Composability refers to the ability to combine different protocols, applications, or assets like building blocks to create new functionality. In Web3, composable systems can seamlessly integrate with each other without requiring custom partnerships or complex integrations. Tokenized domains are inherently composable—they can be used as collateral in lending protocols, integrated into identity systems, combined with other NFTs, or utilized in DeFi applications.

Editor

Victor Zhou is a technology founder and standards editor focused on digital identity and trust. He founded Namefi, edits Ethereum Improvement Proposals, and previously led smart-contract architecture work at Google Labs.

His work sits at the intersection of naming, ownership, and the systems people use to establish identity online. That perspective makes him especially interested in the way names move between personal meaning, public recognition, and digital infrastructure.

For Namefi, Victor edits and writes about domains as durable digital identity: how names become ownable onchain assets, how tokenization changes custody and trust, and what naming can learn from the systems people use to establish identity online.
