question 183.cc sold for $40,250 on GoDaddy. What am I missing here?

Often I see sales that require a good head scratch like this one.

Anyone has an idea why this sold for so much?

Hi

wait and see what they do with it,
and that will tell you, why.

.cc have been the dead zone for years... until chinese started buying up the numerics.

imo...

This is Chinese buyer or Godaddy want to attract new handregs, not hard to see, as Biggie say let's see if it develops, or as I have observed they stay parked as most 80% of AKA sold domains.

At that price, they must be highly enthusiastic ...

Or just plain 'high'...LOL.

But I do love to see sales like this (assuming it is not simply moving money) as it gives me hope for some of my fringe domains.

I'd be curious to see what's in @Mister Funsky 's fringe domain collection!

Thanks for this

Hmm, reminds me of tulips in previous centuries... anything has value if enough people think there's value.

Dogecoin, anyone?

( Damn, I regged the wrong .cc 's back then )
