How to Buy a .et Domain with Bitcoin, Ethereum, or USDT

Crypto Meets Ethiopian Domains

Traditional domain registrars want your credit card. Ethiopian registrars want a bank wire to Addis Ababa. At ET Domains, we accept Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and 100+ other cryptocurrencies — making us the first and only .et domain platform with native crypto payments.

Why Crypto for Domain Registration?

• No banking friction — skip international wire transfers and currency conversion
• Privacy — register domains without sharing credit card details
• Speed — crypto payments confirm in minutes, not days
• Global access — works from any country, no banking restrictions
• Lower fees — no 3% credit card processing surcharge

Supported Cryptocurrencies

We support all major chains and tokens through our payment processor:

• Bitcoin (BTC) — including Lightning Network for instant settlement
• Ethereum (ETH) — ERC-20 tokens also accepted
• Tether (USDT) — on Ethereum, Tron, and BSC networks
• USD Coin (USDC) — stablecoin for exact-amount payments
• 100+ altcoins — Litecoin, Solana, Dogecoin, Polygon, and more

Step-by-Step: Register a .et Domain with Crypto

1. Search for your domain at https://etdomains.tech
2. Add to cart and proceed to checkout
3. Create an account (email only — no KYC required)
4. Select cryptocurrency as your payment method
5. Send payment to the generated wallet address or scan the QR code
6. Automatic registration — once payment confirms, our system registers your domain within minutes

Payment Tips

• Use stablecoins (USDT/USDC) to avoid price volatility during the payment window
• Lightning Network is fastest for Bitcoin — confirms in seconds
• Double-check the network — sending USDT on the wrong chain will delay your payment
• Payment window is 60 minutes — make sure you send within the timeframe

After Payment: What Happens Next?

Once your crypto payment is confirmed on-chain:

1. Our system automatically initiates domain registration with ethio telecom
2. Registration completes within 5–15 minutes (fully automated)
3. You receive a confirmation email with your domain details
4. Access your domain dashboard to manage DNS and nameservers
