They have a trademark on Horizon dating back to June 12 2020. Don’t reg horizon names.

FB should be smart enough to pick the names before making the announcement so don’t waste your time.
Beside it’s called cybersquatting.

This is a strange reg by Facebook that I didn't understand before. The domain was registered in 2014 and will expire in 2024. The name servers are Facebook servers. There is a chance that Facebook will use the domain in the future.

Besides, Facebook has owned some active and pending "PORTAL" trademarks in some countries since 2020.

"PORTAL" trademark by Facebook in the US:

Unwise strategy. Drop

IMO

Maybe it would explain the high surge of listings & parking views of my meta & metaverse domains ;)
Though in my opinion Facebook won't pick obvious names, they will try to be creative with a brandable name.

alright, thanks guys! I'm deleting the domains - feel free to grab them.

Anyhorizon.com is a good domain.
Would suggest to HODL it.
Not a financial advice.

Best of luck!

what's that? :)

A magician doesn't reveal his tricks ;)

Nothing specific, I have a few domains that may suit the social business aspect they are looking for.
But the chance that they will choose one of my domains out of the multi million choices they have is slim to none.

Overall, I would suggest to not get hyped about the idea.
One may have a better chance at winning the USA jackpot then having Facebook paying a large amount for his domain.

If I had to guess

One of these

Meta
Metaverse
Novi (Their Crypto finance platform)
Portal
Horizon
Connect

Will be interesting to see what it is.

Than it's more difficult to sue them directly when they separate their brands imo ...

So announce you have a reason if correct for legal action. Not a coincidence now.

can you elaborate please? i didn't understand
You just announced you are using inside information to benefit. You cannot now say you had it first or say it is coincidental. So defend it.

Great opportunity to guess Facebook's new name and buy corresponding domains.

Some rumors say it will be "Horizon"... so today morning I bought:

1. ByHorizon.com
2. MadeByHorizon.com
3. EvilHorizon.com
4. HorizonInside.com
5. AnyHorizon.com

What do you think?

Read more about the Facebook name change here: https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/19/22735612/facebook-change-company-name-metaverse

Even if they changed their name, they can afford any domain they want.

Substitute "FaceBook" in for "Horizon", are those good domains? Not really.
