About RIF Name Service
Ease of use is key for reaching the unbanked and non-technical users. It’s difficult to expect a broad adoption if users must copy and paste long hexadecimal addresses to transfer or receive digital assets. By adding a name resolution service complexity of the system is much reduced. By enabling the use of Aliases, RIF Name Service (RNS) makes the use of blockchain technology easy and intuitive, fostering mass adoption. RNS is utilized across RIF Payments, RIF Storage, RIF Communications and other RIF Services providing a seamless experience to end users. Blockchain interoperability is key for the success of the ecosystem as a whole. RNS provides the first cross platform naming service available for all major blockchains such as Bitcoin, Litecoin amongst others. Built on top of RSK, it inherits Bitcoin's decentralize nature and security. RSK Partners can benefit from the RNS protocol by issuing subdomains.

Unstoppable Domains
To send cryptocurrency, all you need to know is the recipient’s blockchain domain. Send bitcoin, ethereum, and any other cryptocurrency with just one domain. No more worrying about sending to the wrong address. Blockchain domains are owned not rented. Buy the domain with a one time registration fee and never worry about renewals again. The domain is stored in your wallet, just like a cryptocurrency. No one can move it around other than you. Point your domain to content on a decentralized storage network. The domain is stored in your cryptocurrency wallet and can be transferred by you after you claim the name on the blockchain with your wallet.

BTC.us
Bitcoin has proven itself as a store of value protocol. Stacks is on a mission to prove that Bitcoin can also be the bedrock of the user owned internet. Stacks brings scalable transactions and expressive smart contracts to Bitcoin, putting Bitcoin’s $1T capital to work. .BTC domains are registered through a smart contract on Stacks, secured by Bitcoin. This smart contract implements a decentralized name registry written in Clarity lang. Ownership of every .BTC name is represented in a hash of the Bitcoin blockchain. Instead of spamming the bitcoin blockchain with name registrations, thousands of Stacks transactions settle in a single transaction on the bitcoin blockchain. The web bridge turns btc.us into the top level domain and allows users to generate subdomains for their personal use. The web bridge is a centralized service, but .BTC names are not. In the future, there can be better support for .btc resolution in browsers.

Namecoin
Namecoin is an experimental open-source technology that improves the decentralization, security, censorship resistance, privacy, and speed of certain components of the Internet infrastructure such as DNS and identities. (For the technically minded, Namecoin is a key/value pair registration and transfer system based on Bitcoin technology.) Namecoin was the first fork of Bitcoin and still is one of the most innovative “altcoins”. It was first to implement merged mining and a decentralized DNS. Namecoin was also the first solution to Zooko’s Triangle, the long-standing problem of producing a naming system that is simultaneously secure, decentralized, and human-meaningful. Protect free-speech rights online by making the web more resistant to censorship. Attach identity information such as GPG and OTR keys and email, Bitcoin, and Bitmessage addresses to an identity of your choice. Decentralized TLS (HTTPS) certificate validation, backed by blockchain consensus.
