Great video - i just registered my own but was a bit too much info and not enough explaining with examples like you did here. If they would of just said that this is just like setting up the personalized Paypal Me URL - it would of been less painful process. Thanks for the content, i will share with my peers for sure who are asking about ENS.
with the ENS domain, is it only ETH that you can send them? or does the ETH domain act as the 0xfwrvbrsfb34d0fbd0 number, so u can send any ERC20 token to the domain? Thanks!
good information. I bought from ens site and there were 2 transactions and 2 fees ($167 and $32 and now) and when I go set my primary ENS name there is a 3rd fee - is that right? Do I need to set my primary ENS name? How did this go from $10 to $200. Thank you for your help!
Great video. My question is about security/wallet privacy… do you set this up for your main wallet? You wouldn’t want all of your holdings just out there for everyone to see would you? Thanks.
Yeah usually people split out their funds across multiple wallets, the typical setting is 1. Hot Wallet(where you store smaller amount for fast transaction) 2. Cold Wallet (the key is stored with hardware, like ledger nano or Trezor) but yeah have as many as you like. with other chains which use UTXO though, you probably can have multiple addresses derived from single account, example is Bitcoin and Cardano, so it's harder to track your holdings. If you want complete privacy there are chains like Secret and Monero.
@@DerekEvan ah, yeah, better to main wallet + good if you have a burner wallet that is the wallet that you use to connect to site, and only deposit amount you are about to use. 3 for me, cold, main (use for friends etc), burner (used to connect to dapps, and sites), could be 4 or 5, for more burners.
@@heygema gotcha. That’s my main question. Right now my ENS is in and set to what I would consider my cold wallet… I have a separate hot wallet that I use like to use like you do it sounds. Maybe I’ll get another ENS for my flex wallet 🤔
Thanks! Very informative video! I bought a .eth domain name off opensea and I'm having trouble setting it up. The domain is in my account and there is a message saying No ENS names have their ETH address records set to this address? How do you set Primary ENS Name reverse record?
Question: why should a normal person who does the average investing get a .eth? Or why shouldn't they? I know they did a recent token air drop but the cost of owning an .eth ENS for the everyday person seems questionable
hey, replying months later hoping to help. as the drop in price of ethereum to 1k usd, you can register your ENS for 10 years and it'll cost about 50-75 usd. pretty cheap imo, especially for 10 years.
The Ethereum Name Service (ENS) provides users with the ability to look up their hexadecimal address via a human-readable value. ENS reverse records do just the opposite-allowing users to look up the human-readable address via the full hexadecimal address.
@@e.alexandros lol i spent like $3k on ens names and the issue was the IPFS from their offchain data to opensea so the issue I was having was quickly resolved, I set my primary resolver aswell and had 0 clue about the airdrop i just wanted my name to look cool and got a nice 1.4k tokens LOL
They do have an expiration date, but you can set that to whenever you want (just be prepared to pay more). You can also set up email alerts for 30 days prior to expiration.
I have two ENS and want to sell one of them as an NFT on opensea but it doesn't show up. Even on my metamask only shows one ENS instead of the two ENS. What am I missing?
Sounds like you're trading convenience for privacy??? From the ENS you can see what anyone is doing for in/out flows of ETH in etherscan. Why would I want to promote this publicly?
