As the platform passes one year since its Bitcoin NFT marketplace was released, Gamma.io has launched a .btc domain marketplace for web3 decentralized identities.
, /PRNewswire/ — Gamma.io, the leading open marketplace for Bitcoin NFTs, has announced the launch of its BNS marketplace for .btc decentralized identities and domains, built on the Stacks programming layer for Bitcoin. Within hours, the domain marketplace was trending, with .btc domains becoming the most popular NFTs on the platform.
In April, the company announced its new brand, Gamma, and its plan to become the world’s web3 social hub centered around NFTs. As digital asset ownership proliferates, Gamma will provide a platform to serve as the home for collectors, creators, and investors to come together to explore, trade, and showcase extraordinary NFTs through the Bitcoin ecosystem. Decentralized identities are a natural evolution and expansion of the kinds of use cases that the company is facilitating.
“At Gamma, we strongly believe in the future of decentralized identities, and we’re excited to take this step in furthering their adoption on the most secure blockchain, Bitcoin,” said Founder and CEO, Jamil Dhanani. He continued, “Bitcoin was the original home for decentralized identities on the blockchain. Recent technological breakthroughs using the Stacks programming layer have unlocked the user experience needed to make them a reality, in a way web3 users have come to expect from other decentralized identities, like those on Ethereum.”
In recent months, the Ethereum Name Service, ENS, has exploded in growth and popularity as more web3 users discover the power of decentralized identity. BNS seeks to revitalize the initial vision of human-readable Bitcoin addresses and a user-owned internet.
