Strange this

I think Dynadot make some adjustment on T&C and maybe auction of eth .link are part of this new rules

I read this new T&C - one of new rules is Late Fee now is with 10 days before expire ( and redemption period ) until now was only when domain go in auction in expire auction aprox 5 days
Need a new topic for this new T&C of Dynadot lot of changes

This really has nothing to do with .link, or the domain itself, it is regarding a specific domain which is a core part of the framework.

Because of that importance, depending on who the new owner is, it could be used in nefarious ways.

That's good, because it could have been a potential disaster scenario.
It actually kind of shows how much Web3 relies on the current domain framework to work.

Paying $850,000 just because they forgot to renew?

Brilliant!

The name was owned by Virgil Griffith, who is currently unavailable (in jail for 5 years), and despite help from his lawyer, the company was unable to obtain access to his registrar account to renew the name. For the time being, they started eth.limo

maybe big bubba his.cellmate was proxy bidding it no?

I didn't know the story.

I would guess the crypto guys are pretty smart and have backup plans considering possible scenarios. However, it is clear that some of them were dizzy from earning free money and did not care about many critical points.

Not sure they understand the meaning of a "snipe". Paying $800K for a .link domain is not it.

Didn't you hear......LINK is no worse than .com

william,

I was quite intrigued by your post

Do you invest in cryptocurrency at all, or are you only a domain investor ?

Now let me say this, with where ethereum is going and the fact it was built off a .org extension like BTC and still has managed to attain about 10% of a trillion dollar market valuation, I’d say they are doing well enough to respectfully decline ownership of the .com (which) someone else utilizes and is selling for $10,000,000

And given that eth.com sold for $2,000,000 / I would say that the new owners of eth.link did do very well ^ given that 60% of the crypto companies are not utilizing .com domains

Time to get caught up,

Invest in good names, doesn’t matter if it’s .com or .xyz or .whatever - invest in names that make sense, and can be tied to valuable industries
