Release notes: October 21, 2026
Fixes
Signing in with a smart wallet that hasn’t been used onchain yet now works. You can connect a wallet and sign in even if it has never made a transaction.
Enabling DNS now matches your DNS term to your name’s expiry by calendar date, including leap years. If the two dates already line up, you go straight to Review & Confirm with nothing extra to pay. If they don’t, you’re only charged for the days needed to align them.
Transferring a name no longer removes contact details that are shared with your other names. Only the DNS activation on the transferred name is removed, so your other names keep their contact details.
Renewals are now capped at 10 years. You can’t extend a name beyond the maximum registration period.
The checkout confirmation page no longer freezes after a successful payment.
Notices about a name expiring, expiring soon, being released, being renewed, or having a renewal cancelled now go to the registrant email on the name instead of your account email. This means they reach the name’s listed contact, as ICANN requires.
