GAWminers spend 1.1 million USD for ONLY a domain
![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)
i think the domain only sold $50.000
i think they should use money to improve their service / make faster performance & lover energy ASIC

Is it valuable only because it's short?
I don't understand why
![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
domain become expensive, because :
1. the name of domain is popular (in this case are BTC/Bitcoin)
2. short/easy to remember (example : clothes.com)
3. previously that domain is used by someone else that very popular (example :friendster.com)
