While it just eked onto the list at #20, -hub is an interesting keyword. It can be applied to just regarding any topic, and there are many public sales as examples.

Here are some of the sales captured by NameBio over the past few months, all in the four-figure range: estimatehub.com, cryptohub.co.uk, exhibithub.com, pullhub.com, arbitragehub.com, and usdhub.com.

Larger sales this year include constructionhub.com for $14,153 at Sedo and thegaminghub.com for $39,888 at DomainMarket.

As with most domains on Afternic’s top keywords list, good luck hand registering marginal domains with -hub. You’ll have to look on the aftermarket and expired domains to acquire these.
