A brief thread on ICNS:
1/ ICNS stands for Internet Computer Name Service, it essentially maps human-readable names to your crypto addresses and other custom user metadata. We believe a good name service is the fundamental component of the Web3 ecosystem
2/ it is built on the IC, the one and only truly web3 native platform, integrated with @plug_wallet, @dank_ois & @sonic_ooo's WICP for payment, @cap_ois for history tx storage, it is a demonstration of the capability of IC and the interoperability of open internet services
3/ The distribution of ICNS names will be through auction, name auction is the fairest way for initial name distribution, it helps reflect the true value of a name and avoid bots and whales grabbing too many names at early stage which is bad for the project’s sustainability
4/ To honor early contributors to the IC ecosystem, there is a list of reserved names available for claim after launch, it’s not possible to include everyone in the list but we equally respect all contributors to the ecosystem, thank you!
5/ We’ll be devoted to optimizing ICNS and expanding the ICNS ecosystem after its launch, making ICNS a solid foundation for the future Web3 ecosystem!
Looking forward to the future of #Dfinity! @dfinity @ICPSquad @dominic_w

What is icp.host feature?
1/ .icp is not a top-level domain, so you cannot really use https://dfinity.icp to access dfinity.org
2/ now with .host feature of ICNS, if you set the Host record of dfinity.icp to dfinity.org, you can use dfinity.icp.host to access dfinity.org, .host feature helps bridge the traditional Web2 DNS system with Web3 ICNS system
