Comparison

WalletOrigin vs ENS

ENS supports readable names, multi-chain address records and importing existing DNS names using DNSSEC. WalletOrigin focuses on reverse lookup from a wallet address to a domain, with DNS TXT and wallet-signature proofs across Ethereum/EVM, Solana, Bitcoin, Cosmos, Sui and Aptos.

The risk

A readable name is not a company identity

ENS DNSSEC imports can establish control of an existing DNS name. Similar-looking names and domains can still mislead users in either system. WalletOrigin also proves key control for each bound wallet, but neither system alone establishes legal company identity.

  • Names similar to a brand can be registered by third parties.
  • ENS supports multiple address records; WalletOrigin verifies signatures across six supported chains.
  • Always check the exact domain and address; a lookalike can be verified too.
A concrete example

The same wallet, two questions

A customer is about to pay a company wallet on Solana.

  1. 01

    A readable name tells them what the address is called.

  2. 02

    A WalletOrigin proof tells them the address is controlled by the same party that controls acme.com.

  3. 03

    Used together, naming and domain-wallet proofs offer context; neither guarantees a safe payment.

What the proof guarantees

Checkable by anyone

  • Identity anchored to DNS — the same registrar control that already backs your website and email.
  • Chain-agnostic: Ethereum and EVM chains, Solana, Bitcoin, Cosmos, Sui and Aptos in one place.
  • Many wallets per domain, no DNSSEC required, and no on-chain transaction to create a WalletOrigin proof.
  • Public address-to-domain lookup, directory, proof pages and an embeddable badge. ENS and WalletOrigin can be used together.
Side by side
ENS: readable names + address records
ENS: DNS name import through DNSSEC
WalletOrigin: address → company domain lookup
WalletOrigin: six signature-verification chains
WalletOrigin: many wallets per domain
WalletOrigin: DNS TXT, no DNSSEC required
WalletOrigin: public proofs, directory & badge

Add the missing half

Keep the names you already use and add a domain-backed proof of who controls the wallet.
