FreeBitcoins.com is syncing Namecoin right now and we intend on listing NMC on our "XChange".

We should be rocking and rolling by the end of the week I'd imagine... assuming she syncs decently!

*tips hat at domob*

Has FreeBitcoins.com disposable deposit addresses?

We have disposable accounts... I think that's safer than having multiple addresses linked to a single account.

If you'd like a new deposit address, just create a new account.

In the future we probably will add disposable accounts for people that more easily want to keep up with their altcoin history + have a little more blockchain privacy.

Similar yes, except this is much older and fully decentralised (while at least .eth has a backdoor, I don't know much about .crypto).

Correction: The Namecoin blockchain is fully decentralized, the Namecoin project itself got hijacked by a guy called Jeremy Rand. Namecoin is his playground, and he thinks the community would have to guzzle what he dishes! Be aware of! See again this thread!

And PS: Everyone should know, that the Electrum-wallet is a light weight wallet without own database, so there are some Electrum server running which are providing the blockchain. So surely this is no longer a real decentralized peer-to-peer network. At the moment there's a server/client model you can call in the best case an hybrid solution! So congrats once again to “J.R.”, who provided "his" Electrum-wallet, leading away from the decentralized nature of the Namecoin-project!

So Namecoin no longer being maintained by the original development team? since when?

Namecoin is still being maintained by the same team and developed with the same direction and goals in mind as for the last couple of years.

Would this be similar to .crypto and .eth TLD?

and concentrate on being just a currency

Because we need another duplicate ? Its better every project recognises and works towards the utility they want to enable, if it already exists in Bitcoin then you are not likely to especially succeed when so many are already out there following the same tracks hoping the same thing. Theres a good graph that goes some way to explaining why BTC manages to continue on as the main blockchain despite the alternatives and I believe its related to security quite strongly, having the longest most established chain. Namecoin does have the years on its side at least so should be more credible then many.

Do you guys have any social media accounts?

Also, what do you do to advertise and market the project?

I invite you to showcase it on the BitcoinRoot project for the general crypto audience to notice your project.

Does the project still works? And can we still get a .bit domain name?

Of course the software works, another thing is that to access a .bit you need to install NCDNS. (before it was even more complex)

See: https://www.namecoin.org/docs/ncdns/

What is happening lately with them? Marketing isn't necessary, companies go into development phases all the time. But what is the best place to find the newest info?
