Intel Project Alloy - A Must Read
http://www.pcworld.com/article/3108...first-open-source-third-party-vr-headset.html

The pace of change with new VR product designs is about to increase exponentially.
And while this is one thing to move that along, it's not the only thing.

IMO I foresee AR companies branding as simply AR+Keyword and Keyword+AR and not holo so much. Some definitely will but not outpacing just AR. I don't think holo+keyword is a bad play though by any means for premiums.

AR right now is slow domain wise... but honestly I think it's right where it's supposed to be. I have a larger then most AR portfolio, what excites me now is that I'm starting to see a little bit of action on some of the brandables. But like all things in this niche--- only time will truly tell. One last things... I monitor this space with software and there are a number of sales that have gone unreported. Lot's of new sites popping up

I think your opinions of HOLO will change when HOLOLENS is a consumer item. Mainly if they are the first product in the affordable range. Not that it will not be diminished with competition. But I agree that it wil not be as strong or broad as AR but it really is hard to tell just yet.

I had given that a lot of thought a several years ago and decided to reg only a few niche items with HOLO.

guess we can call that an adult holo handreg.. I did this few days ago:

Holo Amateur
.com

has anyone here got offers or sold holo adult stuff?

or no one even owns any? I mean its not like HoloMilf..com is avail to reg.. but maybe owners not on np... holocasting...com is like 11 years old etc...

whats your take on holo adult names? is it bright future like VR adult?

Hey mate i am the owner of HoloMilf holo been a mixed bag so far. I also have HoloToys.com. So far for me holo been pretty dead so far. I sold ArPorno dot com 2018 to a large porn house but under Nda. Porn names i have recieved some offers for ArFetish.com and ArLesbian dot com etc. So for me porn industry in Ar coming alive in holo dead.

Also had interest into ArPornos dot com too

What is more important $3,000 hololens headset
or great holo keyword brand? End user can find $3000 for the headset! Open your eyes and see the true value. Great holo keyword does not need $$$$ updating like the hardware, only $10 renew fee.

I can see where your opinions are formed. I understand them anyway.

But truth be known, VR hasn't a install base of hardware yet. !0-25M is only a starting point.
We need to see 150-250M units out there (WW).
And that is not going to change till the pricing comes a little more in reach for common folks.
Lets face it, to get someone to spend $500 or more on a complete set-up, there needs to be a couple of apps that are pretty compelling.
So with the hardware in a bit of a limited state, so does the software for those compelling experiances.

It's not to infer that this is not growing. Just not at a rate most of us would like to see.
I honestly believe some of these stand-alones in the price range of $350 are going to change that when they get here. And you always have the high end Vive as a better example of what can be done.
Let's not forget a lot of the hardware that was shown in 'peek-a-boo' form is yet to be released this year and a lot of it in the coming month or two.

So when you look at AR, how can you think that it is going to fly or shine any time soon.
The install base of hardware is almost non-existent.

I still contend that the tech is moving well, just not as fast as most of us had believed.
Everyone knows I have always tried to calm those with hyped expectations but even I am a bit disappointed in the speed of this. Just the same it is still clear to me what must happen to get to that growth level we are expecting.

But keep your eyes on the news over the next few months for the latest hardware in both VR and AR.
I believe it will at least be getting the attention it deserves. And we can only hope for some compelling content to go with some of that new hardware.

I am still interested in 4thQ sales for last year. Good hard numbers, not estimates.
I'm quite busy as of late so if someone catches those reports, please post a link.

Our expectations, like that of a large part of the market, were not realistic.

If we analyze it with serenity it is possible that things are going in the best possible way.

Objectively, I think, that the fact that great players have entered the VR is what guarantees the development of the VR.

An example, if Facebook had not purchased Oculus, it is possible that the latter had not resisted in the market and would have broken like so many startups that have had to close in these early years for lack of profitability.

Only the big ones can provide the resources to advance in these difficult moments for technology.

But keep in mind that there are the main technological companies in the world pushing the VR and soon you will see great results.

Patience, we've spent the worst, I'm convinced, and results will come soon.

On the other hand we must not lose sight of mobile augmented reality, this is what, at first, is what will reach the masses. There are hundreds of millions of smartphones ready for it and, we must not forget the bet that mobile manufacturers are going to make for it.

It is possible that in the Mobile World Congress this year, in a few weeks, we will see news.

I remember this news:

Good luck to all, I hope to see many of your sales published in the coming months.

You went through all of that trouble just to earn 400 bucks?? You could have asked for 5 figures if you just waited 2 more years...Come on...The dot com will be worth high 5 to 6 figures....

I hope it wasn't an end user, because I want to see that baby sell for what it's worth...

No trouble at all, just 1 email. 5 figures in 2 years? I guess I'll never know...

nice sale... fast profit.

you'd probably make more in future.. but that's like 5 years min wait... and its still just an .io

just curious... did you know who you will sell too before you regged?

Yes, I did have the specific buyer in mind before pulling the trigger on the reg. Of course, it wasn’t a guarantee but I was confident that I could make some $ on it either way.

Celebrating the 400 dollar sale of a 5 figure domain is yet another chilling reminder of why I can't take much of the advice very seriously that's given around here, because of course fellow domainers want to encourage their competition to sell low with a "hey, profit is profit right? *wink*" type pat on the back ... This is how the food chain works... Not complaining...i know I've underpriced a domain just to get renewal funds. I've just never gone that low on quality that high before...

A 5 figure domain name that was available for registration last week, what planet are you on?

There's a guy on here who's chuffed to death making a sale (a good sale), made a big profit in the space of a week and sharing it everyone and your trying to turn it into a negative, what is wrong with you?

Winfluence, I'm sorry you're so triggered by this sale. Like I said, it was a hand registration. Next time there is a domain available to hand reg that you can sell for 5 figures, go ahead and register it.

I didn't purchase this domain with the intention of sitting on it for 55 years, waiting for an offer that may never come. I bought it because I was fairly certain I could turn it around quickly.

And yes, profit is profit. I maintain a relatively small portfolio with very little overhead. Paying for renewals is never an issue. I saw an opportunity to make some money and took it.

Best of luck to you and keep an eye on those hand regs...

 

[Kingslayer]

Making profit on a handreg in the space of a week is more impressive to me than buying something from the aftermarket and flipping it.

Selling a handreg in less than a week is basicly selling ice to an eskimo in domaining terms. It's not something i've ever done and not many people will do.

If you're not following the thread don't respond. I never said it's worth that much today.

Triggered? It's like you didn't even read my post. Maybe you need to reread what I wrote unbiasedly to get the right tone.

I agree. Believe it or not (and you most likely won't), but I just sold a crypto domain for 875 to an *end user* in less than 24 hours after hand registering. Broke my own record. Can't say I've heard of anyone selling a hand reg that fast for clost to a grand...

I re-read it, without any bias and yes, you're triggered.

Also, why do you assume this wasn't an end user sale?

Claiming someone is triggered when they insist that they aren't is not a counter argument bud. I'm not into arguing. Congrats on the sale ok?

Thank you man. Congrats on your crypto sale too and I mean that very sincerely.

Turning is earning mate. More sales more cash for renewals great quick sale mate.

While it is yet a larger topic for discussion somewhere else, I could show you that it is in fact the 'BIG BOYS' that we cherish seemingly for having the 'MONEY' to drive VR tech forward, that stifles it's growth and creates a lack of competition and innovation. Nobody new will enter the market of one of those power houses except perhaps a Chinese based Co.. Markets do not grow well from the top down, it is better from the bottom up. Lucky for us, the content market is not the same. But may get there if platforms are not universal. A consolidated market normally happens after a market hits or nears saturation and not from the start of the market.
All of the BIG BOYS have a bit more in mind than just VR/AR hardware in the long term, but that too is another topic for some other time.

...
In other matters...
Hate to disappoint anyone but there is not going to be 1k company's willing and able to shell out 10k on a VR/AR name. At least not in the next 5 years.
The VR+AR market is not larger than the overall names market.
But I remind all that 100 names with a $500 profit is still $50K
A pretty good play unless you have been holding 1k names for 5 years.
Perhaps some should consider digging for gold in the ground. It must be easier!
But we all do what we need to do to sell another day.
