In Web 2.0

which is the .com era

you could buy a domain

and leave it in the drawer ✋ speculating in the true sense of the word like someone who bought a plot of land and locked it up waiting for the price to rise and then sell… without building or operating or providing any value

📉 and this is what made the internet full of:

– Reserved names

– Fake projects

– Companies on paper only

🚀 Web 3.0 has come… the story has changed

In Web 3.0

and specifically with .pi domains

it's a completely different matter 👇

❌ No speculation

❌ No just reserving names

❌ No selling for free

✅ The domain must be active

✅ Connected to a real application

✅ Provides actual benefit to the ecosystem

In short:

the domain is not empty land

the domain = an active project

🔹 How to receive a .pi domain? (step by step)

Winning the auction is not the end of this story, it's the beginning.

🗝️ Linking the domain to an application (mandatory step)

❗ No receiving without an application

The domain must be linked to the Pi App

Registered on your account

🔹 Application conditions for acceptance

The application must be:

✅ Officially registered

– Completed App Setup Checklist

– Have a name, description, and clear idea

✅ Have real users

– At least 5 users

– Registered on Pi

– KYC Approved

✅ Have real usage

That means:

Store – Platform – Service – Tool

❌ Not an empty page

❌ Not a fake application

❌ Not a name without benefit

✔️ You have time to develop an application

❌ But final acceptance will not happen

except after linking it to a compliant application

👑 Whoever builds = will own

👑 Whoever works = will complete
