Frequently Asked Questions about bns

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I register a .btc domain name using the Bitcoin Name System?▼

To register a .btc domain name via BNS, you use write operations like claim-fast, preorder, and register. An unlocked wallet is required to execute these transactions and validate name availability.

Can I check .btc domain availability and pricing without connecting a wallet?▼

You can check .btc domain availability and pricing without a wallet. BNS read operations include check-availability, get-price, lookup, and reverse-lookup, which return deterministic JSON outputs for smooth automation.

How do I resolve a .btc domain to its owner address via CLI?▼

You can resolve a .btc domain to its owner address by running a CLI lookup operation. The BNS skill processes the request and returns deterministic JSON outputs containing the resolved address information.

What is the difference between claim-fast and register when managing BNS domains?▼

BNS write operations include claim-fast, preorder, and register for domain management. All three flows require an unlocked wallet to execute on-chain interactions and validate name availability during the domain registration process.

How do I list all .btc domains owned by a specific user?▼

You can list all .btc domains owned by a specific user with the list-user-domains read operation. This BNS CLI command returns deterministic JSON outputs and does not require a wallet to be connected.

Do I need a wallet unlocked to perform a reverse-lookup on a .btc name?▼

A wallet is not required for a reverse-lookup on a .btc name. BNS read operations, including reverse-lookup, get-info, and lookup, can be executed without an unlocked wallet to retrieve domain information.
