FAQ *STARNAME

A *starname is a name you can use. It can be your universal username for the blockchain world.

​

•Receive crypto-currencies.

•Keep digital assets in an easily accessible manner with your Starname Profile. 

•Transfer value in a fast, easy, and cost-effective way with blockchain technology.

​

I want to buy a *starname. Where and how can I buy it now?

There are 2 simple ways to register for a *starname:

Via Starname Manager app. (Desktop)

Via Cosmostation wallet (Mobile app)

​

What's the difference between a basic *starname, and a premium *starname?

*starname basic edition:

This type of *starname ends with an open domain such as *cosmos, or *iov. It’s free and can be used by anyone who reserves one. 

For example: veronika*iov / asif*iov / raul*cosmos / lina*cosmos / yourname*iov

 

*starname premium edition: 

This type of *starname starts with * like: *elisabeth / *kim / *sasha / *juicebar / *bankofamerica

 

Premium starnames are used by a company or people who want to have an exclusive and personalized address. Once you own a premium *starname, you can add accounts to it like office*juicebar, merchandising*juicebar and assign them to different addresses.

For example: *mycompany / edward*mycompany / monica*mycompany

​

 

What's the difference between an open domain and a closed domain? 


An open domain is a name that you are the owner and it can't be suppressed or modified. thewizard*iov is an example of an open domain: we can say it derives from *iov, but it can't be modified or managed by anyone else except the owner of thewizard*iov.  

 

A closed domain is the name that the owner can manage and modify all the names derived from it. Example: from *juicebar you can have hr*juicebar, finance*juicebar and marketing*juicebar. All these names can be modified or suppressed by the owner of *juicebar.

​

About changing domains permissions from close to open and managing open domains: these are future features. There is still documentation and some features to be defined regarding open domains so, for now, we recommend you to register your *starname as closed. 

​

​

I can't find *atom, *yawp and *crypto on the Starname App. Where and how can I register those names?
 

These were names registered by Flex Your Crypto, which is a project that uses Starname as part of their NFT crypto names strategy. 
Flex Your Crypto is the only registrars of these names. For further information, check their web.

DISCLAIMER: FLEX YOUR CRYPTO IS NOT RELATED TO THE STARNAME TEAM OR STARNAME PROJECT IN ANY WAY. FLEX YOUR CRYPTO IS BUILT BY DEDICATED SUPPORTERS OF STARNAME PROJECT AND USE STARNAMES ON THEIR BUSINESS MODEL INDEPENDENTLY. 

​

 

Does a *starname expire? Are there any renewal fees?

All *starnames expire: basic and premium editions. Default expiration date for all *starnames, basic and premium, is one year from purchase. After the expiration date, all names have to be renewed and a renewal fee will apply.

Starnames sales and renewals are the
 main blockchain revenue, which is distributed to delegators and validators. 

​

On which wallets can I use my *starname?

With our mobile partners, you will be able to send crypto-currency without the need for long complicated crypto-addresses, you will just need to type the *starname.

Our first mobile wallet integration was Cosmostation wallet. The app is a mobile app and can be downloaded on AppStore or GooglePlay. You can also use your starname on the Starname App and with Sputnik Network.

 

I want to get more technical. How does Starname service work?

The name service is built upon a Cosmos-SDK and functions as a decentralized chain agnostic name service, allowing anyone to personalize their crypto address and use one single address for all chains.

It’s based on Tendermint Bond-Proof-of-Stake (BPoS) Consensus.
