About the role
About D3
D3 is building the world's first purpose-built blockchain for DomainFi, bringing domain tokenization and DeFi primitives to a $360B+ real-world asset class. We are changing how existing and future domain names are owned, traded, and financed.
Our team is stacked with operators who spent the last three decades shaping the internet, from pioneering domain monetization to architecting core internet protocols to launching and running major TLDs like .xyz, .inc, .tv, and .link. We closed a $25M Series A led by Paradigm, one of the best investors in the industry. The round funds our mission to bring domains fully on-chain and open new financial rails for one of the internet's most valuable asset classes.
We are looking for driven builders to help us grow a trillion-dollar DomainFi economy. Join us!
