How to create a .crypto domain name

After ENS, Unstoppable Domains is the popular NFT domain name provider out there. While ENS only provides .eth names, there are multiple options available with Unstoppable domains. The charges on Unstoppable domains are fixed in USD and are based on the length of the name you choose and TLD (top-level domain). A TLD is the segment that comes after the dot, such as .xyz and .crypto
