Enscribe now has a YouTube channel with short tutorials, walkthroughs, and community call recordings that show how smart contract naming works in practice.

When we published our first Contract Naming Season update in January, the focus was on momentum and what had been achieved. Teams were beginning to name contracts, tooling had improved, and the first public protocol announcements had started to appear.
At that stage, the awards themselves were still ahead of us.
We have now reached a more concrete milestone. The first batch of ENS Contract Naming Season awards has been distributed, and with two months still to go before the program closes at the end of April, we now have a clearer picture of how participation is taking shape.
After a good kickoff last month, we’re back for our second monthly community sync. We’ve been busy incorporating feedback from the first call, and we have significant updates to share across the Enscribe ecosystem.
We’ve spent the last few months focused entirely on the technical side of Enscribe building out the web app and tools for Foundry and Hardhat to make ENS integration for smart contracts less of a headache.
But we don't want to build in isolation. Smart contract identity is complex and the best way to build and improve tools for it is to actually talk to the people who are interacting with naming contracts every day.
When ENS Contract Naming Season launched, our goal was simple — to increase trust for users of smart contracts in Ethereum through contract naming with ENS. A few months in, we’re starting to see that shift take shape.
The ENS DAO has officially passed a proposal launching ENS Contract Naming Season — a new community initiative to bring names, identity, and trust to smart contracts across Ethereum.
Contract Naming Season is a collaborative effort between the ENS DAO, Enscribe and others to help projects name their smart contracts using ENS names, turning unreadable hexadecimal addresses into human-readable, trustworthy names.
We believe naming a smart contract is vital for improving the UX and security for users of Ethereum apps.
At Enscribe, to reward our early users, we’ve created our first POAP drop! Now, every time you successfully name a smart contract using Enscribe, you can mint an exclusive, limited-edition POAP to show you’re one of the early namers of smart contracts.
