What Are KNS Domains?

KNS (Kaspa Name Service) is a protocol on Kaspa L1 that lets you register human-readable domain names for your wallet address. Kasanova supports KNS so you can use memorable .kas domains like alice.kas instead of long addresses.

The Problem It Solves

Your wallet address is this: kaspa:qpsh8rz7zsgzk2jkpsd8llxl0u4ktvxz8zngzmqd45k2w8j8lmgqlkm...

It's long, hard to remember, and easy to mess up.

With KNS, you can just say: alice.kas

Much better, right?

Why You Want One

Easy to share: "alice.kas" beats typing a 50-char address ✅ Easy to remember: Your name, not a random string ✅ Looks professional: Shows you're serious about Kaspa ✅ Build identity: People know who you are ✅ Trade it: Sell domains for profit if you want
