Starting today, users can claim their very own .locker, a premium domain name plus a digital identity secured on the Bitcoin blockchain. One name across web2 + web3 ↓ Web2 powers most of the internet you use daily—the social media site you're reading this on, ecommerce platforms, streaming services, and more.
