Ethereum.com deal is dead in the water. I know many have tried to contact Vitalik to buy the .com, He couldn't give a rat's as*

There is also ethereum classic which runs the project like mozilla. With the owners less likely to buy at the price - still you would've of thought, They would give it little consideration to gain possible leverage over their sibling's. In any-case, highly unlikely as VB is synonymous with the word Ethereum. EC team were/are private nobodies once Hoskinson left

Now obviously trademarked, The domain has nowhere to go. How does the owner ever get paid? If it was a EMD it could sell elsewhere =no stress. IMO both projects still have a strong chance of being re-branded consequence of DAO attack.

Everybody is quick to run and blow smoke up somebody's as* when something sells, but how has this deal gone so wrong, i noticed the price went up and up, Did the owner balls this up by pushing the price to high?

When you fathom combined wealth of Lubin, VB and Gav Wood would of been absolutely bottom pessimism around $9B usd from token offerings alone, not to mention their personal BTC holdings. Are they acutely aware the domain owner can't do anything and in the end they will have the domain for nothing?

Seems to me, this is now a complex game of game-theory where they know, the domain owner has nowhere to go (The domain owner thinks he's in the same position) ........... but really the domain owner is trapped with a asset he can't sell to man or beast

interesting scenario, the ethereum project business model means both ethereum's aren't really a businesses either.

A swap with ETH will be my answer. Probably a win-win...

I would toss up a forum site on the domain and turn it into a similar version to namepros. A place for people to come and talk crypto. Then I would start looking for sponsors and investors to see how I could monetize the domain. Turn it into a discussion site of sorts so the domain is actually in use and nobody else can lay claim to it.
