Name Bazaar is an Ethereum Name Service (ENS) name marketplace with an auction style user interface. All Name Bazaar user actions take place on the Ethereum blockchain, which allows for secure peer-to-peer name trading with no added fees. The importance of the ENS is that it does away with hexadecimal addresses and replaces them with human-readable alternatives, which smooths out the user experience and represents an important step for the widespread adoption of Ethereum: “ENS Names reduce the barrier to adoption to ethereum created by complicated hexadecimal addresses”, said P.J. Leimgruber, Head of Marketing at district0x.

If you would like to acquire, sell or trade .eth names and are the owner of an Ethereum address, you can register an account on Name Bazaar. For full functionality, an Ethereum wallet must be attached via browser extensions such as MetaMask.

Name Bazaar is the second project launched by district0x, a network of marketplaces and communities that function as decentralized autonomous organizations called districts. The first district launched on the network was Ethlance, a decentralized job market, and district0x promises many more districts to be added in the future.
