According to Foresight News , ENS founder nick.eth announced that ENSv2 will be deployed directly on the Ethereum mainnet, and development of its proprietary Layer 2 network, Namechain, will cease. This decision stems from the faster-than-expected scaling of Ethereum's L1 network. Following the Fusaka upgrade in 2025, which will increase the gas cap to 60 million, ENS registration gas costs have decreased by 99% in the past year, with the average registration fee now below $0.05. nick.eth stated that despite ceasing Namechain development, the ENSv2 roadmap remains unchanged, and users will still experience features such as one-step registration, support for cross-chain stablecoin payments, and a new registry design. The ENS team believes that remaining on L1 eliminates the additional trust assumptions of L2 and leverages Ethereum's strongest infrastructure. Currently, the new ENS App and ENS Explorer are in public alpha testing.
ENS has halted L2 Namechain development; v2 will be deployed directly on the Ethereum mainnet.
