Just wondering what the general thoughts are about whether the recent trend to legalize marijuana will boost the prices of pot-related domains?

It passed

But; 2021 rollout. Long hold
5 types of permitts
Growers; labs ; stores; extractors; and edibles.

Just another example on the evolving very long term nature of this industry.

Anyone in Vermont won't be buying domains until 2021; at a minimum.

Other than brokers speculation on hand regs ( $250 too $400 )in both Vermont regionals as well as brandables and SEO based .coms.

Its not what the market is today; it's what it is in 2021; at least in Vermont.

Since cafes are a current topic; yes they were approved in Vermont. It's a trend. Although in Vermont again; 2021

Approved

Delivery domains should gain some traction into 2019 ; 2020. For those keeping score. 12 permits for stores and a handful of growers were approved in Massachusetts. First recreational sales happend this week, in a unlimited state with 2016 ballot measures.

Again; the long game here. Nothing happens quickly in this space.

For those looking at now in Massachusetts at least; well 20 brands ( permits) so if say a third of those ponies up for a domain that's 6 purchases. That's how I see it.

I've had monthly communication with people looking into; they have been awaiting a permitt for years now.

Leafboston

The future; just delayed. For if say the Massachusetts commission starts handing out 20 a week and they will; now were into some numbers. As of now a long hold.

If they want to pay it more power to them, they will learn the hard way, inquiry after inquiry telling them they are crazy. If they ever need liquid value, expect 15-20% of what they spent, no guarantees no matter how big the industry is.

would be amazing if it were a group of total burners just roasting GDsystem.

NOt sure what the problem is now ? If that’s the End user they paid for their BRAND and that’s an epic name if your a true Weed fan. For 10k. I think that’s a deal. Now “they” build their brand to x valuation and everyone remembers ??? Oh WeedMagazine , didn’t the dudes who started HighTimes buy that ? Should have sold for more imo . AloHa 🤘🏻

What would your strategy be if you owned similar domains right now? Strike while the iron is hot, or hold em? Would love your thoughts on:

WeedAficionado .com
WeedQuarterly .com

So many options between auctions, buy-it-now, brandable marketplaces, or just sitting on them for awhile. Valuation is hard enough! Would love some advice.

My strategy is what it’s always been - try to buy the best domains I can afford and wait. The key to this though is understanding what these are worth.

There has been tons of over-bidding at GoDaddy lately. My rep clued me in on what scams get run sometimes. Not saying this latest sale isn’t legit but there are certainly ways for people to run up auctions and bail so their buddy gets it on the cheap.

Both of your names are no where near that in terms of relevance let alone value imo. Not much on Aficionado sale wise , seeing Aficionados $2700. Not many things at all on Quarterly.

WEED MAGAZINE is right on point. A timeless name for any Publication/Blog/Web basically dealing with anything in the Industry.

Everyone has their own opinions on what "key" words are "the best" .

I thought weed wasn't so hot a name... compared to say cannabis or marijuana... pot is just kinda bad.. cause of pottery and pots.. which kinda kills it.

lol.. its like dudes on ebay . bidding up their homies Boat/Car/Bike sale. If its gunna sell , they know that , they wait or start the train , bid up. Same shit in online Poker , it goes on in any type of online auction or online game where u can juggle the balls and pass them off. the old HotPaddah

WEED MAGAZINE is as good as it gets. This is a culture that has HISTORY. WEED will never not be used.

Weed and Pot were actually the preferred terms the first time this niche had a surge, which was about 5-6 years ago, and by then nearly all the good names were long gone. They had their heyday, and will again, imo, as this niche is a cyclical, unlike others. The best time to get weed and pot names is now while domainers new to this niche continue to discount them as viable keywords. Get the goods while the competition sleeps...imo.

Quality name, though I'm not sure why anyone would pay that price, short of an end-user. Let's see if the price holds, or if this too defaults to another bidder.

PlanetCannabis is the next one to watch. Will be interesting to find what transpires post auction.

There is Capitol is going into this industry. Its billions. And millions on mid tier operations. And hundreds apon hundreds of thousands even for the smallest players. What's 10k?

We should see in the next few years all of these decent domains sell for tremendous values. Theres nothing indicating otherwise.

Next states too legalize this Spring are New York; Rhode Island; Texas; and Connecticut.

The problem as I see it, is a sloooow rollout of permitts. This is taking years and years .....see above dialage on both a Massachusetts piece and Vermont.

A small 3000 plant grow is capitalized at a few million in Michigan. Sure their are 500 plant and 50 plant permitts; but even these players once permitted drop tremendous sum of capitol or will.

This is why being an "outsider" to domains has a slight advantage in this particular niche imo. If and only if you have some serious knowledge and understanding of the CULTURE and Business. Someone who has grown , sold , someone who involves Cannabis in his or her life on a daily basis. , if you have friends who run farms , know industry people. Understand its growth. its value. Know and understand the Cultures History.

Its then not being a "domainer" your able to confidently Hand Reg names that will be relevant in this massive , explosive industry. And yes. 3 word .coms count. Especially in regards to CBD. The diversity is overwhelming f-ing nuts.

Think of all new business's being created daily. If they were told , oh sorry All the key words were taken. your too late to name your business. Now pay me $xxxxxx for this key word and you can have a succesful biz. Its a joke to hear this from many of you. These people dont care. If your venturing into this fight with the big boyz , your extremely well funded. You create any name you want for your business. If you want to call it Weed , epic. Pay up. If you dont , its a name thats in the hat. Who holds that ticket ? Time will tell.

It is being born as each day goes on. Science is not even there yet. Nothing is there yet. Its ALL NEW. Its giving birth to itself. Everyday advancements are close to impossible to try an keep up with. What worked last year is long gone, given way to the NEW. The advancements being made in Tech alone, NUTS. It is something that has NEVER been seen before. The race is full speed. Millions are equivalent to hundreds of thousands. Billions and Billions and Billions of green fluffy cash are being made , that number is only going to the moon. Hate the term, but theres no denying this.

This circle has about 70+ years behind it. Way past KEY WORDS.
It is the very, very beginning of a New World. A world that no one can predict. A world that will continue to grow. It is truly the new Wheel.
Best of luck to every single person out there. Burn'em if ya got'em

Its been a long time since I have explored domains. I had registered CannabisMonthly.com some years ago and am thinking of selling. Also I registered Canntab some years ago and now there is a company using it. I registered it before they became a business. Canntab therapeutics. I would appreciate some guidance. I own several more also. One related in the wearable area that is now being used in another country. All coms. Please help.

So how many of you guys are getting daily $5-10k offers on your domains similar
to the ones going thru the auctions, that is the true test. Sure there will be sales, but there is a bit of a disconnect with the bridge here. That is what some people who own decent portfolios are trying to figure out. The industry has room to grow, the slots will get filled up, always people willing to pay more, and others willing to pay less, but the good names should sell if sellers are realistic. The constant auction highs just sort of defy the logic of the wholesale marketplace to a degree. Given I had 4 second chance offers due to non payers in this space this year, I am questioning some of it.
