Does .eth exist?

Not really. Sort of — .eth names exist, but NOT in the regular internet's DNS. They live on the Ethereum blockchain (ENS).

The full story

.eth is the flagship of the Ethereum Name Service (ENS), a naming system that lives on the Ethereum blockchain rather than in the DNS root that browsers use. name.eth resolves in web3 wallets and dapps, but typing it into a normal browser does nothing without a gateway (like eth.limo, producing name.eth.limo). ICANN has not delegated .eth in the DNS, and Ethiopia holds the ISO code 'ETH', which complicates any future application. Two parallel naming universes, one string.

What to use instead

.xyz — The wildcard.io — The default startup TLD of the 2010s.finance — Legible fintech/DeFi signal

Wondering about another extension? Every real TLD is in the directory.
