ENS Labs has proposed activating ENSv2 in a way that would stop new registrations through the current ENSv1 naming system. Existing .eth holders would not face a migration deadline, and the remaining ENSv2 admin roles would be handed to the DAO. The proposal also points to a shift of activity toward the newer protocol version while leaving current .eth names in place for holders.
