Question 1

What is DScroll?

Accepted Answer

DScroll is an open-source software application that lets anyone mint and own sovereign Web3 Top-Level Domains (TLDs) as NFTs on the Base blockchain. TLD owners become their own Web3 identity registry provider — like owning your own ENS — with no annual renewal fees.

Question 2

How is DScroll different from ENS?

Accepted Answer

With ENS, you rent a sub-domain under a shared namespace controlled by a DAO (e.g. vitalik.eth). With DScroll, you own the entire top-level namespace as an NFT (e.g. @brand). You control pricing, accepted currencies, registration rules, and earn royalties from every sub-name registration. You are the provider, not a renter.

Question 3

What blockchain does DScroll use?

Accepted Answer

DScroll is deployed on the Base blockchain by default. BNB Chain support is currently under active development.

Question 4

Are there annual renewal fees for DScroll TLDs?

Accepted Answer

No. DScroll TLD ownership requires a single one-time payment to mint the NFT. There are no annual or recurring renewal fees. Once you own a TLD, you own it permanently.

Question 5

What is the DScroll Manager?

Accepted Answer

The DScroll Manager (manager.dscroll.com) is the admin dashboard for TLD owners. It lets you configure sub-name registration fees, set accepted ERC20 payment tokens, lock your registry configuration, set up royalty commissions, and manage airdrop campaigns.

Question 6

Can I use my own token for sub-name registrations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. DScroll TLD owners can configure any ERC20 token address as the required payment currency for sub-name registrations. This creates direct token utility for community projects. If no token is set, the network's native token (ETH) is used as the fallback.

Question 7

What is the white-label app for TLD owners?

Accepted Answer

DScroll provides a free, open-source white-label registration portal (available on GitHub at github.com/dscroll/dscroll-app). TLD owners can clone it, apply their branding, configure it for their TLD, and deploy it in minutes so their community can register custom sub-names.

Question 8

What is the @ naming format used by DScroll?

Accepted Answer

DScroll uses @ formatting instead of dot-notation. For example, instead of 'username.eth', a DScroll identity looks like 'username@eth'. The part after the @ is the TLD you own. This creates a clean, identifier-based Web3 naming standard.
