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.

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.
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.
Your NFD isn’t just a name — it’s a fully functional domain powered by native DNS. Through the .algo.xyz TLD, names like app.algo become app.algo.xyz and are accessible from any browser, email client, or DNS-aware application worldwide.
What you can do with NFD DNS:
Host a website — Point your NFD to a web server, Vercel, Netlify, or any hosting provider with A, AAAA, and CNAME records.
Receive email — Configure MX records to use Gmail, ProtonMail, or any email provider at your NFD.
Secure with SSL — Use CAA records to control which Certificate Authorities can issue certificates for your domain.
Verify ownership — Add TXT records for Google, Bluesky, SPF, DMARC, and other verification systems.
Custom redirects — Each NFD gets its own .algo.xyz URL that defaults to your profile page and can be set to redirect anywhere.
All DNS records are stored on-chain in your NFD’s smart contract, giving you self-custodial, cryptographically enforced control — no third-party registrar required. Record changes are signed transactions, and advanced setups like multisig or DAO-controlled domains are fully supported. The DNS resolver itself is open-source, so anyone can run their own.
Learn more in the Native DNS for NFDs documentation.
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.
NFDs are built into the Algorand ecosystem with 60+ unique integrations, including Pera, Defly, Allo, Folks Finance, and many more.
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.
