Mint your domain name on ENS

This guide is for bringing an ENS name you already own on ENS  (for example your_name.eth) onto Lime. You keep full custody of the name; Lime only becomes the resolver after you set it explicitly onchain.

Lime resolver contracts

Set one of these addresses as your name’s resolver in the ENS Manager  (or testnet equivalent), depending on the network:

You stay in control

• The ENS name remains yours. Lime does not control your registration, expiry, or transfer rights. Changing the resolver is a normal ENS operation you approve from your wallet.
• Renewals still apply where ENS requires them. For typical .eth names from the ETH Registrar , you must renew  before registration lapses—same as today.
• DNS names imported into ENS (via DNSSEC ) generally do not use the same renewal model as .eth NFT registrations; we recommend this path when it fits your use case because ongoing registration friction is often lower.

Switching back to a standard resolver

At any time, you can stop using Lime for resolution by setting your name’s resolver to the standard (public) ENS resolver or any other resolver you trust—same mechanism as connecting to Lime: an onchain update in the ENS Manager  (typically under More, or wherever the app surfaces resolver changes). Your registration, expiry, and owner stay the same; only which contract answers lookups for your records changes. See Public Resolver  in the ENS docs.

1. Set Lime as your resolver (ENS App → More)

To connect your name to Lime, you must set Lime’s resolver contract as the resolver for that ENS name.

Replace your_name.eth with your actual name in these links:

• Sepolia: ENS Manager (Sepolia) — your name, More tab 
• Mainnet: ENS Manager — your name, More tab 

Official references: ENS documentation , ens.domains .

2. Register the name in Lime

After the resolver points to Lime, import the name in your Lime account:

• Add ENS name: lime.dev/account/add 

Connect your wallet, enter the ENS name, and complete the flow. If the resolver is not Lime’s, the UI will show a clear error—fix the resolver in the ENS App (step 1), then try again.

3. What you get after linking

Once the name is registered with Lime, resolution goes through Lime’s hybrid resolver:

• Create unlimited subnames for free, including without gas for the usual offchain paths.
• Store most records offchain at no cost; put security‑critical or must‑be‑onchain data onchain when you need strong guarantees.

For how hybrid resolution compares to fully onchain records, see Hybrid vs Onchain.
