My prediction is the rise of the Security Token (Digital Securities). We will see the beginning of the "Tokenization of Everything" in 2019.

 

[Fancy.domains]

I will continue to focus on .com, .org and nGTLDs (great keyword + extension combos).

Personally, I have never focused that much on current trends, but if I am able to snap a good canna/tech name, I am happy of course.

More new gTLDs will come. Be ready to grab some!

2019 will be slower than 2018.

 

[BaileyUK]

2019 will be slower than 2018.

Indeed, as a 63 year old seen most of the ups and downs, I do think we are in for a fair chance of a Global recession in 2019. (probably similar to the one of the early 1970's) Employment levels may be up but confidence is way down. It will really be a culmination of all the negative aspects of 2018 coming home to roost. The immense growth of the internet will have played its part in this. I anticipate a surge in Dog-eat-dog transactions and business collapses in 2019.

I'd love to be wrong but I don't think I am. As for the internet its a case of fewer businesses willing to take an expensive plunge or put more eggs into that same basket. This will reflect into the domain name market and indeed a lot of the internet based markets.

I predict I will get one year older, 5 pounds fatter and 5x greyer.

[Mister Funsky]

Gonna cull the herd of just 'okay' domains. Plans are to develop a few to help subsidize my domain buying habit...may go to domain rehab if I can find a ten step program.

ROBOT

I agree with XRP

 

[NYJimbo]

If the recession kicks in, I expect more sales that end up with the buyer not paying.

 

[PeakDots]

Some good predictions in this thread

I also predict "The Internet of Things" will gain more traction

Global Recession

 

[BaileyUK]

I think those of us that watch the global stage and markets realize there's a 'anchoring-down' (Drop anchor) going on. Many of the recent growth markets have tried to talk there way out of any pending slump but in reality are preparing for market protectionism taken a leap forward.. Do I think there will be a rise in the traditional safe havens, this time I'm not so sure. More likely a consolidation in holding cash reserves to see any short-fall through.

Chancellor Merkels open-door policy for Europe was a big mistake and a sign of troubled times ahead, Contrast that with Trumps protectionism and closed door policy (and dare I say the UK, the same) China about to enter a slump in exports and internet companies pretty much at a max in regards to available cash to spend or indeed to even bring in. All points to Zero (or negative) growth for possibly a year or two. Asia, Australasia and the far east will only serve the same in terms of whats best to see things through

[Satyajit Adhikary]

Crypto will rise again.
XRP will gain market share.

Green energy like solar would spread faster than ever.

Mobile apps (except a handful) would lose further significance.

VR, AI, electric car, drone, robot, cannabis would remain evergreen.

For corporate firms, I foresee a lot of mergers & acquisition to consolidate position.

For domains, I foresee great demand for:
- Blockchain & related technology domains
- Cannabis & related alternate health domains
- A.I. & diverse smart technology domains

For me, accelerated growth to abundant wealth
