## Description

Kinetic Client is your gateway to the decentralized web. This extension serves two primary purposes:
<ol><li><strong>Seamless Browsing:</strong> It allows you to natively resolve and view <code>.kin</code> domains (e.g., <code>example.kin</code>) directly in your browser without relying on centralized DNS servers.</li><li><strong>Network Participation:</strong> By simply having the extension installed, you run a light node that actively participates in the Kinetic network and helps secure the mesh.</li></ol>
The extension operates completely locally, maintaining a secure connection to the network to resolve domains quickly and transparently.
