[NeverLoseVision]

Some nice news just came across my desk and wanted to pass along for your viewing pleasure.

FranceBitcoin [.com] - is for sale by the owner for a flat fee of 30 Bitcoins

CanadaBitcoin [.com] - is for sale by the owner for "double digit Bitcoin offers only"

ArgentinaBitcoin [.com] - is NOT for sale according to the owner, regardless of price

NetherlandsBitcoin [.com] - is NOT for sale according to the owner, regardless of price

ChinaBitcoin [.com] - is for sale by the owner for a flat fee of $5,000 USD

UAEBitcoin [.com] - is for sale by the owner for a flat fee of 60 Bitcoins

Bitcoin [.me] - Just sold on SEDO for $10,000 according to TheDomains which is an industry leading blog owned and operated by a very successful and knowledgable domain investor.

Here is the post:  http://www.thedomains.com/2014/01/02/bitcoin-me-sells-for-10000/

These names have great potential in the right hands. Local "geo-domains" have a very strong track record and create a timeless brand advantage in my opinion. It's only a matter of time until the Bitcoin market expands and the digital marketing follows.

Hmmm, good idea, maybe we should run and register 20-30 of those babies...

ChinaBitcoin [.com] - is for sale by the owner for a flat fee of $5,000 USD

Jeeeez, that's a pathetic number, considering the size of China....

[NeverLoseVision]

I agree, $5k USD for ChinaBitcoin [.com] is an absolute steal.

A bit more interesting though, the owner of IndiaBitcoin [.com] and ColombiaBitcoin [.com] is Mr. Sunny Ray who is the Director of Business Development at Buttercoin [.com] who is backed by Google Ventures and Y-Combinator.

$10k for bitcoin.me is a ridiculously great deal, grats to buyer.

[MikeXBT]

I may be interested in ChinaBitcoin.com . Would you be able to PM over contact info for the owner?

[daviducsb]

Is this going to become the official "domain for sale" thread?  If so, cool:
I have bitcoinganja.com, bitganja.com, bitspeculator.com, bitcoinartgallery.com for sale.

It sounds like it is pending sale based on a conversation I have had with a third party.

I was being serious, but you are not the seller anyways, are you?

The numbers are interesting and tell me that the price at the very moment might be kind of (almost) justified, but the potential, the potential...

The CHinabitcoin.com price is rather low, that struck me too.  I wonder if it's because it's a .com address.  Do CHinese people use .com addresses?  Maybe it's because they woud never go to a .com address?  and you'd only get AMericans there?

I am NOT the seller nor do I know the seller or have any tie to him. He is a individual located in China, based on the whois data.

The dot com brand has penetrated every corner of the globe. While each country operates their own ccTLD (.ca, .de, .se, .jp, etc) some are used for generic and branding purposes; .TV, .Me, .CC, etc., are examples of this. At the end of the day ".com" still trumps the global domain asset investment and development arenas for numerous reasons. ChinaBitcoin[.com] is likely the foundation to a great local "China Bitcoin" company and vehicle to instant trust and organic traffic which leads to a competitive advantage ---> exactly why tens of millions of dollars have exchanged hands each and every year since 2006. That being said, it is important to realize every domain owner has his or her own perception of value and threshold for a "buy it now" conversation. But as mentioned, I have been told there is a sale pending.

Come on guys, the whole idea behind BTC is to be above all countries. A domain name "countryname-bitcoin.com" is absolutely worthless.

LoL. Thats pretty humorous.

No offense but very clearly you have ZERO experience with global marketing, domain assets, or intellectual property.

No need to reply. These are the type of posts that initiate unprofessional and uneducated "forum wars" and I'm not interested in participating.

Take care.

I don't see how chinabitcoin.com can be this worth.
It's totally worthless because chinese people would search for 比特币中国 (already taken), rather than "china bitcoin".
Why they would search in english if they could use their own language?

You can't see "how" because you're not familiar with the domain name industry - or - the valuation metrics and development potential of such a name. It's ok! I will not lose any sleep over you not understanding. As the OP, I was merely passing along industry related research for the public to digest.

For your information, "China Bitcoin" is searched 720 times per month with a suggest bid of $2.09 per click, which is represented by Google within the advertiser dashboard. There are 156,000,000 results in Google for China Bitcoin and 164,000 results in quotes; "China Bitcoin".

Further, on Google.com.hk there are 180,000,000 results with 164,000 in quotes. That's a lot of information, a lot of interest, and a lot of potential.

Like it, love it, hate it...or don't quite understand it, it's a reality.

I've been working in advertising from 1995 to 1999 and I was making good money.
It's actually possible that some people may value a site named "countryname-bitcoin.com" but it would be wrong. All the companies I'm working for nowadays are global, with websites in different languages, but .com ; .net or .org domain suffixes so that people cannot tell where we're based (in a place where there's no tax). Thinking local is OK for selling vegetables, but for my business, and BTC, it's only a global village. Many old bitcoiners are also anarchists who don't trust governments, so the idea of going to a "countryname-bitcoin.com" website sounds just like going to the taxman, who only wants to kill BTC. No way!
