Spaces Protocol on Bitcoin: Top-Level Names, Burned Bids, and Why the Explorer Still Matters Someone was bidding on every good name. Fees were cheap. Bitcoin was grinding toward six figures. And on a site most Bitcoiners still had not opened, 545 Spaces were already live, with hundreds of registers and a board full of words that look like domains if you squint: @hello, @ask, @fire, @gaming, plus a row of xn-- strings that decode to emoji. https://bitbane.com/spaces-protocol-on-bitcoin-top-level-names-burned-bids-and-why-the-explorer-still-matters/ #Bitcoin #SpacesProtocol #TopLevelNames #BurnedBitcoin

Would You Hand Someone Your Bitcoin Private Key? https://youtu.be/pNlX_E7I1Pw #Bitcoin #PrivateKey #Crypto #Keypair

The problem Bitcoin already solved and the one it didn’t. Bitcoin already removed the middleman from money. The next obvious fight is the middleman on names. This clip was recorded weeks after Spaces Protocol auctions launched on Bitcoin. The thesis still holds. If your stack is self-custodied and your storefront still lives at a rented .com, you only finished half the job. A registrar can still take the door off the building. A Spaces handle is the attempt to put the sign on the same chain as the coins. This is a guide to what Spaces Protocol is, why Bitcoiners keep circling naming, and how to actually get you@bitcoin instead of renting you. com again. https://bitbane.com/the-problem-bitcoin-already-solved-and-the-one-it-didnt/ #Bitcoin #SpacesProtocol #BitcoinNaming #BitcoinStorefront

🥳Buffrr, co-founder of Spaces Protocol joins the show, Inside Bitcoin Spaces with Jason and Andrew. In this episode we discuss how DNS is rented. ICANN, registries, registrars can take your name. A .com is a lease from a registrar, who sits under a registry, who sits under ICANN. You pay every year. They can refuse renewal, seize the name, or change the records. 👉You don’t hold a key that makes the name yours. It's not yours. People say they “own” a domain the way they “own” a phone number. They mean they paid and it’s in their account. The account can still close. A Spaces handle is different: the certificate plus the on-chain root. No yearly ICANN bill for that name. Top-level Spaces stay yours as long as you keep using the Space UTXO. Sub handles never expire. Once issued, they stay with the key. curious@bitcoin is issued, committed as a 32-byte root on Bitcoin, and it does not expire. You truly own your name with spaces protocol, verified on Bitcoin with no middleman. Certrelay is not trusted, nor should it be. Clients verify against the Bitcoin chain. You already trust Bitcoin with your stack. Same chain holds your name. We cover BIP-353 and NIP-05 and why they fall short vs Spaces (see NIP-Spaces), why auction bids are burned in OP_RETURN, sub handles vs top-level Spaces, taking a sub handle on-chain, Nacho backups, Robin@bitcoin's Keybase-style verify idea, the next explorer, upgraded spaces marketplace, NIP-SPACES, and the last TABConf.
