An alternative name system for I2P: XNS
2d 34m ago by lemmy.world/u/CAVOK in i2pXNS is the eXile Name System. It makes Monero the only source of truth. Each XNS name is a result of a 0.01 XMR burn transaction with the desired name and owner public Ed25519 key.
Now it can be used as the name system of I2P.
Why would you use it all of a sudden? Because currently, there is no safe names in I2P. Unless you use direct b32.i2p addresses, which are not human memorable.
What's wrong with .i2p addresses? They are just entries on your own machine and on jump services. You have to trust those jump services if you share your .i2p address with others and expect reliability. Think of it as .local/.lan names your network router resolves.
While with XNS, once you claim a XNS name, as long as Monero stands, your name will be yours and no one can take it from you.

XNS is made for the Internet of free people. I believe I2P is the only reliable way.
