EnCirca to Become First ICANN Registrar to Launch Tokenized Domains and Web3 Identity with Doma Protocol and MyPublicWallet Integration
Tokenization functionality to roll out in the coming weeks, powered by D3’s DomainFi network
BOSTON, May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — EnCirca (encirca.com), a leading ICANN-accredited registrar, is proud to announce its upcoming support for tokenized domain names and Web3 digital identity. This initiative leverages integrations with D3’s Doma Protocol and MyPublicWallet, marking the first ICANN-compliant pathway for domain registrants to enter the Web3 ecosystem.
Launching in phases, this evolution enables EnCirca customers to seamlessly convert traditional domain names into on-chain assets—without requiring technical expertise or cryptocurrency. The first phase—live now—introduces public wallet functionality. Full domain tokenization will be available in the coming weeks.
“Domain names are the cornerstone of digital identity in Web3,” said Tom Barrett, President of EnCirca. “By integrating with D3’s DomainFi network, Doma, and MyPublicWallet, we are providing an end-to-end solution that makes Web3 practical and accessible for anyone.”
Public Wallets Now Live; Tokenized Domains Coming Soon
EnCirca customers can now link any registered domain to a hosted public wallet, serving as their Web3 digital identity, with full tokenization functionality becoming available within weeks. Key features will include:
- Gasless on-chain tokenized domains powered by the Doma open-source protocol
- A public wallet from MyPublicWallet with no need for crypto, seed phrases or installs
- Public profiles hosted on IPFS with contact details, NFT galleries, and POAPs
- Wallet-based authentication enabled for future single sign-on (SSO) applications
- Compatibility with over 400 crypto wallets for DeFi using Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana blockchains
This public wallet integration simplifies onboarding to Web3 for beginners while unlocking advanced features for experienced users.
Doma: Trusted Tokenization for Registrars
Doma is an open-source tokenization protocol purpose-built for domain registrars. It ensures domain names are securely converted into blockchain assets while remaining compliant with ICANN lifecycle policies.
“EnCirca’s early leadership in the DomainFi economy is a perfect example of why Doma was created,” said D3’s CEO and Co-founder Fred Hsu. “Our mission is to help registrars supercharge their growth through Web3 without compromising on ICANN compliance or control.”
Unlike other tokenization solutions, Doma does not require registry involvement and avoids blockchain lock-in, offering a future-proof and registrar-first approach. Doma is planning a Mainnet launch later in Q2 2025.
MyPublicWallet: Web3 Identity for the Mass Market
EnCirca’s new solution also integrates with MyPublicWallet, a turnkey Web3 identity tool designed to be offered by ICANN registrars. It allows users to establish a secure public wallet for identity and authentication—separate from private cryptocurrency wallets.
With no installation or crypto needed, users receive a free hosted public wallet that supports DomainFi and integrates with Ethereum Name Service (ENS), IPFS, and more.
“Complex wallet setups are a key barrier to Web3 adoption,” said Barrett. “MyPublicWallet allows our customers to onboard at their own pace—without jumping straight into cryptocurrency.”
