This morning I read an article about a company that just registered a bunch of "Diem" domains. Something about crypto currency. I didnt' see any threads about this Diem, so I thought I would start one. Here's a link to the article. https://domainnamewire.com/2020/09/04/diem-is-this-facebooks-digital-currency-initiative/ Have/Are/Will you be registering any Diem domains?
I am wondering will folks reactivate the "famous" (and unfortunate) libra domains thread, or start a new one?
You should have entitled this thread " Carpe Diem". Off to read about "diem" now. OK, so they think it will be the new Facebook crypto. If it is, then that will be big, at least initially, but I don't feel comfortable with it, so I think I will give it a miss.
A struggling cryptocurrency backed by Facebook has changed its name, in a bid to get it off the ground and approved by regulators. regulatory uproar that has swamped the project since. Facebook's involvement has proved especially controversial. Some of the bigger founding members appear to have gotten cold feet. Seven of the original 28 founding members -- that's a quarter of them -- dropped out before the association's inaugural meeting in Geneva. The exits included PayPal, eBay, Stripe and financial services giants Visa and Mastercard. The departures are big losses because those members brought expertise in payments and transfers technology.

I risked it all, and registered 3 decent diem dotcoms. When I searched there were even better ones available, but someone was faster.

* be the ceo of a multi-billion company * announce a new crypto currency * change its name every few months * laugh your ass off watching domainers register xxxx variations of your name every time
There are loads of live TM for "Diem" but it's not really the best way to see it I think. FB doesn't risk much; An infrigement would be buying names like "facebook diem" or "fb diem"
For the random diem names to actually have value would be the same as bitcoin, mass adoption IMO. And yet, BTC has to become widely used. I believe BTC and crypto in general is the future myself but if not everyone makes the switch, it will be difficult for IRL exchanges, anything from getting paid, paying the rent, to buying pizzas
