4 Million Unstoppable Domain Users Gain Cross-Chain Name Resolution on MetaMask

Unstoppable Domains, the largest onchain domain name provider and digital identity platform, today announced the launch of their own Metamask Snap, a game-changing integration that enables the direct resolution of Unstoppable’s existing and future domains within MetaMask — the self-custodial digital wallet and web3 gateway from Consensys trusted by millions of users. 

MetaMask Snaps are third-party wallet extensions that allow users to add additional features and functionalities to their MetaMask wallet. The Unstoppable Domains Snap significantly expands MetaMask’s name resolution capabilities by allowing users to swap out complex alphanumeric wallet addresses for easy-to-remember domain names across 23 blockchain networks, including Ethereum, EVM-compatible chains and major Layer 2 networks — a feature that has been the number one request from the Unstoppable Domains community for the past three years. 

This creates a unified experience across blockchains, streamlining transactions and offering a smoother, more intuitive crypto interaction within one of the most widely used crypto wallets. The Snap also simplifies domain resolution, easily resolving Unstoppable Domains to wallet addresses and vice versa across this broad spectrum of networks and ecosystems.

“Launching our Snap on MetaMask is a major milestone in our mission to bring the benefits of onchain technology to as many people as possible,” said Sandy Carter, Chief Operating Officer at Unstoppable Domains. “This integration represents a significant advancement in enhancing the onchain experience. It simplifies the process, reduces friction, and helps users get the most out of their digital identity across multiple networks. Now, it will be easier than ever for people to utilize our domains while leveraging the simplicity and interoperability of MetaMask.”

To get started, users simply need to download and install the Unstoppable Domains Snap extension for MetaMask. This quick, straightforward download is required to resolve every onchain domain naming service. Once installed, Unstoppable Domains will be fully compatible with MetaMask, allowing for seamless crypto transactions using human-readable domain names like .crypto across 23 different blockchains, expanding far beyond the previously supported .eth names on Ethereum.

“We’re thrilled that Unstoppable is leveraging Snaps to simplify and streamline the wallet experience for millions of users,” said Christian Montoya, product lead at Metamask. “Their Snap aligns perfectly with our own mission to facilitate the creation of intuitive, community-driven features that enhance the user experience across multiple blockchain networks.”  

This integration has the potential to impact millions of users, including the over 4 million existing Unstoppable Domain holders. The wider domain compatibility and cross-chain functionality aim to solve key pain points experienced by new users and crypto veterans who want a more streamlined experience managing transactions across a diverse range of blockchain networks.
