Wow, respect for such a long hold! And for your vision of course. Who would think back in 2000 such a name would have any sense, let alone such value... Congrats!

Thanks......Cryptography was around in the 90's in a form. Just not in the form as we know it today. I was lucky to be honest.

Awesome congratulations

Now that's how you HODL!!! Congrats!!

I think for everybody that's saying it's undersold is nuts. I highly doubt the buyer will ever see his money back in his life Corp doesn't sell that well. there's way better crypto + keywords the buyer could have bought for 16.5
Congrats to the seller you made out like a fat rat. Holding a name for 20 years is awesome especially when it pays out like this.

Ill eat my words when im proven other wise. Until then I still feel he paid way too much as a reseller. I KNOW I could have bought better with less then half the money.

yes your right
it may well boil down to each of us simply having different offers on table to pick from
and those are never identical for everyone at any given time

Good Sale

Yes...this is the problem I had to think about before I agreed to sell. I was thinking maybe I could hold longer for an even better sale. But in the end I was assured of $16.5k now or HOPE for more later.
Good luck if he gets more for it later. We both win!

Congrats on the sale!

For people saying it's undersold, put your self in the negotiations, I'd imagine you'd of taken the same amount or even less.

I assume you're saying this about others cause you would have taken same amount or less?

Yes, I would've taken anything over 10k and added more relevant inventory.

It's always easy for people to say 'too cheap' 'undersold' etc, it all depends on what you want to achieve from your investment.

I don’t think it oversold. If anything it undersold. Frankly it’s nice to see a non cheap domainer buying something here and it shared in public. There are so many here who want something for nothing. Reseller pricing is a joke.

I have no doubt buyer will profit from this domain. Congrats to both buyer and seller.

True........I have been here for years and sold a lot of domains......and there are PLENTY who want something for nothing. How do I deal with them? I don't, I tell them to move on and stand my ground on price. You have to be patient if you want the price you want.......I've been offered $100k for a domain and turned it down. If you think it has value and your not offered it, say no.

What was the last big sale for a domain that had corp at the end of it??

What was a last big sale that had world at the end of it? Crypto )

Just 2 other 6 digit or more sales with world in the end. So Crypto+Corp also making it into top 3 and the only ones in xx,xxx makes sense.

I assume buyer has already something in the pipeline for further sale. Otherwise, he has to have expectation of 5/10 times higher price down the road, which would be hard to achieve.

Massive congrats! Awesome sale.

Great domain. 364 sales with the suffix "corp", average price $1,622. Imo fair deal for all.

Corp = Corporation

I think the keyword clashes unfavorably with the community's/industry's decentralized-mentality.

The asking price at this point will obviously be premium, given the domain's sales history, so I think there might be more suitable alternatives for a serious crypto entity.

Just my .02 but I LOVE seeing numbers like these attached to crypto-domains, regardless. I hope I'm proven wrong, as I mostly likely will be, given this market goes against prior trends & proves most of us wrong.

Nice sale!

I think $16,500 is a fair price for CryptoCorp.com given the fact that the buyer who recognized value in it had the $$$$$$$$$ coming out of $1/2M sale. $16.5k is not even a drop in the Crypto bucket, see this Cryptocurrency visualization: https://elementus.io/visualization-token-fest

This is how venture capitalists and domainers work too. They would invest $X in Y projects. Their 90% projects / properties would sink but the 10% would give them good to amazing returns. In the long run though, it comes to 35-40% annual returns for the VCs.

Held it since 2000. Maybe sold it too early, but good luck to the new owner.

Still pretty happy with the sale after hand registering it years ago.

Nice sale. But man, you have great foresight. Crypto wasn't even around back then.

Back then 'Crypto' meant 'Cryptography', the science of encryption
The guy who registered Crypto.com did it even b4 2000 and is a professor.
