Designed for both individual users and projects/organizations, the Web3 Passport symbolically represents the identity of Web3 and functions as a hub for content display. The associated domain, like "xxx.web3.com," provides unique value through visibility and circulation within the Web3 community. ^[5]

Web3 Passport allows holders to create and edit profiles, showcasing various on-chain and off-chain information. This includes personal or organizational pages, wallet addresses, collections of NFTs, and creative works. ^[5]

Web3ite Passport is an ERC-721 NFT launched on the Ethereum mainnet. Web3.com is registered with the Ethereum Name Service (ENS) protocol, allowing holders to use their web3.com domains as on-chain identities in ENS-enabled Apps. ^[5]

Web3 Passport holders can purchase domains with names that adhere to specific criteria: ^[6]

• Length: The name can be between 3 and 20 characters.
• Character Set: Name characters can include uppercase and lowercase English letters, numbers 0-9, and hyphen "-".
• Case Insensitivity: Letter case is ignored when determining duplicate names. For example, the names "Abc", "ABC", "abc", and "ABc" will be considered as duplicate names and cannot be purchased.
• Hyphen Usage: The hyphen "-" cannot be the first or last character, and it cannot be used consecutively within the name.
• Reserved Names: Some names are in a reserved status, primarily those associated with well-known project names, and are not available for purchase.
• Release Policy: In the early stage, the platform follows a policy of periodically releasing Web3ite Pass domain names, indicating that new domain names become available over time.

Following purchase, the owner retains perpetual use of the domain name. However, after one year from the last purchase or renewal, the owner must manually renew the domain within a 30-day grace period, at no cost. Failure to do so will result in the domain name being released for others to purchase. ^[6]

Words that are part of this category include: token, blockchain, wallet, coins, mining, stake, layer2, gas, dapp, exchange, dao, chains, pay, net, time, sport, invest, bank, fund, money, flights, fashion, culture, retail, auto, game, internet, catering, media, music, finance, law, weather, market, news, food, coffee, restaurants. maps, hotel, subway, fitness, pizza, cat, and dog. ^[8]
