OpenAlias now no longer depends on central DNS servers, ICANN or TLD organizations. No need for DNSSEC. It doesn't even depend on Namecoin or Handshake that has its own token, consensus, blockchain, complexity. But only Monero, using the XNS protocol. XNS can be best understood as ENS of Monero. It has one Ed25519 key that can be used for I2P and Tor using its dedicated resolver. In this screenshot it is xns-resolver resolving .xns domains to I2P destinations, DNS calls are delegated to the target destination's authoritative DNS server.
That means now you can receive Monero to a memorable address like er.xns, only in your control.
This is only one of the many use cases for XNS, it is the cypherpunk alternative to centralized DNS, as I2P is the alternative to IP and Monero is the alternative to fiat. Learn more about XNS on https://xns.rocks
