There was a live domain auction at the Chinese Domain Festival and China Digital Asset Investment Summit which generated some 150 million RMB in sales.

"For me the biggest news out of the auction is that the Chinese appear now to be buying English words, not just letters, numbers and Chinese words."

House.com sold for 16,200,000 RMB
which is almost $2.5 Million USD, the domain has a Estibot of over $1.8 Million
Banana.com sold for a whopping 13,200,000 RMB which is $2,036,000 in USD, which had an Estibot of under $600K.
Girl.com sold for 2.2 RMB which is around $400K and has an Estibot.com at $1,000,000

If the Chinese start buying English one word .com’s for premium dollars, well that’s a game changer.


That's an article written by Mike Berkens of The Domains.

How do you interpret this? Is this going to be a game changer for one-word .COM domains??

Putting it in the game-changer shopping basket!

When will two word, two-word, and e prefix domains get some traction in the Chinese marketplace?
