It depends on a variety of things etc

It adds liquidity to his existing portfolio and allows for more bigger price domains or to speculate on the new gtlds that started to appear on the market a year or do before that sale

It all depends on an investors strategy and whether or not they want or need to liquidity or a shift in focus to a different venture etc

Every investor is different
