ENS or Ethereum Name Service is a growing phenomenon in the Ethereum community. You might already know that ENS is most useful in providing a short and elegant name for your long and gibberish ethereum address. However, do you also know that ENS can actually support addresses for other cryptocurrencies as well? On top of that, ENS can also be used as a naming service for websites, Tor .onion sites and text records. For more info, you can refer to this blog post.
As long as the SP delegation is still active, your sub-name will remain active.
Ethereum is an entirely different realm versus Steem. While many Steemians are familiar with Steem, not all of us know how to operate in the Ethereum environment. Furthermore, even though it is easy to get an Ethereum address, it is not so straightforward to buy ETH depending on which country you are from. Getting your own ENS requires ETH. If you have a ETH address but do not own ETH, it probably does not make sense for you to purchase ETH just to get ENS.
Getting a ENS name costs at least $5 per year if you are getting it from ENS App directly. However, you will need to pay the cost in ETH. If you want to get one with credit card, you can do so via NameStack, but that will cost you $6.99 per year. Hence, if you just want to experiment to see whether ENS suits you, then you should give Steem ENS service a try.
If you are active on Steem, you probably are a budding social influencer. Many of us blogs about cryptocurrencies and decentralization etc. Therefore an ENS name is a cool thing to have as it shows that you have skin in the game. There are several prominent figures in the crypto-space who are already using ENS.
For example, Vitalik Buterin,
Ryan Sean Adams,
And closer to us, 
Having a simple ENS name also helps you get tips in ETH easier. You never know when someone will drop you some ETH to appreciate your cool content.
By having a Steem-branded .eth address as your Twitter profile name also has an added effect of promoting Steem. Imagine having steempeak.eth name as your Twitter profile, naturally people who see it might get curious what Steempeak is about.
