Freename put out a press release and video today with regard to integrating with MetaMask Snaps. MetaMask will be able to resolve Freename domains into wallet addresses.
Zurich, March 12, 2025 — Freename, the leading multichain Web3 domain marketplace and namespace platform, has announced its integration with MetaMask Snaps—a significant milestone in Web3. By combining Freename domains with this feature developed by ConsenSys, blockchain-based transactions become simpler, faster, and more secure across multiple blockchains. This integration eliminates cross-chain complexities, allowing MetaMask to seamlessly resolve Freename domains into wallet addresses.
Freename, a pioneer in the Web3 ecosystem, is known for launching decentralized domains across popular blockchains such as Base, Polygon, Solana, Chiliz, SEI, and others. Beyond simplifying wallet addresses, Freename domains offer multi-chain compatibility, enhanced security, and uncompromised data privacy.
As the first ICANN-accredited Web3 registrar, Freename plays a pivotal role in expanding the decentralized web. The integration with MetaMask Snaps marks the next step in managing domains across multiple providers, enabling MetaMask Wallet users to resolve domains from different sources directly to their on-chain addresses.
MetaMask Wallet includes a set of built-in features, but users can unlock additional functionalities for an enhanced experience. To ensure continuous improvements, MetaMask launched MetaMask Snaps, inviting third-party developers to contribute new features. Through MetaMask Snaps, developers can extend the wallet’s capabilities by integrating tools for transaction insights, interoperability, and in-wallet notifications.
As third-party developers continue to build and add new features, MetaMask Snaps will evolve, allowing users to personalize their wallets and enrich their Web3 interactions. This flexibility fosters greater adoption of decentralized technologies and unlocks new opportunities for both users and developers.
The Impact of Freename—MetaMask Snaps Integration
For many users, particularly those transitioning from Web2, interacting with complex alphanumeric wallet addresses presents a significant challenge. This complexity remains a major barrier to crypto adoption, as manually entering or remembering wallet addresses is impractical for the average user.
The integration of MetaMask Snaps with Freename domains eliminates this hurdle. Users can now send and receive payments using domain names instead of long wallet addresses. The “Pay with Domains” feature not only removes the need for manual address input but also enhances privacy by masking the actual wallet address. This results in faster, more convenient, and secure transactions.
Additionally, the “Pay with Domains” feature supports transactions across multiple blockchains. The cross-chain functionality, powered by Freename Resolution Snap, eliminates the need for users to switch networks or copy-paste lengthy addresses, significantly improving user experience.
Freename Web3 Resolver
Freename Web3 Resolver, or Freename Resolution Snap, seamlessly integrates with MetaMask Wallet via the Freename Resolution API. It enables users to resolve multiple domain names from providers such as Freename, Unstoppable Domains, ENS, and others directly to their on-chain addresses.
Built using the official Snap SDK, the Freename Resolution Snap ensures smooth domain resolution, making it easier than ever for MetaMask Wallet users to manage and interact with blockchain-based domain names.
