Automated delegation
What is automated delegation and how do smart contracts manage domain control?
- glossary
Automated delegation refers to using smart contracts to automatically manage domain control and delegation based on predefined rules or conditions. Traditional domain delegation requires manual intervention to change nameservers or DNS settings. With tokenized domains, smart contracts can automatically delegate control based on factors like payment status, time-based conditions, or governance decisions. For example, a leased domain could automatically revert control to the owner if lease payments stop, or a DAO-owned domain could automatically update its configuration based on community votes. This automation reduces manual overhead, eliminates human error, and enables sophisticated domain management strategies that execute reliably without intermediaries.
