As explained to us by a very important domain investor during NamesCon 2016, the LLLL .com market was specifically created by a group of fund managers in China, in order to leverage a millions-strong fund into intangible assets. It is an artificial market, unrelated to any real need or use for those domains, that are being traded as stocks. Domain investors looking to invest long term in these assets should be aware of the particulars of this artificial bubble.
