In this week's Top Topics, the owner of a four-letter .COM asks for advice after someone recently trademarked their domain name, and just how useful are marketplaces if you're not using that marketplace's landing pages? Elsewhere, domainers discuss the AngiesList rebrand, and is NFT a trend?
Someone Recently Trademarked My 4 Letter .COM
Trademarks in relation to domain ownership rights can be a complex issue. In this discussion, a domainer has revealed that a company has recently filed a trademark for a four-letter, foreign-word that this investor owns in the .COM extension.
The domain investor is now worried that the company will "steal" this domain that the domainer has had in possession for over ten years. What can this investor do to mitigate the chances of a frivolous UDRP?

How Useful Are Marketplaces Without the Landing Pages?
There are tens of domain name marketplaces that help domain owners connect with domain name buyers. Marketplaces are responsible for millions of dollars worth of domain sales every year, but how effective are these marketplaces if you don't use the marketplace's landing pages?
Anyone can list a domain that they own at a marketplace, but will a marketplace only produce a sale if you use the provided landing pages?

AngiesList Rebrands to Angi.com
Angie's List is an American online directory founded in 1995 that has been a popular destination for millions of people to find and review local businesses and contractors. This week, Angie's List's parent company announced that Angie's List is rebranding to Angi, operating on Angi.com.
This news has many domain investors perplexed, with many asking why Angie's List didn't rebrand to Angie.com or Angies.com instead. Angi owns Angie.com, but Angies.com is listed for sale. What do you think of this rebrand?
