This system allows users to assign easily memorable names to their Ethereum addresses (e.g., "vitalik.eth"), making it simpler to send and receive transactions and interact with decentralized applications.

If you forgot to renew your domain, it becomes available for public acquisition again. However, there's a safety net in the form of a 90-day grace period after expiration, during which only the original owner can renew the domain. Should this period lapse without renewal, the domain is opened up for new registrations, initially at a higher price that gradually reduces over 21 days. Even after the domain is released, it will still direct to your Ethereum address until a new owner updates the information.
