ENS makes it easier to send assets by replacing long wallet addresses with simple, human-readable names like yourname.eth.
How It Works
When you add wallet or contract addresses to your ENS name, it acts as an alias. Instead of copying and pasting a hexadecimal address, anyone can send crypto or assets to your name instead. The ENS protocol resolves the name to that linked wallet address.
For example, sending to yourname.eth is functionally the same as sending to 0x7ec..., but far easier and less error-prone.
Simply type the ENS name into the 'send to' / 'recipient' field
You can set different addresses for over 200 blockchains, allowing ENS to work across the broader blockchain ecosystem.
