Hubspot purchased the domain name connect.com for $10 million last quarter. Elliot Silver noticed the domain buyout in April, and the firm disclosed the purchase price in an SEC filing that George Kirikos spotted.

The firm right now forwards the domain to network.hubspot.com, which is used for a social network.

Hubspot co-founder and CTO Dharmesh Shah is a fan of good domain names. Earlier this year, he paid $100,000 for WordPlay.com for a Wordle-like game.

It’s the second eight-figure domain sale we’ve learned regarding in as many weeks. The prior week, Escrow.com disclosed that it handled escrow for NFTs.com last $15 million. That domain sale is second only to voice.com at $30 million for all-time publicly disclosed domain sales.
