Another information technology problem, in the world order. This time I was unable to view any .crypto domains with Brave web browser. However, Brave Publishers claim that their web browser has native support for viewing .crypto domains.
I could not view any .crypto domains with version 1.32.106 and earlier Brave web browser versions. I performed some Internet searching and found a solution. You want to click on the three line menu icon at the top right.
Now you want to choose "Settings". On the left hand side "Settings" menu choose "Privacy and security". On your right hand side, scroll down and choose "Security".
Now select "Choose secure DNS". You will want to turn the toggle switch so that this feature is turned on. This will allow you to configure a secure domain name system custom provider.
Change the radio button selection from "With your current service provider" to "With Custom". Now in the box labeled "Enter custom provider" type in or copy and paste:
https://resolver.unstoppable.io/dns-query
You are finished configuring a custom secure domain name system resolver. Brave web browser settings does not have a save feature. Your settings are automatically saved.
Also, you could choose the first choice "With your current service provider". However, your current Internet service provider may not support crypto domains. Also, you may not be able to view .crypto domains with your current service provider at all times.
You can now close the Settings tab. You can visit any .crypto domain that has a live website. Also, you can click on "Open using IPFS" button in the top uniform resource locator address bar.
You can type in .crypto domain addresses like this example below. Also, you can try to view them as hyper text transfer protocol, hyper text transfer protocol secure, and inter planetary file system websites. Inter planetary file system domains may resolve to inter planetary name system instead.
ipfs://vault7.crypto
Http stands for hyper text transfer protocol. Https stands for hyper text transfer protocol secure. Ipfs stands for inter planetary file system.
Inter planetary file system is a block chain file system. Ipns stands for inter planetary name system, which also uses block chain technology.
Brave Web Browser View Crypto Domains Configuration - Video Transcript
00:11
brave web browser they claim that they
00:13
have native support for viewing dot
00:15
crypto domains however i couldn't
00:20
get it to work in this web browser now
00:22
i'm using mx linux which is a debian
00:26
derivation distribution perhaps that's
00:29
the problem and also it's an older
00:31
version
00:33
on linux anyways i don't want to digress
00:35
too much
00:37
it just does not work if you see it on
00:38
screen this this is a real crypto domain
00:42
that actually works
00:43
if you refresh it it gets a dns error
00:47
well i performed some searching and i
00:50
found a solution for now they claim that
00:52
they have built-in native support for
00:55
you know ipfs which is the file system
00:59
that crypto domains use and
01:02
for
01:03
even typing in http
01:05
and then the
01:08
crypto domain name
01:10
it doesn't work
01:12
so you click the three drop down arrows
01:14
in brave which is the menu then you
01:16
click on settings now once you enter
01:19
settings
01:20
then you want to click on privacy and
01:22
security on the left hand side
01:25
then scroll down to security click on
01:28
security
01:29
and then
01:30
choose
01:32
use secure dns you have to turn it on
01:35
and then you'll be able to choose custom
01:38
now you want to select custom so to
01:40
change your radio button from
01:43
with your current
01:44
service provider to custom
01:47
um i think this is the i could be wrong
01:49
but i think
01:50
well i don't know for a fact this might
01:52
be the only public
01:54
crypto
01:56
you know domain name service available
01:58
in the future if
02:00
these become popular enough maybe your
02:02
[Music]
02:04
current
02:05
domain name provider
02:08
domain name service provider may provide
02:11
service for crypto domains i don't know
02:14
so you choose make sure with custom is
02:16
selected you notice there's other
02:18
options but you don't want to with
02:20
the other ones not at least not for now
02:23
and then now this is what you want to
02:25
enter in i'm going to just copy and
02:27
paste it
02:28
it is https so that s is for secure
02:32
hyper text transfer protocol secure
02:36
colon four slash forceless resolver
02:39
dot unstoppable dot io
02:42
slash dns dash query so
02:46
now this is for secure dns
02:49
your your regular website should work
02:53
google i don't know google microsoft i
02:56
don't know why you'd be browsing
02:57
microcrap microship microslop windows
03:00
official website but you know
03:03
all of that should work facebook if it
03:05
doesn't work
03:06
it works in my browser
03:08
you know i'm saying if for whatever
03:10
reason it does not work just disable
03:12
your security yes you might want to
03:14
leave the settings alone so just in case
03:16
you toggle it back on it could be months
03:18
from now you decide you want to browse
03:21
crypto domains and you forgot the
03:24
correct settings
03:25
so
03:26
instead of using
03:28
your internet service provider or google
03:31
or open what is it there's open dns
03:35
it's going to use
03:37
resolver.unstoppable.io
03:40
for dns queries for so that you can view
03:43
that crypto
03:44
now so i'm going to
03:46
it's enabled i should be able to just
03:49
refresh
03:50
and it it'll load it takes a little bit
03:53
of time and it should load it so it and
03:56
this website's kind of i don't well i
03:57
don't know if it's slow slow it could be
03:59
ipfs
04:00
which is not hypertext transfer protocol
04:03
it's a different type of a file sharing
04:08
it uses actually blockchain i don't know
04:11
if every website isn't slow i have
04:13
decent internet where i'm located at
04:15
it's not you know
04:18
fiber
04:19
you know what i'm saying
04:21
it'll load
04:22
now if you notice up in there i think
04:24
you might be able to see this i think
04:25
the screen capturing program i'm using
04:28
should
04:30
be viewable
04:32
open using ipfs
04:37
well we'll click on that because
04:40
oh
04:41
i don't want to waste any more time
04:43
so that's going to try to load it in
04:45
ipfs i think this loaded now yeah there
04:48
it is okay so vault 74 that's a real
04:52
dot crypto it uses the blockchain it
04:55
uses ipfs i think i could be wrong but i
04:58
think ipfs is like
05:00
the only or one of the few blockchain
05:04
website type file systems you can
05:07
actually
05:10
share
05:12
a website you can
05:13
you know maintain a website using ipfs
05:17
instead of http
05:19
you know what i'm saying hypertext
05:21
transfer protocol
05:26
i am not affiliated with this website i
05:28
don't even know if they have an
05:29
affiliate program i'm not endorsing them
05:32
i just
05:33
i'll be honest i couldn't find
05:36
that many websites that are
05:38
that are dot crypto i couldn't
05:41
yeah i've i've visited a few
05:44
but i didn't bookmark that the articles
05:47
and i i had a difficulty
05:50
time trying to even find any of that
05:52
crypto websites
05:54
i finally found
05:56
anyway some website that mentioned this
05:57
one
05:59
there were like 10 and none of them
06:00
worked
06:02
and this one worked i was like oh
06:04
finally so fall74.crypto
06:08
and now i don't think
06:10
i
06:12
if you notice
06:15
ipns
06:18
so you can
06:20
use ipns and i think you can also type
06:23
in ipfs we can test that and then i'm
06:26
almost
06:27
complete with this video i will be
06:30
writing a full length blog post
06:33
no
06:34
ipfs
06:37
i'm not sure it doesn't open that but
06:39
ipns i'm not an expert i'll be honest i
06:42
know the basics i i do know that
06:45
ipfs
06:46
is a file system that uses blockchain
06:49
and it allows you to
06:51
host websites now
06:54
here's a quick example
06:56
you have your wallet
06:58
well goddammit aaron what's in your
07:00
wallet aaron it's empty aaron wow aaron
07:03
you're not rich no wonder why you don't
07:06
get any dates aaron because those gold
07:08
digging feminist feminazi excuse me arn
07:14
that's about how terrible it is in
07:15
america with these
07:17
females man
07:19
anyways
07:20
they don't like fools gold
07:22
you know what i'm saying all right
07:25
you have a blockchain wallet whether
07:28
it's a bitcoin or ethereum which is
07:31
basically does i think ethereum does
07:34
have a separate token whatever
07:36
it has to be a wallet okay it has to be
07:39
a bit a blockchain wallet
07:42
whether it's
07:45
bitcoin or what are some other wallets
07:49
i have whatever the wallet is the
07:52
cryptocurrency wallet
07:54
it's just an abstract address well it's
07:57
a very lengthy number and letters and
08:00
all that crap
08:02
well
08:03
that to me is terrible marketing if you
08:05
give somebody your real
08:08
wallet
08:09
it's lengthy
08:10
they're probably never going to remember
08:12
it they're probably never going to want
08:13
to remember it even if you included it
08:15
in email
08:17
or a text or a chat or you yell it at
08:21
them or you
08:23
advertise it on some billboard they're
08:25
not going to probably care
08:28
they'll probably like you know leave
08:31
your website or they'll be like huh i
08:33
don't have to type that in all the time
08:35
well what you do is you create a crypto
08:39
you you from unstoppable i don't know if
08:41
there are any other
08:43
crypto domain providers i just i'm not
08:45
an expert
08:47
you would obtain a crypto domain and
08:49
then what you do
08:51
is
08:52
you forward
08:54
the
08:55
address
08:56
so that they only have to type in this
08:59
is just an example obviously it's not
09:01
going to work but you would type in well
09:03
i'll just say ain't computers.crypto
09:06
that's not a real live website
09:08
in it computers.crypto would actually
09:11
forward so that you could pay me in
09:14
bitcoin or whatever so that's where
09:16
there there's an advantage for now
09:18
and there are other uses you can build
09:21
websites this is a real website that is
09:24
not using hypertext transfer protocol
09:27
it's not a static html website coded
09:29
only in html and it's obviously not a
09:32
wordpress i don't know why it took a
09:34
while to load i just don't know enough
09:37
you know it could be the file system it
09:39
could be who knows but it works
09:42
all right
09:44
i will include a link in the description
09:47
of this youtube video that will take you
09:48
to my website and at computers.crypto i
09:50
mean
09:52
yeah i dare you to you know surf the
09:54
anet computers.crypto there's nothing
09:57
there
09:57
i have thought about
09:59
starting a crypto website i'm just not
10:02
sure yet if it's even worth the time but
10:04
maybe oh another caveat
10:06
i don't know if it's true
10:08
allegedly they claim one break another
10:11
breaking point is that supposedly
10:13
governments cannot censor you if you
10:16
have a dot crypto domain
10:19
supposedly they cannot they cannot
10:22
submit a cease and desist although i
10:24
think i think unstoppable domains are
10:26
the only
10:28
domain name service provider that will
10:30
sell dot crypto so i'm not sure how that
10:33
works
10:34
governments are crooked
10:37
basically governments are like terrorist
10:39
organizations
10:41
they don't give a
10:43
i think they a government could
10:46
unstoppable domains
10:48
you know how the fbi is in america the
10:50
federal bureau of insurgency i mean
10:53
i mean seriously
10:55
i don't know but
10:57
supposedly technically they cannot
11:00
censor you they
11:02
i don't know if that's true i don't know
11:03
if that's going to be true in the future
11:05
that's one selling point
11:09
my blog post i will try to
11:11
include detailed instructions now there
11:13
are some other web browsers that
11:17
i
11:18
did i try i think i tested mozilla and i
11:20
could not
11:22
now brave claims that they have native
11:24
support but no i i showed you i proved
11:27
to you at the beginning of this video
11:28
that no
11:29
i may or may not record other videos
11:32
helping people
11:35
configure their web browsers so that
11:36
they can properly and successfully view
11:39
these dot crypto
11:41
blockchain ipfs domains i'm i might not
11:45
but my blog post will have full
11:46
instructions and i will include all the
11:49
details especially the resolver that's
11:51
the most important
11:52
piece you know it's all important
11:55
adios
