Yes, traditional domain names are centralized. ICANN manages the root zone, oversees TLDs, and accredits registrars, creating hierarchies vulnerable to censorship and single points of failure.
Handshake has the best decentralized design. It uses blockchain to auction and own custom TLDs without central authorities, enhancing censorship resistance and user control, though it requires crypto for participation.
