Not been posting much in here this year, but still excited about the potential of virtual tech as always
quarter of the way through the year now, so think it’s time for a review, how’s this year going for you so far? How do you think the years started out for virtual tech so far?
Virtual Reality
Been a few decent VR sales this year, so that’s still alive and well, due to the lack of activity in the VR thread i think many people now realise shite to average domains are a waste of time, can only speak for myself, but glad i made the decision drop a lot and work with a small portfolio, i see VR sort of like a sleeping giant at the moment though, you still see a few big sales to see it's still alive and a potential monster, but i believe VR is sort of in a 'calm before the storm' stage right now, similar how crypto went before it exploded.
Still see domains like ‘VRpoker’ ‘VRgames’ ‘VRtravel’ etc as massive potential assets.
Augmented Reality
AR is massive and used like mad, but still i don’t think people realise what the tech is called they are using on SnapChat etc so still question how much people will use the term ‘Augmented Reality’ and whether the term is required in domain names, i don’t think ARKit has been the success Apple was hoping for.
XR
This was all talk on here around Christmas, I’ve been keeping track of it but must admit still skeptical about it, probably even more so now as it’s slowed down a lot. Just checking out the XR thread, not seeing a lot of investments there, just Elad and XRReality posting articles back and forth to each other last few pages. No reported sales on NameBio (ie:- businesses paying to brand around XR) and social media seems to have slowed down with it.
Obviously this is just my opinion so please don’t take it as gospel, feel free to share yours. How’s the year going for you so far and how’s it going for virtual tech in general?
