opinion This 23 letter gTLD has a $55,000/year renewal fee!

[shig]

It is remarkable to me! – who in their right mind would pay $55,000 a year for a gTLD that takes longer to type than most great passwords? I do not oppose long domains, common words are often as memorable as a single character but I would never pay a $55,000 renewal fee on a long .com.

There is only one end-user, I can think of, with the proper funds to waste but they own Alphabet.com which is a much shorter and simpler version that is attached to the best extension and only has 1/5,000th the renewal fee per year.

Domain is abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvw.xyz

What do you think? Worth it?

Why not if some people have extra money and don not know how to spend!!!

They're clearly hoping that Google (Alphabet) would buy it.

After all, they own all of these:

abc.xyz
abcdefghi.com
abcdefghij.com
abcdefghijk.com
abcdefghijkl.com
abcdefghijklm.com
abcdefghijklmn.com
abcdefghijklmno.com
abcdefghijklmnop.com
abcdefghijklmnopq.com
abcdefghijklmnopqr.com
abcdefghijklmnopqrs.com
abcdefghijklmnopqrst.com
abcdefghijklmnopqrstu.com
