No sir, only if you want to transfer assets or get USD etc. You can bid still.

From their restrictions page: Due to regulatory reasons in the US (we're not happy about it either), Namebase accounts are restricted in functionality until they have successfully been verified. Once an account has been verified, it'll be able to:

    Trade on Namebase Pro (non-US only)
    Withdraw HNS (non-US only)
    Buy and Sell HNS with BTC (global)
    Buy and Sell HNS with USD (US only)
Before an account has successfully verified, it'll still be able to:

    Transfer HNS into its cloud wallet
    Bid on Handshake names
    Withdraw Handshake names

I went over their site. I'm a big fan of the nextdns project and the handshake project. DNS.live is a hub that lists top sites hosted with the TLDS from Handshake and offers free stuff. Basically the Handshake gTLD directory to make it easy to check out other people's sites as decentralized DNS evolves and see when names become available.

Websites instead of being http://whatever.com are just http://whatever/

It offers free free NS Hosting, free web hosting, free blog hostting, and free URL redirection for Handshake.org TLDs. No account is required (as per their website): https://dns.live/hosting.html

is the free hosting link

To learn more about it they have a start page: https://dns.live/start.html

And here are two excellent turorials on it: https://www.namebase.io/blog/how-to-access-handshake-domains... and from Namebase.io (the ONLY TLD auction) has a good write up on NextDNS and how to get it going: https://www.namebase.io/blog/how-to-access-handshake-domains...

Namebase.io is like the auction system to obtain the domains, dns.live lists them and offer hosting

For me I just enabled Nextdns on all my devices and checked the handshake slider so I can see websites like http://ix

Regular dns works as it should and it blocks trackers etc.

NextDNS is great for all my devices. let's me access Handshake domains easily from https://dns.live

The default blacklist for NextDNS is really good too; stops a lot of Windows phone home stuff too, and can easily see all that.

Don't add a bunch of blacklists though or websites break
