What is Fuel Name Service (FNS)?

FNS provides a decentralized and secure way to associate user-friendly names with Fuel blockchain addresses. Instead of dealing with lengthy and complex addresses, users can send and receive assets using simple and memorable names like example.fuel.

Key Features of FNS

• Decentralization: Operates on the Fuel blockchain, ensuring trustlessness and resistance to censorship.

• User-Friendly: Simplifies transactions by replacing cryptographic addresses with readable names.

• Secure Mapping: Associates names with addresses securely, reducing the risk of errors in transactions.

• Integration: Compatible with wallets, dApps, and other services within the Fuel ecosystem.

Why Use FNS?

Enhanced User Experience

FNS makes blockchain interactions more intuitive. By using easily recognizable names, it lowers the barrier to entry for new users unfamiliar with blockchain technology.

Reduced Transaction Errors

Using human-readable names minimizes the risk of sending assets to incorrect addresses due to typos or miscommunication, enhancing the overall security of transactions.

Personal and Brand Identity

Individuals and organizations can register names that reflect their identity or brand, providing a consistent and professional presence within the blockchain community.

Seamless Integration

FNS is designed to integrate smoothly with existing tools and services on the Fuel network, making it convenient for developers and users to adopt.
