User Story

As a One Million Developer Steward I want to more easily onboard developers into Ethereum and the 1 Million Developers initiative using the Ethereum Name System (https://ens.domains/) and the W3C Decentralized Identities specification (https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/)

Abstract

A sub-domain and decentralized identity document are powerful.

They create the foundation for developer profiles, peer-to-peer verifiable credentials, enhanced security through easy-to-read wallet addresses, and many other benefits.

A potential product for the One Million Developers could be a tool to both register an Ethereum sub-domain and also create a decentralized developer identity/profile.

Technical Requirements

Register onemilliondevs.eth sub-domain
Stake OMD tokens to get domain?
Pay to get sub-domain? Funds public utility?
Add decentralized document to ENS TXT record?

Notes

Coogan from ConsenSys

ELI5 TLDR: ENS domain names (such as onemilliondevs.eth) can be stand-ins for hexadecimal addresses (the typical way ethereum accounts are represented), you can read more here [0].

If you own an ENS domain, it’s relatively easy to create subdomains (like coogan.onemilliondevs.eth), which can also stand-in for ethereum accounts. this can be a similar identifier to an institutional email (you know i work at Consensys because i have an email that ends in @consensys.net) and a way to track people using blockchain.

@KamesCG Did one of us buy onemilliondevs.eth? I have milliondevs.eth if we need a backup.
