Doing the same thing right now, sipping my drink and reading this foolish comment, you got no idea what you are talking about.

I have businesses on new gTLDs and I am doing perfectly fine. Even customers reaching from countries that I never heard of before.

This is too silly! There are billion dollar companies on new gTLDs online right now.
This is hilarious.

I'm glad you have positives to say about your own experience.

z.cash does just fine as I'm sure many others do.

Who are the billion $ companies?

Led.Lighting - used by PHILIPS ( billion dollar company )
abc.xyz - Google (I personally do not like this extension, but hey Google owns it )

tron.network - another cryptocurrency with a couple of billion dollar market cap... and there are many more with other crypto projects..

We see can see what Philips thinks of this. Alexa ranking 0 and it forwards to a .com subdomain.

abc.xyz was a big deal when it happened. It's not a mainstream site for consumers though, just a resource site for investors. For all the dozens of products and services by Google, any on newg's? Nope.

As to altcoins, sure. It certainly helps usher in an awareness of ngtlds among a decent sized demographic.

The internet is huge. For all the hope and promise of ngtlds, abysmal performance!

This is a forum for domain speculation and investing. You have gurus like @lolwarrior with 0 credibility as preachers to an ignorant out of tune choir.

I think it is not cool to make this thing personal.. We are all domain investors, we might have different preferences on domain names but it doesn't give us the right to judge people and discredit them publicly without even knowing them.

this thread gave me domain cancer

Credibility in domaining starts with being profitable and grows when you have notable accomplishments like 5 and 6 figure sales.

But many are so desperate that someone with 0 credibility earns it from telling them their ngtlds can sell for thousands someday. Sad.

I am pretty sure you know the fact that there are both 5 figure and 6 figure sales with new gTLDs.
Why 0 credibility? Cause he didn't made those sales but he is telling the fact that it is possible..
Come on, you don't have to like new gTLDs. but don't discredit people just because of that.

I see, so it's a bit like a cult or religion then.

Yes, just like the ".com only" cult. And you are being a bit of racist and fascist about it

Lol, or better yet you got the "new G phobia" ?

Proud to say I have never owned a ngltd.

It's not a phobia, it's just bad business. The best new g's are not assets as far as I'm concerned, they are liabilities. Even the tiny % that are liquid move on the 'greater fool theory'. Domain aftermarket is tiny as is, sales to end users and among investors. New GTLDs are merely a footnote of a tiny market.

I don't really get you. If they are doing fine and you are sure many others doing just fine too, than so what?

What is the purpose of the domain names?

Selling .com domains at $100 and calling them quality and liquid domains, so newbies can buy from you? Well that is bad business not investing in great new gTLD combos.

Sure, so the viability of speculating and warehousing ngtlds for anticipation of future profit is a different discussion to which businesses and sites are out there with a ngtld flag.

I call a bad domain a bad domain, doesn't matter what it's extension is. I do not market and sell them for $100 calling quality and liquid for the newbies while hand reg.ing them for .99 cents.
You call this business? Yes, fulltime domainers does that and makes money but I don't find this ethical.
You will never sell a great name for $100, I will pass on that you can never hand reg. a great .com domain today, only place to look for them is aftermarket and you are fool if you think you can buy a great .com domain just for $100 budget. But if you are selling it, that's another story ?

I will just point out you can buy good .coms all day long on the aftermarket for $100 or less. It's that thinking that you can't that has led many astray into new gtlds. People that think that, I can tell they don't actually participate in those markets.
