Namecoin is a peer-to-peer generic name/value datastore system based on Bitcoin technology (a decentralizedCryptocurrency). It allows you to :

• Securely register names (domains for example), no possible censorship!
• Trade and transact namecoins, the digital currency NMC.

Dot-BIT, the first project using namecoin, is building a domain name system (DNS) using the .bit TLD. Our goal is to spread .bit domains by providing resources and tools to the community, from developers to end users.
