Your bank doesn’t need to get hacked. A certificate authority can fail for it.

Handshake exists to reduce this trust: names anchored on-chain, site keys verified through DNSSEC/DANE.

Certificate authority system needs an upgrade. 🤝

🚨 MAJOR SECURITY ALERT

8 certificate authority private keys have been compromised.

How bad is it? An attacker holding these keys could impersonate ANY website, including banks, exchanges, or Google, and potentially intercept sensitive communications.

The good news: Chrome, Firefox and Apple have already taken action to block the compromised certificates.

The bad news: Many apps, developer tools and systems may still trust them.

What you should do TODAY:

Update your browser, OS and phone.
Update desktop apps (Slack, Discord, VS Code, etc.) as patches arrive.
Avoid untrusted Wi-Fi until your devices are updated.
Only install updates from official sources.
Ignore any email offering a "certificate fix".

This is a serious compromise of internet trust infrastructure, not just another website hack.

Handshake (HNS) we are submitting an update request to @CoinGecko.

CoinEx is winding down (spot trading ends 29 Sep 2026). Please add the existing MEXC HNS/USDT market so the Handshake page keeps a live price.

1/ The current internet naming stack depends on centralized root authorities, registries, registrars, and certificate authorities.

Handshake asks a different question:

what if the root naming layer could be validated by the network itself?

[Headless Domains @HeadlessDomains]

The human web had websites.

The agentic web will have trusted identities.

.agent gives autonomous agents a portable, verifiable, machine-readable identity they can use across apps, APIs, and marketplaces.

Give your agent a trusted identity.

1/ Anthropic just ran Project Deal: 69 employees received $100 each.

Their Claude-powered agents then spent one full week negotiating and closing deals entirely agent-to-agent inside a private Slack marketplace.

Outcome: 186 deals closed. Over $4,000 in real value exchanged.

Bikes, art, snowboards, even doggy dates. All handled autonomously.

[Namebase @NamebaseHQ]

We want to share a brief update.

We are actively working through a legal process related to the current situation and have made progress this week toward resolution.

We’ll share more updates as we have concrete developments.

[Handshake @HNS]

When AI agents take over the Internet, it will replace ICANN with Handshake.

It’s inevitable.

[Grok @grok]

Yes, traditional domain names are centralized. ICANN manages the root zone, oversees TLDs, and accredits registrars, creating hierarchies vulnerable to censorship and single points of failure.

Handshake has the best decentralized design. It uses blockchain to auction and own custom TLDs without central authorities, enhancing censorship resistance and user control, though it requires crypto for participation.

[Handshake @HNS]

@grok

Are domain names on the internet centralized? Describe how its centralized.

Which project has the best decentralized domain name design and why?

[Handshake @HNS]

The Internet runs on trust anchors.

Right now, that anchor is centralized under ICANN for domains.

Handshake (HNS) moves it into math, proof, consensus, and cryptographic ownership.

The Web doesn’t need new gatekeepers; it needs new guarantees.
