Question 1

What is ENS.Tools?

Accepted Answer

ENS.Tools is a free web application for managing Ethereum Name Service (ENS) domains. It allows you to track expiry dates, bulk renew multiple domains at once, explore expiring names available for registration, manage ENS records, and view public ENS profiles. The platform connects directly to ENS smart contracts with no middleman.

Question 2

How do I renew multiple ENS domains at once?

Accepted Answer

With ENS.Tools, you can select multiple domains from your portfolio and renew them all in a single transaction. Simply connect your wallet, select the domains you want to renew, choose the renewal period (1-5 years), and confirm the transaction. This saves significant gas fees compared to renewing domains individually.

Question 3

What is the ENS grace period?

Accepted Answer

When an ENS domain expires, it enters a 90-day grace period. During this time, only the original owner can renew the domain. After the grace period ends, the domain enters a 21-day Dutch auction (temporary premium) where the price starts at $100,000 and decreases to the base registration price. ENS.Tools helps you track domains in grace period and find expiring names to register.

Question 4

How do I find expiring ENS domains to register?

Accepted Answer

Use the Expiry Explorer tool on ENS.Tools to browse thousands of ENS domains currently in grace period or temporary premium. You can filter by name length, character type, and price. The tool shows real-time pricing for domains in the Dutch auction phase.

Question 5

What is the minimum length for an ENS domain?

Accepted Answer

The minimum length for an ENS .eth domain is 3 characters. Single and two-character .eth domains do not exist. 3-character domains (like abc.eth or 123.eth) are considered premium and have higher registration costs.

Question 6

How much does it cost to register an ENS domain?

Accepted Answer

ENS domain registration costs vary by name length. 5+ character names cost $5/year, 4-character names cost $160/year, and 3-character names cost $640/year. These prices are in addition to Ethereum gas fees for the transaction.

Question 7

Can I view someone's ENS profile without connecting a wallet?

Accepted Answer

Yes! ENS.Tools provides public profile pages for any ENS name. Visit ens.tools/[name].eth to view their avatar, bio, social links, owned domains, and portfolio analytics. No wallet connection required.

Question 8

Is ENS.Tools free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, ENS.Tools is completely free to use. You only pay Ethereum gas fees when making on-chain transactions like renewals or record updates. There are no platform fees, subscriptions, or hidden costs.
