In this week's Top Topics, an investor asks what you would do if you were the owner of Ethereum.com, would you sell it or keep it? Elsewhere, domainers disclose their best month of 2018 for sales and this week's featured poll asks whether .CO or .IO would be better for investment for one-word domains.
The Big Loss: If You Owned Ethereum.com...
Ethereum is one of the largest open-source public blockchain distributed platforms in the world, made famous thanks to the ETH cryptocurrency that uses the Ethereum blockchain. For a couple of years, the Ethereum.com domain name has displayed a basic for-sale page that currently lists a reserve price of $10 million.
In this discussion, investors are debating the future of the domain name, considering the fact that Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, is allegedly not interested in the name. What would you do if you owned Ethereum.com?

New gTLDs: Drop or Renew?
New domain extensions (new gTLDs) for want of a better phrase, have been around for a few years now, with numerous investors forming strong either for or against these new gTLDs. Those who have amassed new gTLD portfolios may be profiting, or they may still be holding a vast number of their purchases.
Here, investors are invited to use an interesting voting system to help domain owners decide whether to renew or drop their names.

Your Best Month in 2018
Success as a domain investor can fluctuate throughout the year, with summer traditionally seen as the quieter part of the year thanks largely to vacations, whilst the fourth quarter may be the most lucrative for some.
An investor has asked a very simple question: What has been your best month for sales in 2018? This discussion has some great, often previously unreported sales data, too.

Poll: Which Extension is Better for Investment?
One-word .COM domains can be some of the best investments available to domainers, with many such names trading for five and six-figures a piece. If those domains are out of your budget, would you invest in one-word domains in an alternative extension?
Two popular alternative extensions are .CO and .IO, but which would be better for one-word investment? This poll seeks to gauge opinion from the community.
