Title: Can there be a new dot com bubble with crypto related domain names ? Post by: domainer.com on May 02, 2018, 07:59:25 AM The question says it all ! Can the domain prices go up in the near future ? Do you think this could be a good investment ?
Title: Re: Can there be a new dot com bubble with crypto related domain names ? Post by: sasa0220 on May 02, 2018, 09:03:43 AM you should invest in the crypto itself but not on the domain names. Why would to target a another investment opportunity when you can invest an actual industry.

Post by: Jet Cash on May 02, 2018, 10:10:25 AM If you have the skills to find good names, then they can be a good speculation/investment. If you are inexperienced in finding and evaluating good names, then you will probably just be throwing away the registration fees.

Post by: jseverson on May 03, 2018, 07:15:54 AM I would say the market could certainly get better, but I don't know if I would call it a bubble. If you're hunting for domains that new cryptos are likely to use, the market is expanding. According to this site (https://www.icodata.io/stats/2017), there were a total of 871 ICOs in 2017. So far, in 2018, we already have 674. That means more and more are popping up, and thus you're more likely to hit valuable ones. The amount they've been raising have been on a decline since December though, so the growth may stop or slow abruptly. Services seem to be getting more popular too, but I don't have statistics on those.
But yeah, as Jet Cash said, it's also dependent on your abilities to hunt them. Title: Re: Can there be a new dot com bubble with crypto related domain names ?

I don't really get what the domain names have to do with it. It's a bit like with vanity numbers in the old days, it's a nice gimmick, sure, but ultimately, who cares? People have their handful of site names they remember because the frequent them regularly but besides that, they use bookmarks (aka google)... Imo nobody cares about what name a site has unless it's especially witty or easy to remember. There are so many available TLDs out there, I don't think that there will be any (reasonable amount of) money be made with this. |
