What you think will be the next trend after DEFI & NFT for the hand register domain?



My 10000$ offer for defi.es is raised to 15000$ (outbound-Linkedin).
After I refused 800-1200-5000(GD)- 8500(EPIKLANDER).

I was lucky to know about DEFI ( decentralized finance) here at namepros Live chat.

I Still remember people were talking about what defi domain they are taking, even I can remember- @Corey was talking about her domain Defi.monster domain.

I instantly checked that almost all defi was taken. However, working in a Spanish Company in my country, I knew about ES extension & also knew how Spanish people use that as their staple TLD. And it was available. So I took it since it was cheap.

I waited long with having faith on it. And now- 15000k & more on the way.

Let's discuss what might be another sure shot to register domains for next defi or NFT.

Funny how people who missed out on the decent keywords in a niche dismiss it as a wave and look for the next "hot wave" and start promoting it......

I've got domains covering

Defi
Neobanks
Dapps
Regtech
and others......

Areas to explore within the finance sector........

Cloud based finance
Fintech
Regtech
Automation
Cognitive/Smart finance
Ai / Machine Learning
Robotics
Self-Service
Data / Big Data / Automated Data / Analytics etc etc
Cashless society


And many many others - the above where just off the top of my head.....

If your looking for the next potential keyword/s keep eye on these areas (and others), as well on those already mentioned and see what comes up in the discussions, news, reports, insight papers etc etc

I tend to read a lot of research papers, scientific publications, and reports to get inspiration for domain names to register. I think that to be ahead of everyone in certain areas requires more than reading articles from news channels like Forbes, it requires getting the information from the same or from similar places like the news channels do.

I would recommend ScienceDirect.com, Publons.com, Academia.edu, link.springer.com, intechopen.com, scopus.com, and ResearchGate.net.

Some interesting topics: Genetic Medicine, DNA Computing, Explainable Artificial Intelligence, Artificial General Intelligence, Extended Reality, Quantum technologies, 4D printing (time is the 4th dimension), Plant technologies (check out this startup: https://www.biootech.com/), etc..

i’m confuses about the point of this thread.

You said no to offer for exact match Defi(.)es

in 4 figure range?! because yu seek 6 figures?

Oook :xf.laugh: i like Defi, wish you luck, but .es..
Good luck to you!! Truly,

NFT is a bubble imo, already showing cracks.
think it works part of the ETH network (crypto)
I think should work broader than “NFT” but I believe in “Defi”, just not your non-com ‘es’ ext

DAO.

Decentralized autonomous organizations and their tokens are quite hot already, but they are yet to be introduced to the mainstream like NFTs. They are the future of venture capital and essentially the future of companies.
Some relevant recent articles:

@sibern - Crypto & Blockchain have been battered unless your going into a competitive aftermarket then there are other areas to look at

Good place to start.......

Have a look at the below - these are the fastest growing tech sectors in the UK according to Deloitte, pick 1 sector to start with.

http://www.deloitte.co.uk/fast50/sectors/

Look for sub niches within the tech that have not been covered as much...... "tech + niche,

Google it with theses words after (one at a time) - trends, news university, report/s, future, predictions, research and start reading and making notes, cross check to see if domains are being registered (doesn't matter if they are) see what types of companies are in the niche and at what stage they are at, have any had funding, are there incubator companies doing research? Start up's? Established companies working in the field, check how likely the tech is going to go mainstream etc etc etc

Plus other things - but a good practice to get into and can lead onto some interesting stuff......

It is about putting in the research, if you enjoy learning then it is not really work imo :xf.smile:

Then you have to push the button and be prepared to hold for the long term.....

Some of my favourite domains are quite a few years away from commercial/consumer applications......

defi just a hot wave, innovation finance will always be there

Innovation finance is a strange combo of words in English. Innovative Finance would make more sense grammatically but not logically, because there's nothing that makes it stand out from all of the other terminologies. Innovative finance doesn't represent a particular sector... Also "inno-" is kind of odd, especially because as it's not a play on the two syllable "Wi-Fi" the way all the other terms were born.

Wi-Fi
Li-Fi
Lo-Fi
Op-Fi
Ce-Fi
De-Fi
..... Inno-Fi??

Anything is possible in this crazy world but say it out loud to understand why it's probably a long shot.

Hi Namefu,

It is not easy to find domains that will be niche in the future
This requires a great deal of professionalism.
Many domain investors is amateur in this forum i think , like me 😉
There is a few real experts

Regards


It's not easy but with adequate research anything is possible. Good research will give you the opportunity to acquire long before a legitimate trend is established. You will also need the conviction to hold onto such names until the future trend comes to fruition. Another big factor is understanding the branding value of the future trend domain you are looking to acquire has for a business i.e can it be a household name? The most important factor, however, is that you have to believe the domain you're targeting to buy will make a strong brand in the niche otherwise there is no point in investing.

For example I acquired HyperTrain(.)com as I believe that the use of hyperloop trains is going to be one of the biggest generational changes in pedestrian transportation. The industry is growing at a rate of 43% CAGR and I expect the majority of developed countries to have them operating within the next 10 years. It's only got a marginal amount of global exposure today but that will grow over time as the niche develops. This name may not get a single serious offer for the next 5 years but I'm confident that it's more than strong enough to become a highly sought after brand within the next decade.

It is not easy to find domains that will be niche in the future

The most difficult part is to predict what 'niche terminology' will be used in the future, and what domain will be relevant for and end-user to acquire, to get a competitive advantage in their b2b or b2c niche. Some niches become mainstream, some niches remain a niche, and others will just fade away. Some niches are only niches in domaining world and too long-tail to be useful in the real world.

Even early domain investors, just like the entrepreneurs and engineers working in that particular niche field, don't know the outcome for sure. So domain investors often bet on several niches and terminologies at the same time, even when those terminologies are competing in the same field. Just to be sure and spread their risk.

Not all these niche domains and niche technologies will be relevant in the future, but as a domainer you will have to make sure to develop a feeling for what may be interesting within the next 5-10 years, and be able to hold your domains. Read all the news, especially boring professional publications, not present only this forum.

Good luck.

Defi and nft have just started, they are still in their infancy.

So did you sell your defi.es for $15000 or not ?

There are a hundreds of niches with huge growth potential but it seems like some domainers don't have the courage to invest in a niche until someone starts a showcase thread. They need a bandwagon to jump on. Most people do not want to think for themselves.

There are so many industries that domainers have made great profits in that don't have showcase threads or the showcase thread just didn't take off for some reason. There is a thread for a niche I made 6k on that died before making it past the first few pages 😂... Didn't stop me from regging and making a profit...I was regging stable coin domains over a year before someone launched the showcase thread for that niche. Same with Dapp domains.

Exercise thinking for your self. Do your own research. Stop waiting for showcase threads.

while "HyFi" is a brandable term it's bogus. Defi is overused. Defi != crypto. It is a movement to decentralize! Banks, Countries, and even cities (S-Coin) can use crypto. Any one can use the base techs ( blockchain, deC-ledgers,...) but you cannot centralize & decentralize. HyFi = ReCentra

However: Hybrid Finance & Hybrid Capital are already old terms in business for business models.

Get rid of trends, look to the root. Handshake, .crypto, new gTLDs if you want investments that have lasting influence rather than short-lived hype. Always .com for great meaningful terms or even exciting no-nonsense brandables.

It is amazing how short-sighted some investors are, eg "only dot-com" or new gTLD haters or blockchain haters, completely clueless as to diversification or preparation. Stay away from heeding that type of useless advice and look the countless posts on folks that have given up or lost it all because they followed it. Generally you will see these type of people dressing up in Disney Monster's Inc costumes or Illuminati fatales.

I think the future lies in blockchain-based domains, and I took some in it. This is the root of the matter. You never know, ICANN could move to a blockchain protocol as well. I also see adoption in new gTLDs and am happy that invested in those long ago. Look to 5-20 year spans. Just like smart minds did in the early dot-com days, yes?

To wrap it up, a great name is great name no matter the protocol or extension. Be smart, be aware. Trends come and go, chances are you will be stuck with useless domains come a year when you jumped on fomo boat. Raise of hands? Many investors will have already made the right choices before before proclaiming that it is indeed, the next big one. I can't see any investor doing so before the fact.

for the hand registers ( buy & garden3y+): neobanks, metaverse, next-gen console wars... the rest I keep silent at. But as for general tips ==> Dive deep into the niche Fintech-->Defi-->chainbased-->NFT. Find the best "soonicorn" and see where they are heading. This is true in any sector you watch.

I feel ultimately centralised & decentralised finance will find some sort of collaboration.

HyFi or hybrid finance will be the way forward considering the platform advantage centralised finance can provide and the transparency that decentralised finance can provide.

HyFi will take advantage of both.

So I feel HyFi or hybrid finance is the thing to keep a close eye on.
