More than one applicant has claimed .super in public. That does
not make it a contention set. Contention sets are determined by ICANN
after Reveal Day, and a claim made on social media is not an
application.
Elsewhere, the CEOs of registrars Porkbun and Dynadot, Ray King and Todd Han, have reportedly formed a new entity called Oinkadot to apply for 25 strings: .anime, .bit, .bug, .cancel, .dine, .dragon, .ghost, .glitch, .hack, .heart, .king, .loop, .manga, .moon, .panda, .puff, .queen, .sign, .spice, .stack, .stay, .super, .weed, .wire and .zzz.
Freename, if it follows through, is likely to face competition from at least one other applicant, a company called 3DNS, which in June announced plans to apply for .chain and .super. 3DNS has Intercap as its registry partner, while Freename is partnered with registry ShortDot on a joint venture called WebUnited.
