Gang, I got some #questions

I’d like to get nip-05 verified but have some basic hesitancy about the situation.

If I pay for purple on Damus does that automatically come with access to verification? Is it best to go through a paid provider like ‘alby’? Or ‘nostr directory’ or ‘vida’ one of those services I read about?

Can anyone help me to distinguish what domain names are available under what service? Or if there is a benefit to using one service over the other. I’m certainly looking for a self custodial situation. Perhaps a fully custom domain if that’s even a thing?

Looking to be verified, with a custom domain - and for the ability to move sats to and fro, into and out of cold storage - into a wallet I attach here on damus or primal.

Still new here on #nostr and learning the protocol, please forgive my ignorance. Thank you for your help with understanding.
