We are planning to support other payments for .simplex names when they launch, including in-app payments. Right now you can use any swap service, including Unstoppable swap - they even have a SimpleX Chat bot for that. So, create an account in metamask, swap say $1 worth of ETH, that should cover the fee to register 2-3 test names.

Informative. Thank you. I appreciate your push toward a for-profit ecosystem alongside an honest non-profit protocol, with @ODELL on board. I have no major concerns that you can succeed, if luck is on your side. Furthermore, your use case for shitcoins makes me rethink my own Bitcoin maxi viewpoint a little. Thank you for that itch.

For 1 BTC doesn't bring anymore privacy than Eth does, and 2 since SNS is an EVM smart contract you would have to trust a third party to register and hold your SNS domain, which would defeat the original purpose. Won't maxis ever learn anything?
