Mapping to public addresses

• Tokens are mapped using chain code and token code. This allows the FIO Handle to be mapped to different public address, even for tokens on the same chain.

• FIO Foundation publishes coding standard to ensure all clients use the same codes. Over 6,000 tokens have been standardize, but anyone can add new codes as they are launched.

• FIO Handle can also be mapped at the chain level, ensuring every current and future token code is mapped to a single FIO Handle.

• Mappings support uri parameters in the public address, which enables the transaction to include additional parameters, such as memo or destination tag.

FIO Domain

• FIO Domain is part of the FIO Handle and can be used to brand or customized the handle itself.

• Most users will register a FIO Handle on one of the many public domains maintained by the community, e.g. @hodl, @wallet.

• Many integrators choose to offer FIO Handles on branded domains, e.g. @opera, @edge.

• FIO Domain owner can choose to make the domain public, which allows anyone to register FIO Handles on it, or keep it private, which make them the only registrar.

• Just like FIO Handle, FIO Domains are NFTs owned and controlled by a private key on the FIO Chain.

• FIO Domain ownership can be transferred to any public key.

• FIO Domains can also be wrapped (transferred over) to Polygon blockchain, so that they can be listed on public marketplaces, such as Opensea.

Renewals

• To reduce squatting, FIO Domains are valid for a period of 1 year from the time of their registration.

• If not renewed, the domain:

  • Disallows any new FIO Handle registrations (0-30 days after expiration)

  • Stops FIO Handles on that domain from functioning (31-90 days after expiration)

  • Domain and all FIO Handles on that domain are burned (90+ days after expiration)

• Anyone can renew any domain, even if they do not own it, as long as they pay the renewal fee

Wrapped FIO Domains on Polygon

• FIO Domains NFT can be wrapped (moved) to the Polygon chain to enable trading on common NFT Marketplaces

• Wrapping and unwrapping (moving back to FIO Chain) is accomplished using a decentralized FIO Bridge operated by a subset of Block Producers.
