Freename combines traditional DNS and blockchain capabilities to enable domains that resolve to IPs, wallet addresses, smart contracts, and on-chain reputations. Its platform supports major blockchains such as Polygon and Solana and works through standard browsers via a proprietary resolution protocol for Web2–Web3 interoperability. The company offers collision management to resolve duplicate domain names across blockchains and lets users create and monetize custom top-level domains. Freename aims to improve blockchain metadata and bridge conflicts between IP and wallet addresses to unify digital identity ecosystems. It recently closed a $6.5M Series A and plans to use the funds to drive product innovation, expand globally, and further unify Web2 and Web3 identity systems. The company emphasizes a strong regulatory posture and intends to enable regulated handling of wallet-address resolution while preparing additional products for release. Freename provides infrastructure for Web3 domains, allowing users to register and mint TLDs and SLDs on multiple blockchains for uses such as crypto payments, web2 and web3 email, browsing traditional sites, and building decentralized websites. The platform lets participants earn royalties and offers options to trademark Web3 TLDs and domains to protect identity. Freename has issued more than 5,000 Web3 TLDs to date and is growing its team and community. The company is moving toward interoperability to converge Web3 with Web2 and improve the user experience. Management says the recent seed funding will help accelerate those interoperability and product goals. Freename was founded in 2021 in Wollerau (Kanton Schwyz).
