Handshake is a naming protocol thats backwards compatible with the existing DNS system. It does not replace the DNS protocol, but instead expands the root zone file where TLD ownership information is stored and the root servers with a distributed and decentralized blockchain-based system, which nobody controls and anybody can use. This allows the root zone to be uncensorable, permissionless, and free of gatekeepers like ICANN. Handshake is a naming protocol thats backwards compatible with the existing DNS system.

Every peer in the Handshake network cryptographically validates and manages the root zone, which also removes the need for the Certificate Authority system (CAs) entirely. Names are logged on the Handshake blockchain, which is essentially one big distributed zone file that anyone has the right to add an entry in.

# HNS Tokenomics
## Overview
HNS has a hard-cap of 2,040,000,000 coins. 66% of this was pre-mined and 46.6% of all HNS was aidropped to free and open source developers.

## Burning
At the end of a [TLD auction](/en/auction) all the money paid by the winner do not go to anyone, it is burned (locked away and never usable again).
According to [Shake Stats](https://shakestats.com/) the HNS analytics website, over 1% of the total HNS supply has already been burned in auctions.
Many Handshake community members have embraced the burn meme and incorporated burning HNS into their applications like [shakedex](https://shakedex.readthedocs.io/en/latest/community_burn.html)
