[ANN] [ICO] nametoken (NAT) - the first decentralized domain eco system

[Heimer]

How do you intend to pay individual's to park domains on your website, when other sites charge for it. It's akin to a fitness trainer paying me to help me work out. Am really curious on how this model will be utilized to earn a profit. ppl will create multitude of domains just to earn NATS from it

There are companys like bodis/voodoo/sedo where you can park your domain and they redirect to advertisements. I think something like that will it be.

Competition is always good. Let's see how nametoken can comipte with them

Hmm. Right.

You dont know how it works? Is you have a nice domain - then you can earn for adversiting on your domain.
For example: Domain Sex.com earned around 10 millions $ only in parking their domain... for few years.

so what s about? buying a customized web domain with cryptocurrency and maybe resell it after a few years with a great gain...i am right?

Well then, just read this, not sure if it was spoken of already here, but I gotta say, thats great news for the project and excites me even more. I am really loving the progress here!

yes, this business working fine now. China (and not only) people buying more and more nice domain year by year...
All 6-th numbers domains - already not avaliable for free register... they only selling now...

Smart to chose a sector where there is a 100% change of the scarcity of good domains increasing and thus the value as well. I never really thought about it, but that is a good business strategy!

Yes, it is always wise to have an open mind and consider what might big some time in the future.

Its like a trading and you have to make sure that you buy a domain whose price will go up

Yes, quite right. Some domain may be wourth nothing, and may be some ll cost a huge money in 1 or few years. Its depend of several factors and also from luck

I looked at the introduction, it's a block chain project about domain name, so far has no similar projects, I think this project will be promising, after all, the future is a network of the world, everything is the root of the world of the Internet

Huge market, huge idea, good luck NAT team

When did the idea develope to include a cryptocurrency your Project? Was it, when you realize how easy it is to collect money with this form of crowdfunding, or was it the technology itself?

Hi and thanks for your question.
This isn't about just doing an ICO since it is easy. 1st: it is not 2nd: if we would not believe in decentralization and that the domain business needs this, we would have done a basic crowdfunding

We came up with the idea, cause cryptocurrency gives us much more possibilities. You can put many features on smart contracts, the whole community value is perfect for decentralization.
Things like crowdfunding and co-ownership of domains, the possibility to pay via nametoken for services or domains but also being able to trade tokens on exchange platforms and maybe generate more value through this.

[Jens79]

I have a question about the case study.

The founder of Nametoken has bought the domain name “druckerpatronen.de” (ink cartridges) a few years ago as a domain investment.

The domain has been developed and is now one of the largest online shops for printer cartriges in Germany.

Did the founder develop the business behind druckerpatronen.de too, or did he sell the domain name to a 3rd party who then developed the site?

If it's the prior case, then I do not see how the case study is relevant. Owning the domain name and actually developing a business on that domain are very different things and require completely different skillsets. Is the success owed to the domain name or the business skills of the developer?

I wonder because some parked domain names without any business attached to them have been sold for astronomical amounts of money too.

Hi there,
yes, the founder developed the whole thing itself. The whole range from making errors at the beginning to learning from those errors and generating a powerful process in order to make this ecommerce project as big as it is.

if you would like to know more about this, you can always contact us.

just to make sure: there was nothing outsourced to other parties. the whole project was done by us.

Are you going perform function as domain registrar? If yes, you have lisence already? Also you planning to provide a hosting? 

[Jens79]

Our primary focus is the domain marketplace with all its features. Later we will work on hosting, since I believe decentralized hosting will get very important.
Regarding registry: Since we run a really huge domain portfolio already, we have great conditions at some registrars. So this is currently not our priority. But we will definately consider this part as well.

[bitsurfer2014]

Since this domain marketplace is decentralized, i think it could facilitate an easy access to domain name buyers and sellers as well as give enough opportunities  to others, to get good investments in the domain name industry.

There seems like there's a few flaws in the premise behind this project...

[gawajn]

so what is the max number of tokens you offer and what is the mentioned bonus system
of the market place app?

[toolucky98]

so what is the max number of tokens you offer and what is the mentioned bonus system
of the market place app?

Do you mean the token supply? the token supply is 98.000.000 NAT and 90% of all tokens will be distributed in crowdsale

There is always some flaws especially in the cryptoworld, these flaws when realized will come to correction or development for the better.
Nothing is perfect here but still we are in this field because it's giving us satisfaction and some money, a bread and butter for some people who dedicated their life in crypto.
