discuss What is the .Truth

[satsdifference.com]

.truth , anyone, work for you???

What is this?

Stumbled upon although in my account showing currently only A records and doesn't yet show up in browsers typed-in ..

I wonder @Icann (not no .eth or .crypto though)

Albeit be pls see how many more generics are available! Since before I started 1/1999 hadn't seen such, availables prior..

And we're only $2.99 ea. @Epik.com so grabbed the most I could because love to sell domains..

Gold rush ?!!



- have a special day

I'm surprised Epik is selling domains with such "fake" extensions.

New.net was selling .shop etc, and people had to install some spyware to make them work, and ofcourse most people wouldn't, so they were junk from the beginning, and even if most people installed it, we now have real .shop. What if a real well recognized .truth is introduced.

 

[Compassion]

These aren't recognized by browsers as other tlds are and cannot be utilized as such from what I understand

https://www.epik.com/tld/truth does not tell the truth at all. See text about search rankings.

Yep, the same issues that were brought up in the .o thread you linked to, seem to be still happening.

I don't see anything on this page - https://www.epik.com/tld/truth

about it being an alt extension.

The search engine rankings stuff is false.

Not sure how many alt extensions they have available but all the pages on them should be up front as to what they're about.

You already have people in this thread wanting to get a refund, just like that older thread.

Lol, .truth is screaming "fake news" from the distance.

I mean, the world is changing fast. Maybe after US revolution they will be recognized and become popular (and the revolution is not far away). But I don't see any resale value at the moment, because they are not normal domains (so far).
Compare this with Bitcoin. Ok , it was opensource, and had some nice tech behind it. But this wouldn't convince me to buy any Bitcoin in 2009. (If I did, I would become a B'aire). But still there was no reason to buy it, because it could easily be duplicated etc. .. It is worth something now, because many companies accept it as payment method, and it was advertised everywhere. Similarly, without knowing what kind of power is behind alttlds, it is difficult to make a guess about their future potential.

We're getting there. Cloudflare just launched a gateway for some if I'm not mistaking. Once they get heavily involved we'll probably see a bigger distributed adaption.

Not every alt is equal, big turnoff for
years (decades ?) to come.

Also surprised they're still using these shady selling tactics for alts. It has been addressed plenty of times.

I would probably still get these rogue extensions just in case the tech nazis go full retard in the future.

@Rob Monster

You are a fixer. Please update or have this page updated, as the info is not correct. This was asked for on namepros by other members in the past as well.

A good comparison might also be: selling self-signed TLS certificates to your customers, without telling them their limitations and specifics.

Thanks. I didn't know this, I assumed it was ICANN-certified. Anyway, @Rob Monster says they will refund those would not want it.

It says it on Epik. https://registrar.epik.com/prices/registration/alt

Alt TLDs are designed to run across networks that support the Anonymize.com DNS resolver. The Anomyize.com DNS resolver can be accessed in three ways:

• 1. The free Anonymize.com VPN
• 2. The free Anonymize.com Secure DNS resolver
• 3. Through partner APIs

[TauseefKhan]

serious organizations may use dot org for such a category

 

[Jeffrey]

It's now 4.99 at Epik. I just registered two ( nic and blockchain) since I have limited funds. I only register the most common keywords for none .com extensions.

 

[RogueWriter]

Dang it, got me, did not even occur to me you could do that, lol. Getting a refund.

I regged sweet.truth for 2.95, might use it for a marketing campaign.

 

[satsdifference.com]

.eth is sorry!

 

[MadAboutDomains]

I hope the entire contets of any .truth is fact checked by Farcebook and twttr otherwise they cannot be trusted

 

[jhm]

Type of extension like .truth reminds me of conspiracy groups, good market for those guys
