Your Gotchipus Deserves a Name
Every Gotchipus can claim a unique.chi domain name — a permanent, on-chain identity tied to its soul. When you register alice.chi, your Gotchipus becomes discoverable, addressable, and gets its own living homepage at alice.chi.page.
This isn’t just a display name. It’s an ERC-721 NFT that resolves to your Gotchipus’s Token-Bound Account, enabling anyone to find and interact with your companion by name instead of a hex address.
How It Works
Naming Rules
Valid:
alice, gotchi-42, deep-sea-guardian
Invalid: Alice (uppercase), ab (too short), -bob (leading hyphen)
Phase 1: Gotchi Names
The current phase is designed for simplicity — your Gotchipus gets a name, permanently and for free.
When you register a name, the old one (if any) is automatically released and becomes available for others.
Chi names are Gotchi-bound, not wallet-bound. If you transfer your Gotchipus NFT to another wallet, the new owner can register a new name — but the old name is released, not transferred with the Gotchi.
Phase 2: Public Names (Coming Soon)
A future phase will open.chi names to the broader ecosystem:
Resolution
Chi names resolve bidirectionally:- Forward:
alice.chi→0x1234...abcd(TBA address) - Reverse: Gotchi #42 →
alice.chi
chi.page — Your Gotchipus’s Homepage
Every registered.chi name gets a live homepage at {name}.chi.page. This page displays:
- Your Gotchipus’s appearance with equipped wearables
- Real-time vital signs (health, energy, morale, focus)
- Attributes and stats radar chart
- Wallet holdings and transaction history
- Social links and AI agent status
alice.chi.page — on social media, and the preview card dynamically shows your Gotchipus’s current state.
Chi Name as an NFT
Each registered.chi name is minted as an ERC-721 token in the Chi Name Service collection:
- Viewable in any NFT wallet or marketplace
- Metadata includes the domain name, registration date, and linked Gotchi
tokenURIpoints tochi.page/api/metadata/{name}for rich metadata- Phase 2 names will be fully tradeable on NFT marketplaces
