Nice project..
I have following twitter and retweet..
Good luck simpleENS

ICO is now live!

Be part of the future of Ethereum addresses!

Simple explanation:

Nick Johnson created a "template" code for name registrars. This template code would allow anyone to create their own registrar.

In one of the versions of that registrar  you cannot register additional TLDs.

However, in my version you can.

This is one of the main reasons for creating my own version.

Let me know if you have other questions

Hello,

Did you navigate to the 'Name Information' tab and enter the name?

If so, what exactly did you type in?

It's working for us.

Thanks for your thoughtful comments.


It's way to early to consider an implementation of the ENS interface as official.

Secondly, we're the only ENS that allow the registrations of name except .eth and .test. So we're not even offering the same service.
Ours implementation is more extensive service.

Secondly, on my site simpleens.github.io users can already use their simpleENS names to send ETH to friends and family.

In fact, we would argue that using simpleENS is the easiest way to send ETH (requires the click of a single button).

So wallet integration is a non-issue.

We will build our own decentralized ETH exchanges (similar to etherDelta). Allowing the use of simpleENS names.

We should be able to convince larger exchanges to integrate simpleENS names, particularly for the use of names with TLDs other than .eth.

Since ENS only uses .eth names, there's no reason for Bitfinex not to implement simpleENS names with different TLDs (e.g. .smith) .

We have decided to retain ownership of the .eth TLD on simpleENS, if there is a collision problem we will negotiate a solution.


You can check on reddit when we first made the announcement.
As far as we know we were the first ones to deploy a decentralized name exchange.

All of our code is original.



Support with exchanges didn't come automatically for ETH Foundation's ENS. It came with adoption of it's ENS.

Our core plan is to market the fact that we allow the registration of other TLDs than .eth and .test
Also that registering a name on simpleENS requires to interaction with complex auction contracts.
Check that a name is available then buy it.

Note that ETH Foundation's ENS is unfamiliar even in the general ETH community.

So we will prepare and launch a carefully considered, monitored and extensive online campaign, precisely targeting all potential ETH users.
This will unfortunately be expensive. From the raw data analysis to the ad properties we will have to purchase.

We've already built a functional DAPP. This was to show the community that we are committed and compentent.
But becoming the dominant ENS service will be costly. So it will require a large investment.

Our goal is for >50% of ETH users to be using simpleENS. Nothing less.

If we do not meet our target. We will still support and market simpleENS.

Our growth will however be slower, and the chance of failure is greater.

We have an opportunity to become the premier ENS provider now. This opportunity may not last.

Let me know if you have other questions

I also got this from FAQ "No, TLDs are restricted to only .eth (on mainnet), or .eth and .test (on Ropsten), plus any special purpose TLDs such as those required to permit reverse lookups. There are no immediate plans to invite proposals for additional TLDs. In large part this is to reduce the risk of a namespace collision with the IANA DNS namespace."

How is it possible that you claim registration of tlds beyond .eth and .test is possible on your platform when the above faq says it is not possible?

I want to search first for name before buying but i cant find where to click is the "search" feature not working?

You don't do a great job in your posting describing the current state of ENS. The de-facto "official" registrar is maintained by trusted Ethereum community members. Nick Johnson et al have released smart contract code making it easy for anyone to host their own registrars, but unless there is community support (from wallets, exchanges, etc.) to use those registrars to resolve the names then it's pointless.

It's akin to running DNS servers that host some TLDs that have no association with root servers.

It's fine and it's not bad, it's just a big stretch to believe that simpleENS will become the premier registrar. It can also be a bit dangerous since multiple registrars could conceivably register the same name and have collisions.

The distributed name exchange idea is a good one as well as the collateralized lending, and code for both of these have already been published and shared with the community on reddit and github. I haven't looked deep into simpleENS to determine originality.

In order for this to really gain momentum it would be great if you could outline your communications thus far and marketing plan with existing services in the Ethereum ecosystem. i.e. have you already gained any support from major exchanges and wallets? If not, I believe a 20k ETH is extremely premature and quite excessive. What will you do with monies raised if you do not hit a minimum target?

This project seems interesting and about to open this ICO.

Thank for your participation!

Task has been done.

Nice ICO just join it...

you not explain alocation bounty
sample alocation signature campaign, alocation translation and more
and signature campaign you not write signature code

That is very soon hours to go , so my luck is getting better , Also I suggest to update the ANN with nice logo and organized graphic because many members here interested in nice logos than the idea itself .

Thanks for your support!

The bounty will end at midnight!

The Idea is very good beside the ICOs there is a free party of free coins given to community for ongoing support . applied to join the party providing future support .
Good luck and Thank you
