About Handshake
Handshake is an experimental decentralized naming network that replaces centralized root-zone control with a proof-of-work blockchain and cryptographic proofs. Network participants validate and manage name ownership, register names through HNS-based auctions, and can use the system for decentralized DNS resolution and certificate-related trust. The project provides open-source node, resolver, miner, and airdrop software, while describing itself as a decentralized protocol and loose consensus rather than a centrally controlled organization.
