In this thread, I will give you my opinion about your submitted new gTLD domain name.

I will focus not only on its numerical appraisal, but also will take other factors into consideration (mainly renewal fee and what you do with the name, where it is presented, etc), to debate whether it is a good investment choice (in my opinion). Just because I am a new gTLD investor it does not mean that I will give good opinion on crappy names - so I will tell you when I see no value or potential. To see examples of new gTLD domain names I personally invest in, you can check my website www.brands.international.

Rules:
1. Only 1 new gTLD domain name can be submitted daily per 1 Namepros user.
2. This thread is related to new gTLD domain names only - I can not give you my opinion about .com, .net, org or ccTLD names like .de or .co.uk names, as I do not have enough direct experience with them.
3. I am not responsible for any damages related to my advice - it is only my personal opinion, although I will really try my best to give reasonable, and well-balanced opinion.
4. You can submit only domain name you personally own.
5. For security and privacy purposes, all names submitted and discussed in replies must be in
keyword(s) / gTLD extension format (for example royal / estate, or bestgames / online)
6. Comments/opinions/appraisals from other members on any name submitted here are very welcome :)

cryptocash / ventures

Interesting thread.
Looking forward to know what you are thinking.
The name has standard, around 35-45 renewal fee at most registrars. It is word1word2.gTLD type of domain name.

Now, what I like is that the string cryptocash goes really well with .ventures extensions!

But ... this string is available in 177 new gTLD extensions at the time of writing (one can check it easily at uniregistry.com), and end users have some alternatives in case they are dealing with cryptocash..
for example this string is now available in .enterprises for around 22 USD...

And that is basically it..if the very close alternative is available for reg fee, you, as a domain investor really do not have any leverage as of why end user should pay some premium to your domain name.

This is not all: it is word1word2new gTLD extension domain name. I am not saying it can not sell (there are some exceptions), but we are still in early new gTLD times, and most startups/companies opt for word1.new gTLD extension type of name. It is understandable - why they would go for word1word2, if one can go for word1 in new gTLD space, and those are still available for very reasonable prices in many cases.

Still I kind of like how it sounds, and providing end user will like it (and will not be really aware of alternatives), it can go for 700-3k imo, with probability of resale in this price range around 1-2% for any given year of holding (I give higher probability then usually, as crypto is HOT now!). Imo give it some exposure and 1-2 years time, check the traffic and offers - if no traffic and no offfers, then I would drop. If some at least high XX offers or good traffic, then I would give it longer try. GL :)

Token / bio

Domain has standard renewal for .bio (atm 40-50 at most registrars)

Well, keyword token is very hot right now. Some very nice sales reported with this keyword recently.

.Bio is amazing extension, just few appraisals above I was pleased to see this with keyword "go"

So all is good with "token" and .bio, but together, it does not make much sense to me.

Now of course, one can try to find some artificial sense to it (lets say it can serve as web related to history of tokens/cryptocoins?), but I think one needs to stretch imagination here a lot, and that is never good sign for a domain value.

Maybe even such domain will sell (name looks like mid XXX - 1,5k to me if I consider it some kind of brandable), but probabilities of that happening are so low, that I do not think it will deliver for you.
The higher standard renewal also does not help at all, its not very cheap to hold.

Only 1 new gTLD domain name can be submitted daily per 1 Namepros user - tell me which one you want :) Also make sure to use / format, otherwise your names can get indexed (and appraisals can not unfortunately be always positive if one wants to be objective, so it is safer not to get names indexed)

Thanks this will surely help to think on. It was good. I appreciate.

Arabica Dot club

Arabica and Robusta are two main types of coffees.

I like your name very much and there are several reasons for it.

First of all, I can imagine nice online business on it, with great business model. It can be either standard e-commerce site which will sell arabica coffee (or simply coffee as everyone gets instantly that associasion that arabica is related to coffee). It can be also club type of business - one can send members of Arabica coffee club monthly samples of best varietes of arabica coffee, etc. Tons of opportunities. When I visit the site I see that forum is installed there, which is another good idea for this name.

Another great thing is that pool of end users is very large - so many people are drinking coffee worldwide.

The name can create great brands, is very memorable, and authoritative.

.Club registry has imo very good marketing strategy ad is very professionaly managed. There are lot of .club sales, so aftermarket is already pretty good.

It seems that name has attached premium renewal to it, but it is very low premium around 12 USD?
That mans that it is very easy to hold this domain name long time.

History of the name is also interesting: first time it was registered in early new gTLD times, August 2014. Whoever had it had dropped it after 3 years of holding (imo huge mistake! in case that was intented to be for domain investment) and then you imediately got it, which is amazing.

I feel this name anywhere between 3k-20k, maybe even more - it is easy to hold, so you have enough time to wait for correct offer, and reject low offers meanwhile.

Math is very good here much in favour of you as a domain investor. Amazing name, just do not drop it as previous guy - I am almost sure it will make you some nice money in future :)

MyCasino / online

Thanks for this thread btw! (y)

You are welcome!

Now regarding the name: everyone is aware of casino / online sale for 200k.

But what are the chances that mycasino / online will sell to end user some serious money?

My personal opinion is that such chances are very very small (close to 0). There are many reasons, but this one is pretty important: owner of casino / online can easily setup subdomain "my / casino / online". What will happen with traffic of end user who would choose "mycasino / online" for his business? Chances are there will be some lost traffic to more authoritative domain name ? Honestly, I am not entirely sure about it, and so will not be also the end user contemplating about this name.

Another thing is that it simply does not sound so authoritative. We are still in early era of new gTLDs and those end users who opt for them require word1 combos in most cases. There are some exceptions, but not so many.

It has interesting history:

mucasino.PNG


This means it was registered very early on, just after .online want to GA (general availability). It was then dropped twice, and OP is the last one who pick it up. It seems someone constantly feels some solid value in it.

I love .online extension, I think it is one of the best new gTLD extensions out there (I also own 100+ of .online names). I just do not see much probability that large end user would go for that with prefix "my".

Saying that, I think that BIN you have actually on (1,5k) is pretty reasonable and there are maybe some chances for sell for this price - casino / online is already sold for large money, so your alternative is worse, but also much much cheaper. Honestly, this is type of name where I am not so sure how it will play out at the end. Wish you a nice sale :)

Block-Chain / Ventures

Blockchain / ventures sold 3 months ago for 42k to ideal end user who already developed the site.

Chances that Block-Chain / Ventures will sell for anything significant are very limited imo.

Main reason is that someone relevant has already his business in version without the hyphen.
Not that hyphen would be much problematic here - it is one of the few keywords which actually does not loose much even when they are hyphenated (see recent 1 mil sale of block-chain / com), but any serious business will examine that, and if they find out, thety are not going to worse, hypnated version.

Mainly (and this is the second reason why I am not optimistic here) is that there are also number of available alternatives, some equal, some worse, but all then for reg fee, for your string in .institute, .house, .foundation, and rest of 177 new gTLD extensions where this keyword is still unregistered.

This is not going to perform for you as an investment, I am afraid. Give it a mid XXX BIN imo, and if no action within a year of holding I would look for something better for my money.

Boston / media

Thanks in advance.

Seems to be registred in early gTLD times, July 2014 continuosly without any drop. It is a very nice name, high quality, ot can be pretty valuable for ideal end user.

It has premium renewal attached to it, which seems to be around 70-80 at most registrars.

The name is really nice, and makes ton of sense. There is only one thing which I do not like -
2 x restriction on the size of pool of potential end users.

First restriction is geographical, as an ideal end user will be from Boston. Now, it is still large and wealthy US city, but imagine the situation in which you would hold something like digital / media or my / media - then potential buyer can come literally from any place of the planet, which of course massively multiplies number of leads, offers, etc.

Second restriction is the usage of .media - it will be digital marketing company, advertising company, media/radio/tv company, etc - again, lot of companies, but it is still limited to those areas. And because of the first restriction, they all must be somehow related to Boston.

Now, it can happen that some large media company from Boston will want to get catchy and all-explaining name, and this will be your ideal enduser. I would think they should be able to pay around 10k-25k. It is a great name, but it can take many years to sell, as the pool of end user is limited. But when such end user comes, it will be larger sale imo. I would definitely hold this one - it requires lot of patience, but it will be pretty profitable, imo.

It is short, it is a kind of rhyme when you pronounce it, and someone might like it.

There are also obvious advantages for .club extension which I detailed in previous appraisals in this thread.

But this domain does not really make a semantic sense to me.

In addition, word "yup" is unregistered in 207 new gTLD extensions. At the time of writing, anyone can register this word in .company, .agency, .world, .fund for less then USD 5, and also in many many others
new gTLD extensions.

Unless there is some special connection between this word and .club, which I completely missed, I can not see any chance for resale if so many alternatives are available for reg fee (just check uniregistry.com for this keyword to find out).

This is great. First off, thanks..

Brokerage / app

I know it's a brand spankin' new gTLD, but what are your thoughts regarding this name's estimated value, and also the short-term and long-term outlook for the .app extension.

Thanks again for this gnarly service @lolwarrior

You are welcome!

First regarding .app extension - I can not comment very much on it atm as it is all very very fresh. One needs at least year or two to see how all works out. Two things which are obvious here for anyone with common sense is that .app is run by Google, and that is a clever and large company so I guess .app will be very well taken care of from many different aspects. Another thing is that huge amount of money went into it, and this is very promising as well. So as for an extension in general, I would be very optimistic here. Just imo.

Your keyword is a typical domainer keyword. It is good, but as we know we all like to pay more less wholesale prices. The end users can be also outside domaining world, in which case the sale price can have that end user feel.

As we do not have yet much experience with resale prices, our only indication can be what people paid for good keywords in EAP1-5 (Early Access Period days for .app - who does not know what is it just google it, it was discussed in detail by some experienced domain investors on their blogs which names were registered in which EAP day and for how much, pretty interesting reading). From those discussions and from the quality of your name I would estimate a realistic resell price around 600-1,2k.

It might maybe sound low for lot of .app investors here, but one should not forget the competition from other new gTLDs for that keyword - at the time of writing, one can get for reg fee this keyword in .guru, .zone, .social, .express and many many others - some of those alternatives are pretty good. Which is not a reallly a good news for a domain investor - the more alternatives for reg fee, the less probability to get some good resell price. Still, app is HOT now, which increase your probabilities of resale if you price it right.
GL :)

Cryogenics / me
This one is not a new gTLD domain name, it is ccTLD domain name. I personally do not own any ccTLDs - therefore I can not responsibly appraise it here, as I do not have enought knowledge in this area.
Thanks for your understanding :)
