Question,
I own Ordinals // Gateway in .com and now I see that the .io is developed by some company from Dubai called XCS Labs, and that the owner of the .xyz version is asking 50k for his domain.
Do you think my dot com could potentially sell for around that price too? or maybe more? I personally think it's kind of excessive but who knows?
Also, if I haven't received any offers yet for my domain, does that mean they just don't care about owning the dot com?
They could have offered as low as $100 on Dan, but they didn't. Thank you!
Those building in the Web3 space, often are in a hurry to get their site going and project launched. M/o with bin can slow this process
.io and .xyz is embraced by Web3 maxis ….
Some care about the .com , many of the smaller startups and small groups building platforms do not ….( at least early on, before growth)
I’ve come to the to the realization that when picking/ buying names …most in this niche …will opt to handreg .xyz or .io before spending $5K+ .com for a name if either of the 2 are available for reg or cheaper , than .com
…that’s not to say some will not …but these folks are building new tech and NFt projects weekly …. The ones that have passed seed funding rounds (been around a bit ) will / may upgrade and buy…( and some will have large budgets /coin and drop crypto on a .com )……but to get started unless is a KILLER Keyword com (+wallet + tech + pay) ….imho many will opt to reg something cheaper …as they already favor .xyz and .io and can find other Brandable alternatives…(this happen to me on DeFi brandables 3-4 years later , none of the 3 stepped up to buy my .coms ..they still run on .io .xyz or re branded )
This isn’t to say you shouldn’t have a Shoot The Moons…out there , heck I do…
Study and find a balance in what might work for you,…… it’s expensive with the .io. but it’s this reason IMO it’s best to lock up all 3 if you can .com .xyz .io and what you’ve shared here is exactly what I wanted to avoid so on most I own .com & .xyz ….and some all 3 with .io. that I feel strongly about…
Add to this most ordinal names are recent regs and the endusers know this too .
Cheers
