The Ethereum Name Service (ENS), a prominent blockchain-based domain name provider, has launched a new ‘ENS Points’ System today. This system gives points to each.eth domain name using a proprietary algorithm that takes into consideration registration information and account activity.
According to the statement, each.eth domain name has been awarded a point value using a proprietary mechanism. This algorithm considers registration data, account activity, and “much more,” albeit the specifics are unknown.
ENS encourages users to participate by inputting their.eth name to view their accrued points.
This point system adds a degree of gamification to ENS domain ownership. The potential benefits and purpose of these points have not yet been properly described by ENS. However, it could point to a future loyalty program with benefits for high-scoring domains, or a means to prioritize specific domains in search results.
