Bitcoin.com has announced a partnership with Freename, the world's leading Web3 domain platform, to bring human-readable domain names to the Bitcoin.com Wallet. Users can now send and receive cryptocurrency using names like yourname.sat or even yourname.com instead of lengthy, confusing wallet addresses — making crypto transactions as intuitive as sending an email.
“Crypto shouldn't feel like a cryptic code. It should feel like sending a message or email,” said Corbin Fraser, CEO of Bitcoin.com. “By integrating human-readable domains into our wallet, we’re making self-custody and peer-to-peer payments as intuitive as possible.”
Own Your Name. Use It Everywhere.
Through Freename, anyone can register a .sat or other personalized Web3 domain and connect it to their Bitcoin.com Wallet. Once set up, that name becomes your universal identity across crypto — usable for sending, receiving, and even building your Web3 presence. Bitcoin.com has also added a new “Domains” section inside the Wallet’s Web3 Explorer, where users can easily browse and register domains through Freename — starting with the .sat top-level domain.
“Partnering with Bitcoin.com brings human-readable domains into millions of wallets, helping people turn their digital identity into something they own and use everywhere,” said Mattia Martone, COO and Co-Founder of Freename. “Bitcoin.com shares our vision of making blockchain identity simple and universal. This partnership brings that vision to millions of people around the world.”
Why It Matters
Crypto was meant to be peer-to-peer — but technical friction has always stood in the way. By replacing cryptographic addresses with human-readable names, Bitcoin.com and Freename are helping restore the original spirit of crypto: direct, simple, and personal exchange between people, without intermediaries. With support for .sat, .anyname, and even .com domains, Bitcoin.com Wallet is now one of the first self-custodial wallets to make naming the new standard for transactions — bridging the familiar world of the internet with the freedom of Web3.
Why Freename Stands Out
While many platforms let you register blockchain-based domains, Freename offers distinct advantages for everyday users:
- Web2 + Web3 Interoperability: Freename is an ICANN-accredited registrar, meaning it supports traditional domain endings (like .com) and Web3 domains in the same place.
- Create and Monetize Your Own TLDs: With Freename you can not only grab yourname.sat, but you can establish your own top-level domain (TLD) and earn when others register under it.
- Bridge Between the Familiar and the New: Because domains like .com are tokenized on-chain alongside Web3 domains, your established web2 presence can work with your crypto identity — reducing friction for users new to crypto.
- Utility Beyond Wallet Addresses: Freename domains offer extra use-cases, such as connecting to websites, email, or payments — making the domain identity more than just a wallet alias.
In short, Freename brings both Web2 and Web3 worlds together — which fits perfectly with Bitcoin.com’s mission of making crypto accessible to everyone.
