Queries are sent to certrelays: https://github.com/spacesprotocol/certrelay
Users publish signed records and certificates there, all verified against the Bitcoin-anchored state root without storing anything on-chain. It's HTTP-based so you can run a Fabric client directly in the browser to find peers and send queries.
the resolver in the hero section of the site is actually a Fabric client, verifying right in your browser: https://spacesprotocol.org/
Now I need to learn how to run certrelay
If you're running a Start9 system, I've packaged it all up for you so you don't have to do any heavy lifting. See the custom marketplace https://registry.spacesops.com
It makes running the certrelay as simple as giving it a hostname and Start9 does the rest.
Any incentive to run a centrelay?
If you run your own certrelay, then your queries are private.
Operators have an incentive to keep the network operational because they sell handles. Users want their handles resolvable too. Luckily, certrelays are small and since HTTP based we can take advantage of caching, CDNs ... etc so quite cheap to run.
Also, no claim mail for me too.
sent an email. thanks
How does the lookup work?
Where is that query sent?
