any idea of how much they paid for it?

 

[AIS01]

i think minimum 1M USD.

LOL

 

[Larion]

I think 1M USD for each letter.

If I count correctly, I think it's 11 letters.



As we all know: the more letters, the more expensive.

I hope that they didn't buy it from an aftermarket "domain squatter".

It is good matching acquisition for their brand

VRSN.com is, which leads to their main site,
and happens to be their stock ticker symbol.

this name feels “reg worthy” like just hand reg someone hit jackpot, if true

the buyer might have been a "teenager" needing that domain for an urgent "school project"

I've used that one before... Hahaha

I was a teenager, but also wanted to sell the names on

Wouldn't DomainNow.com be more in their choice of domain?
