In a digital world, sovereignty is ownership. NameShares let multiple actors collaborate on a single domain’s future — sharing rights, usage, governance, and innovation.
Municipalities, cultural hubs, and citizens can co-develop public services and civic spaces.
New ventures can lease or co-own specific namespaces to build Web3-native apps and services.
Institutions can anchor their legacy and culture onchain — securing narratives for future generations.
NameShares open up new forms of collaboration and ownership. Here’s how domains can evolve into living digital ecosystems:
Cities, regions, and communities jointly own sections of a TLD, managing them as shared assets.
Institutions can control namespaces (e.g., art.qld, innovation.brisbane) while staying connected to the larger digital identity.
Community-driven organizations manage subdomains through smart contracts, ensuring transparency and participation.
Flexible access models allow innovators to use namespaces dynamically, creating vibrant ecosystems without selling the core asset.
Everything you need to know about how NameShares work — and why they matter for Queensland’s future.
A NameShare is a shared digital right to use, manage, or build upon a specific namespace within a top-level domain.
No. Ownership remains anchored. NameShares offer usage rights and co-governance, not asset transfer.
Governments, startups, civic groups, artists, innovators — anyone building for Queensland’s digital ecosystem.
Yes — all NameShares are managed via onchain smart contracts, ensuring transparency and protection.
