Your keys. Your names. Today we're launching Namebase Wallet — a new self-custody home for Handshake. Hold your HNS. Hold your TLDs. Participate in auctions. Manage on-chain DNS. And for the first time... Resolve Handshake names directly from your wallet. Under the hood, it's powered by our new node, built for much faster synchronization with much less storage. Starting fresh? Create a new wallet => namebase.io/wallet Use Bob or Shake Wallet? Restore your existing wallet using your recovery keys — easily bringing your HNS and names into a totally new Handshake experience. Your keys. Your names. 🤝

Every top level domain owner listed at namebase.io can now enable Namebase Chat on their TLD and communicate directly with their community of domain registrants, publicly or privately. nitter.gq/NamebaseHQ/status/2081…

📢 New Namebase Update While we do not intend to continue operating a custodial platform, we believe we have found a path forward for Namebase as a non-custodial Handshake registry and infrastructure provider. To make that transition possible, Namebase will be taken offline in approximately 72 hours while we migrate data and infrastructure to a new architecture. When Namebase returns: ✅ BTC withdrawals will be available ✅ HNS withdrawals will be available ✅ Staked name withdrawals will be available ✅ Users will be able to opt into the new non-custodial Namebase Registry ✅ HNS ID will return as part of the broader Namebase Registry platform Expected Timeline: • BTC, HNS, and TLD (including staked) withdrawals/transfers should become back on line and available approximately 24 hours after shutdown. • The new non-custodial Namebase Registry will take a bit longer. We currently expect it to be available within 1–2 weeks, though we are optimistic it may be ready sooner. HNS ID, registry services, and domain infrastructure will come together under a unified non-custodial architecture designed to support the next chapter of the Handshake ecosystem. More details on withdrawals, registry participation, migrations, and timelines will be shared soon. Thank you for your patience and support. 🤝
