25 end user domain name sales counting three big non-.Com domains
A big week for end user domain name sales counting non-.com domains.
This stretch’s end user domain name sales list is notable not only since of its size but also since the first three domain names aren’t .com. There’s a .org sale I previously wrote regarding, a .co and a .ventures. Two of the three are related to blockchain. Heck, maybe the third is, too.
As I created this list I realized how hard it will be to deliver this information in the future if registrars obscure registrant info. Journalists seem to be left out of discussions regarding legitimate access to Whois info.
Here are the end user sales I found in Sedo’s sales list:
(You can view previous lists like this here.)
Star.org $225,000 – More on this sale here. It’s a blockchain firm.
Nurture.co $45,000 – The domain is still in escrow but this is an end-user price.
Blockchain.ventures $42,000 – Blockchain ventures has created a couple blockchain-based businesses and isn’t afraid of fresh TLDs. Two of its businesses include coin.dance and blockchain.poker.
New50.com $23,205 – Interesting sale by Frank Schilling. The buyer is the maker of Cologuard, a non-invasive substitute to colonoscopies. You can bet this will be some sort of marketing domain since 50 is when people are supposed to get colonoscopies to check for colon cancer.
CoinLink.com $22,000 – This appears to be an end user sale as the buyer put “coinlink” as the registrant organization. The seller is the owner of CoinWeek.com, a cryptocurrency coin news site.
