Summary

Handshake is a decentralized, permissionless naming protocol that enables every peer to validate and manage root DNS naming zones independently, serving as a robust alternative to traditional Certificate Authorities. This architecture ensures high availability by claiming keys only after the list is generated via a centralized server rather than relying on individual user accounts for each name entry. By avoiding hard-fork allocations during development, this implementation guarantees that once live, no additional keys can be removed from the system, ensuring long-term stability and immutability in public usage.
