dotname

Write a spec. Generate contracts. Deploy on Base. Register via ENS.

Built on dotdog. Built for ETHGlobal New York 2026.

The Pitch

Smart contracts are unforgiving. One bug costs millions. Most teams ship code at 4am with no spec.

dotname makes spec-first onchain identity trivial. Write a .dog spec describing your identity protocol. Run dotname demo. Get deployable Solidity contracts targeting Base Sepolia with ENS subdomain resolution.

.dog spec  →  dotname demo  →  4 contracts generated  →  deploy to Base  →  alice.base.eth resolves to profile

Sponsors

• 🟦 Base — all contracts deploy on Base Sepolia
• 🔷 ENS — subdomain registration + resolution

  [1/4] Spec
  .dog spec defines protocol: 5 entities, 4 relationships
  Profile, Registry, Resolver, Registrar, Registration

  [2/4] Generate
  .dag → Solidity contracts
  4 contracts generated: Profile.sol, Registry.sol, Resolver.sol, Registrar.sol

  [3/4] Deploy
  Deploy to Base Sepolia
  Low fees. Fast finality. Ethereum security.

  [4/4] Register
  Register name.base.eth via ENS
  alice.base.eth → Profile contract → bio, avatar, links
  Fully onchain. Fully yours.

Generated Contracts

Each contract includes:

• NatSpec documentation from .dog spec
• State machine with lifecycle transitions
• Access control (Ownable)
• Relationship references to other protocol contracts
