Re-decentralizing the Internet with Handshake (HNS)

HNS mining is live! Fire up your GPU cards and start mining one of the hottest projects of the year.

Handshake is a decentralized naming and certificate authority. It’s an experimental peer-to-peer root naming system. In simple terms, Handshake sets out to replace centralized authorities such as ICANN and companies like GoDaddy. The developers who set out to build Handshake aimed to make the DNS root anchor decentralized, so that the web is no longer controlled by these centralized third parties.

The project, which has no founding team or marketing budget, is supported by well-known investors including Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Sequoia Capital, and SV Angel. Handshake raised $10.2 million in pledges from its sponsors whilst still in stealth mode back in 2018.

This article will introduce you to the project and give some insights into what problems the developers are trying to solve with their blockchain.

Now you can mine Handshake with F2Pool.
