sales Here we go again, Gay.app sold?

[equity78]

Looks like .App is now getting it's first "supposed big sale" moment. Let me make clear there is no verification of this sale and it's being written about more from a what the heck? point of view. If it turns out to be legit we will find out, the organization being mentioned should want to put these rumors to bed if not true. A twitter account @Domain tweeted that Gay.app sold for $1million. … [Read more...]

Are we going to see the first seven digit new gTLD sale? I had some feeling that first one will be coming in 2018...

Wow that is like 3 million dollar potential sales in play this week.

Odd, 101domain has account transfers right from users account now, the paper signing was the old way..(reference to one of the screenshots from article)

 

[HotKey]

^ perhaps a more secure way of doing it. Paper documentation for a million dollar sale.

Too good to be true.

The supposed buyer runs an app already for the gay community.

Blued is the world's most popular gay social app, with 27 million users worldwide. Free to download for Android and iOS now!

The site is redirecting to blued as of now. So that is confirmed, at least. If the price is right, just wow.

A redirect proves nothing. People here have faked sales in the past and did the exact same thing: redirect the domain, or embed another site in a frame.

Ofcourse, it doesn't prove anything. But, the development is still interesting. We'll just wait for confirmation..

always a million dollars with these pump BS sales - they never seem to get verified, hmmm

here's a great idea - before any more get reported on the forum, why not wait until its verified or reported on a legit site

gay.app
premium

Estimated Value: less than $100

Could very well be a sale, they have the money for it, it looks like.

The thing is, there is only one gay.app. Just one company with the money wanting that one dead on domain.

Was this a registry sale?
