It’s a seller’s market for domains suggestive of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and blockchains. The domain name Tokens.com sold for $500,000 in February. Cryptoworld.com sold for $195,000 in January. Eth.com sold for $2 million at the end of 2017. Blockchain.us wants $3.45 million, and Ethereum.com is asking for $10 million. In this climate, a domain like Crypto.com is likely worth millions of dollars. But Matt Blaze, who has owned it since 1993, isn’t selling.

“No, my domain name isn’t for sale. Yes, I mean it. Yes, I’ve probably already muted you,” he tweeted in September.

Interesting read. In the article there are estimates that Crypto.com is worth $5 to $10 million, what do you think?

I have both at once, in one hand:

Crypto.Life

Coin.Life

...and I'm NOT: Ph.D in Computer Science... research scientist... a numismatist, followed his dreams...

Life has already shown me reality! ...and unfortunately, this is far from dreams.

cyptolife.com and coinlife.com not worth much.

I don't see crypto currencies having a long term future, so I'd cash in on it right now if i was the owner.

Some countries have banned it, others will do the same and just read Google have banned crypto-currency ads.

I wish i invested in things like Bitcoin earlier but would never invest in something so unstable and controversial now personally, i know others have different opinions on crypto currencies and the direction they are heading but that's my opinion.

Meanwhile South Korea is about to reverse the ban there...

Kind of contradictory no? He is saying its "No..it's not for sale" but "would involve a credible offer of an obscenely large amount of fiat currency"
I knew it was a joke and as someone rightly stated above that everything is for sale at the right price, he just proved that in the lines you emboldened.

So, we can conclude that the domain name is for sale if he is given an offer that he can't resist.

I would sell it while it's valuable. Technology improves very fast. Crypto will lose value once a better tech is invented. It's already happening. Altcoins have better technology than bitcoin. Currently we call all those stuff "crypto currencies", thus crypto (dot) com has a value as of now. What if we call all those new payment methods "x" currencies or only "x" ? :)

I get from those statements that he's saying that he has never had a large enough offer (thus far) to tempt him to consider selling.

And, oh, btw, it's not for sale.

Perhaps one day he will have a large enough offer to get him to sell, but we'll have to wait and see. Because most people are cheap(er) when it comes to domains; even in the crypto world. I suspect that an insane offer in the tens of millions (or higher) will get him to reconsider.

I wonder how long it will take until a big company sees the branding potential and places an irresistible offer.

someone call those stuff "investing"..

Yes I know. Investing dot com would be worth more if crypto currencies were only an investment. Investment part of crypto currencies depends on their functionality as a new technology. Their "limited supply" appeal can be substituted. For instance, supply of land or real estate is limited, gold supply is almost limited. So, appeal of crypto currencies depends heavily on their functionality and that functionality is vulnerable to improvements in technology. So it's a risky investment as speed of technological improvements is not slow.

solid name!

at the same time, I see a neat and ad-free website. wayback machine also shows that there is not that much change. And, Matt is right that crypto is for cryptography - google confirms this if you search it for the year 2011 (an example.) but, things have changed drastically now.

today crypto is cryptocurrency

Lucky him that is able to refuse any kind of offer. $ 5,000,000 - $ 10,000,000 may definitely change a person's life.

Agreed, I regged Crypto.Restaurant purely so I could say I own an exact match for Crypto
