I intend to do a project on Decentralizing DNS using Blockchain.
As I was researching this topic, Namecoin was a name that popped up a lot. On searching further, I got to know that Namecoin hosts .bit
addresses on its blockchain (Please correct me if I am wrong)
What I want to make is a DNS which does exactly what the current DNS does but remove the need for a centralized server. Meaning, I want to map the IP's of .com
/.net
etc. sites and not introduce a new top level domain.
I do not have an in-depth knowledge about Blockchain. I know what it is and the basic idea on how to make one, but I'm still learning the rest. Its a field that I am very much interested in learning more about.
I just want to know how I can go about fulfilling my requirement. To be honest, I am not even sure on where to start. My current research methodology has been watching the various "talks" about Decentralized DNS on YouTube.
If anyone could help guide me in the right direction, I would be grateful.
Thanks
.eth
addresses? Are you implying that I can use the same principle as ENS to map regular TLD addresses as well? Thanks
