# Welcome!

### What is dotHYPE?

dotHYPE transforms names into modular, programmable identity containers built for the HyperEVM era. Whether you’re here to claim your first `.hype` name, integrate identity into your dApp, or explore the architecture behind it all, we’ve designed dotHYPE to meet you where you are clear, composable, and future-ready. It starts with naming, then becomes identity infrastructure.
