A system for distributed domain name address resolution, including top-level domain name address resolution, and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the system, a blockchain stores distributed domain names with respective Internet Protocol address information. A smart contract, which defines shared logic to execute operations on the blockchain, runs on the blockchain. With respect to distributed domain names, the system may perform read operations to identify the Internet Protocol address information, create operations to create a new distributed domain name with respective Internet Protocol address information, delete operations to remove a distributed domain name, and update operations to update the mapping between a distributed domain name and the respective Internet Protocol address information.
