It seems registrations for .kp domains have finally started :o
North Korea is the most isolated and reclusive nation on earth. Getting into or out of the country is extremely difficult and there is virtually no connection with the outside world. Needless to say, .kp was one of the last ccTLD's to become active and so far only a few government-owned websites used it. From the above website it now looks almost like .kp may accept regular registrations ?
I won't even talk about the value. In a country where hardly anyone has access to the web and where many don't even know about the internet, even the best keyword will have little to no value.
But when keeping value aside, it does intriguate me because I'd never espect .kp would ever go truly online. Does this mean the country is finally step by step embracing the web? Will .kp be available for non-residents or only for companies or organisations with business contacts in the country?
If any domain would be a novelty, it for sure would be this one. Even when the value in terms of reselling would be close to zero, having a .kp domain in your portfolio would be like the rarest oddity available on the internet :tu:
