Linagee Name Regisrar
---------------------

The first ever [transaction](https://etherscan.io/tx/0x5c504ed432cb51138bcf09aa5e8a410dd4a1e204ef84bfed1be16dfba1b22060) on ethereum main network happened on August 7, 2015.

The next day Linagee deployed the contract on August 8, 2015 at [0xf18ca6c25eafb634dac8256abe8bb2257f5ad2a1437221c22cbb6b870f97a9a7](https://etherscan.io/tx/0xf18ca6c25eafb634dac8256abe8bb2257f5ad2a1437221c22cbb6b870f97a9a7), this is the first registar [contract](https://etherscan.io/address/0x5564886ca2c518d1964e5fcea4f423b41db9f561) on the Ethereum blockchain, predating ENS. Linagee first shared the contract on [Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/3iau5v/name_registrar_is_awesome/). Soon the contract was forgotten.

Now, by using Artificial Intelligence, decompiling every contract within the first 300k blocks of the Ethereum blockchain, the contract is rediscovered and brought back to life by ethereum community.

The best thing about Linagee registrar is it only costs gas fee to register and it is completely free for life time.

Now official linagee contract and a community built ERC 721 wrapper contract consumes more than 16% of total ethereum network gas according to etherscan.

Linagee domains end with .og while ens uses .eth standard. I have minted six of these domains for just 2 usd worth of gas.

If you wish to mint a domain or just check out the front end, Head over [here](https://linageenameregistrar.com/).

It is suggested to use a fresh wallet because the contract is not verified by etherscan yet.
