# Web3 Identity

SELF, in comparison to other naming services, doesn't use domains. Ordinary people don't care about domains, just nicknames. People love things made simple.&#x20;

SELF can be used as an entire digital identity, not just as a naming service. It will allow much more than easy transfers; it can be your online ID for numerous applications. For example, connect your wallet to a website which supports web3 protocol, provide a public email for communications, obtain official identity documentation stored on-chain, loyalty cards and much more.&#x20;

As the possibilities are endless, we will develop an expansive ecosystem for the SELF project.&#x20;
