PopuraDNS – simple DNS server

PopuraDNS is a simple DNS server with decentralized domain names support.

PopuraDNS can:

  • Secure all your regular DNS queries with DNS-over-TLS.
  • Resolve the meshname protocol domains.
  • Resolve Alfis blockchain domains.
  • Resolve OpenNIC alternative DNS root domains.
  • Can work as an authoritative server for your domains.

This is free and open source software. But it doesn’t appear to be actively maintained.
