Two of the biggest platforms powering decentralized Web3 domains partnered after Unstoppable Domains announced support for Ethereum Name Service (ENS) .eth domain names.
The two service providers have been central pillars in the Web3 domain space, allowing users to create human-readable domain names and cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Decentralized domains also act as a profile across the entire Web3 ecosystem that unlocks a wealth of functionality.
.eth reaches Unstoppable.
Unstoppable is now your one stop shop for Web3 domains. Buy and manage your .eth, .nft or .x domains, all in one place.
Even better? We’re introducing a new feature that makes buying .eth domains easier and more seamless.

As Cointelegraph previously explored, Unstoppable Domains and ENS accounted for a combined six million domain registrations in early 2023, with registrations increasing markedly starting in 2022.
Users can now purchase .eth names through Unstoppable with additional payment methods and functionality to streamline ENS domain management. All .eth domains purchased from Unstoppable will be registered through the ENS smart contract and will have the same functionality as those registered directly through ENS.

Users can also purchase .eth domains through Unstoppable without having to connect them to an existing Ethereum wallet. This is provided by Unstoppable’s domain vault, a non-custodial offering that allows users to protect Web3 domains without initially having a cryptocurrency wallet.
ENS users can also take advantage of an automatic renewal mechanism through Unstoppable, eliminating the need to renew .eth domains on-chain and the possibility of losing a domain as a result.
The integration with Unstoppable also allows .eth users to purchase their desired Web3 domain with several different payment methods, from Bitcoin and twelve different cryptocurrencies to conventional fiat payment options including credit cards, PayPal, Google Pay, and Apple Pay.
Unstoppable is also developing .eth domain management tools that will include the ability to set cryptocurrency addresses, manage on-chain profile data, and transfer .eth domains.
An announcement shared with Cointelegraph highlights that users who purchase .eth domains through Unstoppable will be able to use ENS integrations. However, .eth domains purchased through Unstoppable will not work with Unstoppable’s 800 or so integrations.
Unstoppable also supports various Web3 domains, including .nft, .crypto, .wallet, .dao, .bitcoin, .polygon, .BinanceUS, and .blockchain.
