Terminology (user-facing labels now match the product/registry distinction):
- BCDN = Bitcoin Cash Domain Names (the product — what you view)
- BCNR = Bitcoin Cash Name Registry (the on-chain system that backs it)
Chrome badge, popover, Settings section and 'Open with…' prompt all show BCDN
for a resolved name. BCNR stays only where the registry itself is the subject.
'Open with…' prompt (collision.html):
- Larger window (640x520, was 480x340)
- Radio-select pattern with explicit Open / Cancel buttons (was auto-fire on click)
- Enter = Open, Esc = Cancel, keyboard-first
- Body copy per operator spec (no product-name-in-parens; blockchain-generic)
- Card titles kept short: 'BCNR / BCDN' + 'ICANN / IANA'
Address-bar chip:
- Says BCDN (not BCNR) for on-chain names; ICANN for web
- Dropped the '·.tld' suffix — TLD is already in the URL bar
- On collision candidates: shows BOTH chips (BCDN | ICANN) with active
highlighted; clicking the inactive one flips the tab (via collision-switch)
Settings section renamed Naming → Registries. Copy rewritten in the same
BCDN/BCNR frame; policy labels are now 'BCDN first' / 'ICANN first' / 'Ask
each time'.
Passive 'also on BCNR' bar copy updated to BCDN.
Verified: all preload/settings/main/chrome JS + HTML parse; no secrets in
staging.
Theseus soft-mode UX: 'Open with...' modal on collision, per-name/per-TLD
overrides, live per-tab switcher in the site-info popover, and a Naming section
in Settings for policy + reset. Backed by an on-chain root TLD certificate
(tlds.bch) that resolver-web.js discovers via fetchBcnrTlds()/isBcnrNativeTld().
Companion pieces:
- Argus/src/indexer/ELECTRUM-SOURCE-README.md — the featherweight VPS variant
(no BCHN node, no Fulcrum) now live as bns-indexer.service.
- Argus/DESIGN-root-tld-cert.md — clarified: NOT a governance workflow, just
ordinary key management (single wallet MVP -> 2-of-3 multisig). List gates
registration / surgical NRPT / soft-mode classifier — never resolution.
- ROADMAP-IDEAS.md — recorded SiaGit/GitHub.sia + user-friendly Sia UI ideas.
