Non-fungible token (NFT) collection Pudgy Penguins joined hands with Web3 domain provider Unstoppable Domains, allowing users to access Pudgy World with their .pudgy domain names.&nbsp;
On July 10, the two companies announced that .pudgy domain holders can sign into the virtual world using only their domain names. The team believes this adds an ownership layer to users’ Pudgy World Experience. 
With the new integration, users will no longer need to submit Web2-based credentials such as Google or Apple accounts to sign into the virtual world. Furthermore, the integration allows users to log into their accounts without traditional passwords.

<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/explained/the-concept-and-future-of-decentralized-web3-domain-names">Web3 domain names</a> are human-readable addresses that serve as a stand-in for crypto wallets. Instead of having a long string of random 42-letter characters as the crypto wallet address, Web3 domains enhance transactions with more straightforward names representing addresses. 
On Jan. 10, Sandy Carter, Unstoppable Domains’ chief operating officer, explained how Web3 domains <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/web3-domains-unassuming-force-in-crypto-mass-adoption-unstoppable-domains-coo">play a vital role in Web3 adoption</a>. The executive said that Web3 domains have instant utility, which addresses criticisms of the lack of uses for some blockchain-based products like NFTs.

In a press release, Carter emphasized the benefits of integrating Web3 domains with Pudgy World access. The executive said: 
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “This latest integration with Pudgy Penguins empowers users to truly own their digital identities and control their virtual experience.”
</blockquote>
Carter believes that by using .pudgy domains, users are liberated from Web2 constraints. Carter also expressed excitement about users gaining greater sovereignty over their digital selves and shaping this new reality.
The .pudgy domains serve as unique identifiers, enabling users to showcase their individuality within the Pudgy Penguins community. The team believes the integration goes beyond simple usernames and represents users’ digital selves in the virtual world.
Unlike conventional logins, .pudgy domains allow for long-term management of digital identities. They provide access to exclusive chats, events and activities, enriching user engagement and making interactions more meaningful.

Meanwhile, Pudgy Penguins CEO Luca Netz also highlighted the significance of the development. The executive believes this offers “a more unified experience” through the integration with Unstoppable Domains. 
“Being able to login with their .pudgy domains provides a uniquely Web3 experience, which is perfect because, in the virtual world, individuality and ownership are hugely important,” Netz explained.
