# Expiry Explorer: every ENS name in its lifecycle, in one place

A unified view of the three-phase ENS expiry lifecycle — grace period, temporary premium, and reopening — with live pricing, decay progress, and registration in two clicks.

Every `.eth` name eventually comes back to the market. The Expiry Explorer is the single page where you can watch that happen in real time across the entire ENS registry.

## Three phases, three tabs

- **Grace Period.** Names whose registration has expired but where the original owner can still renew at the standard annual fee. 90-day countdown per name.
- **Temp Premium.** Names that have moved past grace and entered the 21-day Dutch auction. We show the current decayed price, time remaining, and decay progress bar.
- **Reopened.** Names that finished temp premium and are now first-come, first-served at the standard annual fee.

## What you can do from each row

- Star to favourite (persists across sessions, exposed as a count in the header)
- Open the full domain detail page
- Register directly in two transactions (commit + reveal)
- Set an alert that pings you when the name's state changes

## Filters that actually help

Filter by character length (3, 4, 5+), composition (letters only, numbers only, emoji, mixed), and curated collections (999 Club, 10k Club, dictionary words, palindromes). The collection filter is the highest-signal one — most experienced collectors live in two or three categories.

We have also built per-category landing pages at `/find/expiry/<segment>` — see [4-letter](/find/expiry/4-letter), [999-club](/find/expiry/999-club), or a month-specific page like [2026-06](/find/expiry/2026-06).

## Try it

Open [/find/expiry](/find/expiry). The page auto-refreshes every minute so prices stay accurate.
