Naming infrastructure on Chia

Names that carry identity, services, and trust.

NamID is an open protocol for decentralized names, identity records, certificates, and service discovery built around Chia covenants.

Documentation onlyNo wallet keys or signatures
Chia-native designCovenants define ownership rules
Testnet firstProduction claims stay separate
Open verificationSpecifications and source are public
A simple path

Learn here. Use an outlet. Verify locally.

The protocol identity, public products, and engineering laboratory have different jobs. Keeping those boundaries visible is part of the security model.

01 / LEARN

Understand NamID

Read the protocol model, chain guarantees, resolver design, and current limitations at namid.net.

Browse documentation
02 / USE

Visit NamIDBase

Move from documentation to the public user outlet when you are ready to browse or manage names.

Go to namidbase.com
03 / TEST

Enter the Codex lab

Use the separately labeled testnet surface to learn the CLI, wallet, extension, and integration flow.

One protocol, distinct outlets.

A shared protocol does not make every deployment the same service or trust boundary.

PROTOCOL HOME

namid.net

Documentation, company information, integration guidance, and contact identity. Static and non-custodial.

You are here
PUBLIC OUTLET

namidbase.com

A user-facing place to browse, register, and manage NamID names through its own deployment.

CODEX TESTNET LAB

xchfi.com

The proving ground for this repository. Changes are learned and tested here before being ported elsewhere.

EXISTING OUTLET

names.cat

A separately operated outlet with its own deployment lifecycle. This documentation does not alter it.

Protocol layers

More than a domain lookup.

A NamID name can become an entry point for web resolution, wallet addresses, identity, certificates, and application services.

NamingHuman-readable TLD and SLD ownership anchored by Chia singleton lineage.
IdentityDID and profile records selected by namespace policy.
CertificatesAuthenticated certificate records for resolver and browser trust experiments.
Service discoveryTyped records that direct wallets and applications to the right capability.
Build with NamID

Start with the protocol, then prove the integration on testnet.

Company and protocol contact addresses will use @namid.net after authenticated mail and monitored inboxes are configured.
