[Daily Auction] 300+ Two Letter .bit Domains (Namecoin)

[phelix]

yeah scammer tag, good one.

saw that one coming, was just not sure from who  

edit: I wonder who the first one would be to scream if I did not try whatever I can to enforce the rules.

For your contemplation:

The names offered for sale were registered Dec 5 2011, long after the launch, in blocks 31913-31919.
The cost was 0.48 NMC per domain to register (not the 4.8 NMC it would have been around block 25100, or the 48 NMC it would have been around block 660). The seller also registered letter + number combinations, so if you want g1.bit, he'd be your guy too. They were registered because they were cheap enough, not because of incredible foresight.

Typical block:

More info: The .01 NMC op_name_new transactions were done the day before: http://explorer.dot-bit.org/b/31787

[deepceleron]

Price was about .035 - .04 BTC/NMC. (edit: added exchange prices below)

I was gonna dump all the transactions here, but BBcode freaks out because of the size and brackets.
Here's the A letters though:

thanks for digging that up. do you also [happen] to know the price of nmc back then? I think it was a short time after the merged mining drop.

edit: thanks for reducing the size of that other post

edit2: just as you said, they were cheap enough. and yes I also have registered a couple more    the first one ~50nmc

and they were never expensive:
07/24/11 11:47:31    Price:0.02740000
06/27/11 03:45:45    Price:0.02675002
