+1 Eduardo. Out of scope, but ALAC should keep an eye on it in case there are any issues that affect end-users. Most likely any potential conflicts and collisions will either never materialize or be out of sight of Internet users. This IMO should be the extent of our involvement in this issue. To go beyond this is to amplify the fear-mongering that exploiters seek in order to pressure ICANN to get their way. - Evan On Thu, Aug 25, 2022 at 6:21 PM Eduardo Diaz via CPWG <cpwg@icann.org> wrote:

So, for ICANN, the corporation, blockchain is out of scope. However, ICANN community members should know what's happening outside the ICANN bubble regarding blockchain and its probable (or unprobable) intersections with the DNS. -ed **: https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/definition/ICANN-Internet-Corporation-for-...

The core of the question seems to be this: Is ICANN's remit just to administer the DNS? Or is the DNS merely the tool that ICANN uses, for the moment, to administer domain names -- domain names being our remit?
If the former, then Blockchain Domains are out of ICANN's scope. If the latter, they are in scope. From this all else follows.
