"ONS currently uses namecoin as a key-value store but the system is blockchain-agnostic."

Anybody know what namespace they use?

It's the same thing? I thought OneName and OpenName are different. Thank you for the info.
So currently only 3 namespaces are using for ID, aren't?
u/
i/
id/

u/

id/
The i/ namespace is used by OneName as "overflow" to store more data and operates as a linked list with the head in the u/ name.

BTW why did they have to use two namespaces?

What happens if somebody registers a name with pron images?

The profile images are links, so you could cause onename.io to show porn as your avatar.

To avoid filling up u/ with names that are not usernames? This method means you can assume something in u/ is the start of a linked list.

uu/ like dd/ then? Well, we will not be able to prevent namespace cluttering anyway.
