There are quite a number of topics related to this issue. You should have your own judgment. For me, it has a bubble element, and also elements of the future. So if you think it's a bubble, do not invest, and if you see the future in it, invest in it, and risk is there exists, because it is investment!

There are a lot of such articles on the Internet. Some think that it is a bubble but as for me there is a combination of both future and bubble.
It is better to conduct your own research before investing

When you compare the market size, you should notice that we are still far from "bubble". Cryptocurrencies are something new that will change how we use money, but there are some threats. There are many coins that are copies of others and they should not be worth anything. The same thing goes for ICOs. There are many ICOs which are not worth investing in, but people still think that they can become millionaires thanks to crypto and that's why they are trying to invest in every project without even studying the whole whitepaper and other project's information properly.

I would say most premium domains will have been purchased already. However there is always room for information sites related to new Alt Coins that you believe have future value and will generate good traffic in the future!

It may be worth buying up some obvious domain names however if you look at the biggest companies in crypto, the names they choose are pretty much all unrelated to crypto. Binanace, Poloniex, Ethereum ect. Maybe buy domains that contain "bit". We have a few companies with this within the name.

France recently tried to steal the france.com domain from its rightful owner. If france is awarded the domain, squatting on domain names could become less lucrative and profitable as there could be a greater precedent for large entities stealing domain names from their rightful owners.

The French government is being sued over the way it has sought to take over the France.com web domain.

In 2015, France started legal action against Frenchman Jean-Noel Frydman, who had registered France.com in 1994.

Two years later, a French court ruled in France's favour and the government began to lobby domain host web.com to take control away from Mr Frydman.

And now Mr Frydman, who built a business around the domain, says France has "illegally" seized the site.

He says France.com was taken away from him without warning in mid-March.

And he has now begun legal action in Virginia in a bid to regain control of it.

Mr Frydman is suing the French Republic, its Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Atout France tourist agency and domain registrar Verisign.

He alleges the government did not ask to license or buy the domain and instead "misused" the legal system to seize it.

There are merchants like namecheap.com which sold domain names as low as $0.88. Lower pricing, wider availability and greater domain name flexibility, in terms of there being a wider assortment of standardized domain name prefixes to choose from could make it easier to sidestep people holding on to domain names.

Domain name squatting is an old thing. Years and years ago(I'm talking decades), people could buy a domain name like sony.com and sell it to sony for $50,000 to $100,000+. I'm not certain whether that still happens. The golden age of domain name HODL'ing could have ended awhile ago.

Well if it is a bubble, then go ahead and invest on it and sell it at it's peak. You should really be keeping an eye on your investments and really keep track when it will peak. Then again, if you sell and it's nit a bubble but a very stable investment then you will regret your sell. Advise? Study what you're getting into.

Unless you have already experience doing that in other markets then forget about it, that is not really new, people have been doing that forever and it used to be very lucrative, not only you could do that with crypto domain names or even with the name of big business you could do that even with people, buy a domain with their name and if the person was famous you could eventually sell it to that person for a profit.
