Description
The simple variant of the Ethereum address
Remembering the 42 characters of the Ethereum address of yourself or your friends is impossible for most people. Therefore, the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) gives users the possibility to associate words or names that are easy to read and remember with their Ethereum address.
The chosen name is automatically translated into a machine-readable address by the ENS protocol.
In addition to ENS names, censorship-protected and decentralised websites can also be created here. These have special security advantages because they use blockchain-based domain suffixes such as .eth.
