Was that your first WHOIS query there mr. programmer? I kid, I kid...

As jacko0088 mentioned, the domains are locked, like they should be, so that's why clientTransferProhibited is in the WHOIS.  The domains were registered in December 2015, so the necessary 60 day holding period has long since passed, and are free to be transferred.

Visit drcraigwright.com and note the "Bid on bitcointalk.org" link points to this thread.  Need more proof? Just ask.  I can add some text to the web page or a custom TXT DNS record for the domain.


Sorry, haven't been tracking it.

Free push to your account at Namecheap, or you pay for transfer to your registrar of choice.

Visit the domain for proof of ownership.  I can provide more proof (ie. new TXT DNS records) if you really need it.

If you win the auction and you don't want to use escrow you must send the BTC first.  Then I will transfer the domain name.

Otherwise, escrow will be done via a multisig transaction at bitrated.com.  You can choose the moderator as long as they are one of the top 10 trusted moderators at bitrated.com.  We will split the moderator fees 50/50, if any.
