Brave supports ENS(.eth) domain names resolution. This support includes resolving wallet addresses in wallet panel and resolving ipfs links in omnibox. ENS is deployed on the Ethereum main network.
Brave also supports transparent reading of ENS records from offchain storages. Offchain storage is setup by domain owner by providing a custom resolver smart contract to ENS.
ENS offchain lookup is controlled by settings in brave://settings/extensions. Possible values are:
-
Ask. This is the default option which Brave would ask whether to enable ENS offchain lookup when visiting such .eth domains. -
Disabled. Completely disable ENS offchain lookup. Records for such ENS domains will not be resolved by Brave. -
Enabled. Enables ENS offchain lookup. Brave will fetch data from offchain gateways specified by domain owners in their resolver smart contracts.
