Launched on November 29, 2015 by Alexandre Naverniouk, Ether ID was an early attempt at a name registration system for Ethereum. A total of 32,591 domains were registered using the original V1 contract during the 2015-16 time period. This wrapper contract enables the current owners of these domains to display and trade them as collectibles.

NOTE THAT OWNERSHIP HAS AN EXPIRATION BLOCK AND MUST BE RENEWED PERIODICALLY.
