ENS seeks DAO approval to activate upgraded Ethereum naming system
New .eth registrations would pause for hours during the transition, while existing domain holders could renew their names without migrating. Ethereum Name Service (ENS) is seeking approval from its decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) to activate an upgraded naming protocol on the Ethereum mainnet. ENS founder Nick Johnson submitted an executable draft proposal to activate ENSv2, the next version of the protocol. If approved, the upgrade would freeze new registrations on the original ENS registrar while allowing existing domain holders to continue renewing their names. The upgrade introduces a redesigned registry architecture with more flexible domain management and permissions. After the activation, ENS Labs plans to transfer its remaining administrative control over the upgraded contracts to the DAO.
