HNDL (Handle Naming Decentralized Ledger) is an innovative decentralized handle naming system built on the Rootstock sidechain. By integrating Bitcoin's security with Ethereum's programmability, HNDL aims to redefine digital identity management and user authentication across Web2 and Web3 ecosystems. Notably, HNDL is the first project to incorporate Token Bound Accounts (ERC-6551) into Bitcoin layers like Rootstock, marking a significant advancement in blockchain interoperability.

The current landscape lacks a unified, user-friendly identity system on Rootstock, which complicates interactions and asset management for users. HNDL addresses these challenges by providing a streamlined solution that enhances user experience and fosters broader adoption of Rootstock-based applications.

  1. Pioneering Token Bound Accounts

HNDL allows handles to function as smart contract wallets, enabling users to send and receive assets directly through their handles.

  1. Unique Decentralized Identity System

Handles with a .₿ suffix serve as NFTs, providing users with a universal digital identifier that simplifies interactions across platforms.

  1. Sign In With HNDL (SIWH) Protocol

Users can authenticate into applications while retaining ownership of their data through zero-knowledge proofs, perfect for securely storing personal documents.

  1. Advanced Data Management

Users can store various types of public and private data linked to their handles, enhancing functionality and user experience.

  1. Innovative Tokenomics

A fee halving system ensures affordability for users while allowing parent handle owners to monetize sub-handles, creating a digital real estate economy.
