Mike Mann sold MotherDuck.com for $60K in June the company just raised $47.5M
Domain investor Mike Mann sold the domain name MotherDuck.com last June for the sum of $60,000 dollars. Now, the company that acquired the domain reportedly raised a whopping $47.5 million dollars; the start-up provides data analytics in the cloud. It's amazing what a domain name can do for one's brand.

Should you keep crypto domains in your portfolio for next year 2023?
Crypto values have witnessed a dramatic decline in 2022, after hitting an all-time high in 2021. Many domain investors registered or acquired domains related to the cryptocurrency market, hoping to sell them to start-ups. Perhaps it's time to drop these assets but some might want to hold off a bit more. Join the discussion and share your views.

Should I buy multi times dropped domains but still having search demand?
A lot of domains that drop get picked up by the next investor in line, with high hopes of revenue or a potential sale. When a domain drops multiple times, is it still an asset worthy to pick up, or should it be avoided? The discussion reveals investors' strategies on the subject, and it's an opportunity to learn from their feedback.

Need your advice!
A domain investor new to the "game" began his journey six months ago, with great hopes and expectations about succeeding. Several hundred domains later he has yet to sell a single domain name. The domainer is seeking advice on the use of aftermarket platforms, such as Dan and Afternic, versus GoDaddy auctions or fixed price selling on NamePros.
