Curious to hear some opinions on this one. Thanks in advance!


where did you hear of the sale? source link?
anything goes in crypto world as we saw.. but I personally do not like thecryptorate.com
or most other the+crypto+kw.com domains...... as far as I remember nambio doesn't like thme much either.
cheers
Not that it matters, but for the record, I regged this before the cryptorate sold.Not much. I don't think just adding "The" to some term that sold in .COM gives it much value.

If X=99,888 and Y=TheX, what is the value of Y? Discuss.
Tokens.com = $500,000 thetoken.com = $10,000
Slots.com =$5,500,000 TheSlots.com = $5,306
Blockchain.com =?? TheBlockChain.com = $15,000
Y= aX, where a is between 0.001 and 0.02.
Note: Potential for false equivalence due to plurals and time between sales.
There are more recorded sales with the singular 'rate" which is why I picked it versus the plural.Personally like the plural better, so TheCryptoRates would've been more attractive.
Hence the reason why I opted for CryptoRates.io for my personal portfolio.
Either way, I have to agree that the value is limited.
Thank you for this
So basically, somewhere between $100-$2000?
Thank you for your thoughts!I'd go with @Keith on this, $0. Also if it's going to start with a "The" then it should at most a two word domain, unless it's a well known term. Put a BIN of $350 and let it sit for the remainder of the registration period. If it doesn't sell, drop it.
An interesting question that @thevictor has posted. I was about to try to find some comparable pairs, and see that @CarlosJay has already done it (although emphasize his caveat re different times, etc.).
To me it is hard to have a rule, and sometimes placing The is more natural and possibly adds distinction, and other times it is a distraction and harms value. I would not be as negative as those that say $0 for this name, but in general here I see adding The really weakens the name, mainly because there is not one crypto rate, so saying THE crypto rate seems inappropriate.
I see that GoValue suggests about $1300 (vs >$25,000 for the name without the). I would say high $$$ maybe for with The, but probably hard to find a seller, but in TheCryptoCraze who knows!![]()
Unless it's The Domain BlogI'd go with @Keith on this, $0. Also if it's going to start with a "The" then it should at most a two word domain, unless it's a well known term. Put a BIN of $350 and let it sit for the remainder of the registration period. If it doesn't sell, drop it.
