The best Handles are often taken and sold at high prices on secondary markets. Our suba Handles offer better value.

3. Suba Handles are more meaningful

With a glance, you can easily identify where a person, business, or organization is from.

Your suba Handle is a part of a national community. It will also hold more value within your country.

Ada Handle is a system for creating names on the Cardano blockchain that is easy to use and affordable. It is powered by a reliable blockchain network. Its main purpose is to convert a user-friendly alias into its corresponding Cardano address, and vice versa. This translation is consistent for all users, so everyone sees the same address for a given alias.

Elevate your Web 3 presence with Suba (Handle.Africa), we are committed to provide affordable, meaningful, and recognizable Handles to every person and organization in Africa.

ISO 3166-1 is a standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that defines codes for the names of countries. ISO 3166-1 two-letter country codes are the most widely used, most prominently for the Internet's country code top-level domains.

The three-letter country codes allow a better visual association between the codes and the country names than the two-letter codes.

suba Handles are subHandles using our root Handles country codes.

SubHandles are an extension of Handles designed to allow individuals, companies, and everyone else to mint additional Handles associated with a name or, in our case, country codes.

For example, tz is our root Handle, and chipo@tz is a subHandle.

SubHandles are almost identical to the root Handles and exist in the same CIP-25 NFT format.

Handles and suba Handles can be equally personalized and used.

There will be as many suba Handles as you want. There is no limit. Provided that the Handle has not been previously minted, you’ll be able to mint them.

It is not possible to reserve a Handle. Handles are allocated on a first come, first served basis. Grab yours before someone else does!

Handles are limited to the following UTF-8 characters:
Alphanumeric: a to z and 0 to 9
Dash: -
Underscore: _
