This looks legit. I haven't fully crunched through the whole paper but the parts that I have managed to read make sense and seem well considered.

When does it go live on mainnet?

reply

thanks! hoping to go live in the next month or so. Will announce it ahead of time on telegram/twitter

crowd source the stacker news space?

stackers back the stacker space and we migrate over time

reply

hmmmm let's see what the early auctions look like. Maybe we can get sn or stackernews cheap.

Please share the details about its benifits or something?

Hello you can read more about it here: https://spacesprotocol.org/paper/

To be honest, I have read it a few times but I still haven't been able to understand it completely. Because I am not a technical guy.

Usernames (venmo, twitter, instagram, etc..) and domain names, but they don't have to be owned by a trusted third party. They can't be taken away and can be used without permission. It's like getting rid of banks and the fed reserve, but for naming.

Even the encrypted traffic you use to submit to https://stacker.news is signed by someone else's keys (not the owner of this site). It requires the use of a trusted 3rd party certificate authority

Spaces fixes this

Thanks for clarifying.

Yes, I've read it, I also don't understand where this system is actually going.

reply

So, if I own a space name, I own it as a domain? That's what it is used for?

reply

you can use it for anything, it is a generalized decentralized naming system built on Bitcoin. You can use it for nostr, for identity, domain names, to resolve onion address, for bip353, etc..

This looks cool!
It would have been better if you had provided a little context or some use cases in the description!
