Introducing .🍓 Fully‑Resolvable Emoji TLD Powered by Freename

Emoji domains have quietly been gaining ground, but they just got their breakthrough moment!

 

Freename has teamed up with Strawberry AI to launch .🍓, a human-readable, fully resolvable emoji TLD that works right inside MetaMask, plus any dApp, wallet, or browser using the Freename Resolution API.

For a limited seven-day window, .🍓 domains can be registered through Freename. Each one is human-readable and compatible with MetaMask, as well as any dApp, wallet, or browser that supports the Freename Resolution API.

The launch marks a shift in decentralized identity, pairing visual recognition with native Web3 compatibility and positioning .🍓 as a strong asset for early adopters.

 

What Makes Emoji Domains So Exciting?

Emoji domains fuse text and emotion into a single character, or glyph. 

In domain terms, a glyph functions like a compact logo, one that sits neatly in tweets, wallet interfaces, or QR codes.

Technically, emojis belong to the Unicode standard. To work online, they’re translated into Punycode, making them compatible with the Domain Name System.

That translation still preserves the advantages that make emoji domains appealing:

 

  • Memorable: A single visual symbol is easier to recall than a word.
  • Brandable: The emoji itself acts as a built-in badge or micro-brand.
  • Universal: Emojis transcend language, which makes them inherently global.

Until now, emoji domains existed mostly as second-level domains, think 🚀.com. The launch of .🍓 moves them up to the top-level domain layer, opening the door to Web3 use cases that simply weren’t possible before.

 

What You Can Do with a .🍓 Domain

A .🍓 domain is a versatile on-chain asset. Owners can:

  • Launch micro-sites – Ideal for time-sensitive campaigns, NFT drops, or event RSVPs.
  • Create distinctive identities – Pair emojis for unique personas, such as 👩‍💻.🍓 for a developer advocate or 🎵.🍓 for a music DAO.
  • Simplify payments – Point multiple blockchain addresses i.e., ETH, BTC via Taproot assets, stablecoins to a single human-readable name.
  • Brand an AI agent – Give your GPT or AI assistant a memorable, emoji-based endpoint like assistant.🍓.
  • Collect and trade – Acquire rare combinations (🚀.🍓, 🎮.🍓) and resell them on secondary markets, with Freename’s royalty system ensuring ongoing revenue for the TLD owner.

 

Can You Register an Emoji as a Domain Name?

Yes. Internationalized domain names (IDNs) have supported emojis for years, but in Web2, registries almost NEVER permit them at the top-level domain layer. 

Web3 changes that. Through Freename’s smart contract–based FNS Registry, those restrictions disappear.

That means you can mint domains like:

  • cool.🍓
  • defi.🍓

…directly to your wallet. 

Each one is issued as an on-chain NFT, serving as proof of ownership. There are no renewal fees, no custodial lock-ins, just full control over your slice of the namespace.

 

How Do Emoji TLDs Work in a Decentralised Ecosystem?

Most traditional browsers still rely on ICANN’s root servers, which means they won’t recognize 🍓 domains natively. Freename’s Global Resolution API bridges that gap.

Wallets, browsers, and dApps can call a single endpoint to resolve any Freename, ENS, or Unstoppable domain to its corresponding blockchain address or IPFS-hosted site.

MetaMask already includes this functionality through the Freename Resolution Snap, allowing your    .🍓 TLD to:

  1. Send and receive crypto – Replace a 0x… address with YOURNAME.🍓.
  2. Host decentralized content – Point an IPFS CID or Arweave transaction directly to your TLD.
  3. Integrate with smart contracts – Use human-readable names across DeFi protocols and NFT marketplaces.

Because the Resolution API is public and license-free, any developer can enable 🍓 support with just a few lines of code.

 

Why Did Strawberry AI Choose Freename for the 🍓 TLD?

When Strawberry AI set out to create a .🍓 TLD, they needed more than a registry; they needed infrastructure capable of doing what no legacy provider could. Freename was the obvious choice.

Our technology delivers rapid deployment; a custom TLD can go live in days, not months. It supports resolution across Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, and additional networks from the start. And with our built-in royalty system, partners like Strawberry AI earn revenue from every .🍓 minted or traded, indefinitely.

Pairing their conversational AI expertise with Freename’s domain infrastructure, .🍓 is a fully functional, on-chain asset with real market value.

 

How the Integration Works

From minting to resolution, Freename’s infrastructure handles every stage of the process in a way that keeps the user experience fast and frictionless.

  • Minting: Register a .🍓 on Freename, and a smart contract instantly mints an ERC-721 token to your wallet.
  • Records: Add crypto addresses, IPFS hashes, or TXT records directly through Freename’s dashboard or API.
  • Resolution: When a query comes from Strawberry AI’s assistant or any compatible dApp, Freename’s Resolution API delivers the match. In MetaMask, the Snap resolves locally for maximum speed.
  • Display: The result is a clean, emoji-based address. No Punycode, no hashes, and absolutely ready for Web3.

The full round trip takes milliseconds!

 

How to Claim Your .🍓 Domain Before the Campaign Ends

Securing your .🍓 domain takes only a few minutes.

  1. Connect your wallet at Freename.com and complete registration.
  2. Search your domain. The interface shows availability and mint price in real time.
  3. Mint your .🍓 by confirming the name and starting the minting process.
  4. Approve the transaction. The NFT domain appears in your wallet within seconds.
  5. Configure your records. Add crypto addresses, IPFS sites, or even set up email forwards.
  6. Start using it immediately. In MetaMask, type your 🍓 domain into the “Send” field, and it will resolve automatically.

The launch window lasts one week. Once it closes, premium pricing begins.

 

Where .🍓 Goes From Here

Emoji domains have always drawn attention, but with .🍓 they gain real purpose. This launch demonstrates that emojis can operate at the top-level domain layer, that Freename’s open APIs already enable resolution across wallets, browsers, and dApps, and that collaborations between AI platforms and domain registries can open new streams of revenue and identity possibilities.

For brands, a .🍓 domain is a chance to stand out in a saturated digital space. For developers, it replaces the friction of long wallet strings with a name that is quick to remember and easy to use. For collectors, it represents a scarce digital asset with potential long-term value.
