What is Handshake?

Handshake is a decentralized alternative to the traditional root zone managed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). It offers a number of benefits over the traditional root zone:

1. Decentralization: The handshake root zone is decentralized, meaning that it is not controlled by a single entity such as ICANN. This makes it more resistant to censorship and control by governments or other organizations.

2. Security: The handshake root zone uses blockchain technology to secure its records, which makes it more resistant to tampering and hacking.

3. Transparency: The handshake root zone is open and transparent, meaning that anyone can view its records and see how it is being managed. This can help to build trust in the system.

4. Inclusion: The handshake root zone is open to anyone who wants to register a domain, which means that it can be more inclusive than the traditional root zone, which has strict requirements for who can register a domain.

5. Lower costs: The handshake root zone may offer lower costs for registering and maintaining a domain, as it does not require the use of accredited registrars or other intermediaries.
