Cluster Name

A cluster is a bundle of addresses where each address has its own unique name. For example, my cluster might be foobar/ and I'd have three wallets each named foobar/cold, foobar/memecoins, and foobar/gaming, respectively. The part before the / slash is called the cluster name, the part after the / slash is called the wallet name.

A cluster name can be owned by a single individual - called a personal cluster name. Or a cluster name can be owned by a community such as an a blockchain, an NFT community, or gaming ecosystem - called a community cluster name.

Personal Cluster Examples:

• foobar/

• rye/

• vitalik/

Community Cluster Examples:

• treasure/

• pudgy/

• layerzero/

Personal clusters and community clusters act the same aesthetically and display across integrations. They're both bundles of addresses with wallet names. The difference is that community clusters have more advanced management tooling to manage thousands of community wallet names at the same time.

Requirements

• Uniqueness: Unlike .eth and .sol fragmentation, names are globally unique across all chain ecosystems. If you try to register a name that already exists, it will fail.

• Length: Names are stored as a bytes32 string. So the max length is 32 characters. As we role out unicode support such as emoji's, the max length will vary

• Allowed Characters: Supported characters include a-z, 0-9, underscores (_), and dashes (-)

• Case Sensitivity: Cluster names are case insensitive. So Foobar/ and foobar/ will be treated the same.
