Unstoppable Domains Pulls Back on Web3 Domains | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
Unstoppable Domains is backing off its ambitious push to get web3 domains like .crypto and .wallet recognized by the traditional internet, citing over $2 million in fees as too steep. Once eager to mainstream these extensions, the company now prioritizes financial sense — with traditional domains making up 90% of their business. Customers who bought affected domains post-March 5, 2025, can request refunds until September 25. While these names won’t work as regular web addresses, they still function for crypto transactions. The company isn’t abandoning domain innovation — five new applications, including .agi and .robot, are in the pipeline with partners like Telegram.
