagined: TXT parking-value=10000 HNS (the coin could be optional)

But it would require a contact option: TXT parking=mailto:[email protected]

Why it would be interesting for Bob?

Imagine there's a domain I'm interested in. How could I know if it is available for selling and the owner's contact?

By having a common/standard way of publishing this data, we could have other sites listing all domains, including (but not only) Bob's. This is the parking.sinpapeles.

I believe it could be good for the HNS as an ecosystem.

How?

In domain's management page, we could add a check box: "I'd like to list this domain as available for selling". It would then enable an input for the contact information.

Optionally, the user could inform the price.

Optionally, Bob could also offer a parking page, using some free service. This is like a merchandising for parking.sinpapeles. I would understand if this option don't get accepted.

This information should override the DNS records.

Optionally, Bob could also list any other domain available.

I did the same proposal to namebase.

If you don't have a HNS resolver available, you can also see it at: http://parking.sinpapeles.xyz/

@0xStefan has implemented something similar for Niami: https://twitter.com/DotTheShake/status/1495069243414622210

If there's an HIP for these fields including some for parking, this could be added to Bob Wallet too imo.

I'll create a HIP today and include the parking standards. So we can discuss it further there. I personally like the idea very much

Update HIP created https://github.com/handshake-org/HIPs/pull/46
