Eth.loan Launches as Experimental Lending Tool for ENS Users

eth.loanCurious to see if you qualify for a loan? Can’t remember what crypto or DeFi lenders are out there? There’s a hack for that. Any owner of an Ethereum Name Service (ENS) name can simply type their name into a web browser and add .loan to the end of it. The result (for now) is a fully functioning native web page with options.

LIKE THIS: decashed.eth.loan

The trick to making it work is the domain name eth.loan, one of nearly two dozen domain names that also act as reverse ENS names. Eth.loan works similar to eth.photos in that the server can interpret subdomains as .eth names. From there, many things are possible (see eth.limo for example!).

Currently, the tool shows two options to every visitor. Try your-name-here.eth.loan in a browser and you’ll see both. One of them has an affiliate link attached to it. Check them out if you’d like. Right now the whole concept is more of a prototype.

If you are a DeFi lender or crypto lender that is interested in being listed on this tool, please email sean@debanked.com. Sean Murray is the creator of eth.loan just like eth.photos.

Web3 Comes to Web2 – Plug Your .eth Into Any Web Browser

eth.photosNow even your grandma can check out your NFT art and photos without having to know anything about crypto or web3. If your jpegs are on an ENS-linked ethereum address, then grandma or whoever it is can access them in a web browser with ease. Just type in yourname.eth.photos into a browser and it will display the respective address’s recent jpegs.

Here’s an example: the username 3531.eth can be plugged into a browser as such: 3531.eth.photos.

It’s currently in version 1.0, but it works. The more details one set up in their ENS profile, the more biographical info it will display at the top.

No data is actually hosted within the tool. Instead it pulls data from the public ethereum blockchain to create a visual for the user. Most people would never know they were looking at NFTs or anything blockchain-based unless they were told they were.

*Admittedly, I created the tool so I am biased, but nevertheless, hopefully it makes viewing your own jpegs easy.
