Why Own an NFD?

PreviousThe NFD ProtocolNextMint

Last updated 5 months ago

Simplify transactions

Simplify transactions with human-readable names like staci.algo instead of long, complex wallet addresses. Users are far less likely to make errors when sending crypto to an NFD than to a traditional 58-character address. Non-Fungible Domains (NFDs) are integrated across all major Algorand wallets, explorers, and dApps, making sending and receiving crypto easier, faster, and more transparent.

Self-sovereign identity

Your entire digital identity—linked wallets, assets owned, assets created, social links, bio, DIDs—unified in one profile that follows you across the ecosystem. Say goodbye to creating a new profile for every site and hello to seamless, portable identity.


On-chain and off-chain verifications

You can optionally verify your Discord, Twitter, Telegram, Bluesky, Github, email, and domain, enabling you to establish credibility and trust across various platforms. This allows you to carry your off-chain reputation on-chain & vice versa, building a strong and cohesive digital identity.

Empowering collectors and creators

Multiple wallets can be linked to a single NFD enabling creators to connect all of their works under a single profile. Collectors or creators can advertise their listings on their 'for sale' page, which aggregates listings across all major NFT marketplaces.


Suite of integrations


Multi-chain compatible

NFDs are multi-chain! Any integrator wishing to add support for NFDs can read NFD data from an Algorand node or our public API. You could use your NFD on Solana or Ethereum if the platform supported it!


NFDs are built on Algorand, one of the fastest and most efficient blockchains. Whether you're updating your avatar or adding a new address, every on-chain interaction completes in seconds with ultra-low transaction fees, giving you a smooth and reliable experience.


If you own “app.algo”, you get to decide where redirects to! Each NFD receives it’s own custom URL that takes visitors to your profile by default, and can be set to any website or IPFS CID.

NFDs are built into the Algorand ecosystem with 60+ unique , including , , , , and many more.
