Doma Protocol Launches Mainnet
The post Doma Protocol Launches Mainnet appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
As tokenization continues expanding into real-world asset classes, blockchain developers are now turning toward one of the internet’s most established markets: domain names. Today, Doma Protocol launched its mainnet, introducing what it calls the first DNS-compliant blockchain infrastructure for transforming traditional Web2 domains into programmable DeFi assets. The rollout aims to modernize the $360 billion secondary domain ecosystem through fractional ownership, ERC-20 trading, and cross-chain liquidity — all while preserving DNS resolution and adhering to existing regulatory frameworks.

At mainnet launch, users can tokenize and trade premium Web2 domains like .com and .ai names as ERC-20 tokens, unlocking programmability and market access for traditionally illiquid assets. “Domains have always been among the most undervalued internet assets — historically illiquid, slow to transfer, and only accessible to well-capitalized buyers,” said Michael Ho, CBO at D3 Global. “Doma makes these assets programmable and tradable, turning static digital real estate into a liquid market.” Testnet Data Hints at Developer Demand The mainnet rollout follows a 5-month testnet phase that saw over 35 million transactions and 1.45 million addresses, according to project data. More than 200,000 domains were tokenized across the test environment, with use cases like software.ai demonstrating onchain fractional trading while maintaining full DNS resolution. A $1 million developer fund, launched under the Doma Forge initiative, is designed to accelerate integrations and DeFi experimentation on the protocol. Market Context: Domain Industry Scale Meets Liquidity Gaps The domain name ecosystem is massive — with over 368 million domains registered globally as of early 2025, according to Hostinger. Yet despite that scale, the secondary market remains highly fragmented and illiquid. Sponsored Sponsored Public…
