  "chain": "base",
  "txHash": "0x...",
  "contact": {
    "firstName": "Jane",

• currency (required): USDC, USDT, ETH, or BTC
• chain (required for stablecoins/ETH): ethereum, arbitrum, base, or optimism

Important: The response includes opensrsUsername and opensrsPassword for post-purchase DNS and transfer management. Always present these credentials directly to the user and instruct them to store the credentials securely (e.g., in a password manager). Never persist these credentials in conversation history, logs, or any file. These are sensitive third-party credentials that grant full control over the registered domain.

GET /api/v1/orders?domain={domain}

Returns up to 50 latest orders. Results may include OpenSRS management credentials — always present these to the user directly and remind them to store credentials securely.

Native ETH and Bitcoin are also accepted but require price verification via /api/v1/prices.

Example Workflow

1. Check availability: GET /api/v1/domains/check?domain=coolstartup.com
2. Confirm pricing with the user
3. User sends stablecoin payment on their preferred chain
4. Capture the transaction hash from the user
5. Register: POST /api/v1/domains/register with tx hash and contact details
6. Deliver credentials securely — present OpenSRS management details to the user and remind them to save in a password manager
