LTO' 65% of our sales on Afternic, typically 18 months, cancelation 25% +, in 1-3 months, had 1 sale $ several $k..made 11 of 12 payments and cancelled?? We list w/LTO 85% OF 3,000 domain name portfolio with BINs. LTO'S👍

[NameBio @NameBio]

I did a deep dive into our 290 LTO deals at @afternic and discovered some valuable insights concerning cancellations, early payoffs, and trends.

📉 Cancellation Rates

Our raw cancellation rate was 26.9%, but that understates risk because it counts active deals as non-cancellations.

A better number is the resolved cancellation rate: cancellations divided by completed LTOs.

Historically, among our LTOs that have reached an outcome, about 59% completed successfully and 41% were cancelled.

⏱️ Cancellation Timing

Cancellations are heavily front-loaded. Obviously the more payments they make the less likely they are to walk away at the next payment. But at what point are they really committed?

Of our 78 cancellations, 28 (36%) made only one payment, 40 out of 78 (51%) made at most two payments, and 63 out of 78 (81%) made at most six payments.

Once a deal avoids cancelling after only one payment, its resolved success rate rises to about 70%. Once a deal avoids the early churn window and gets to around six payments, the resolved success rate rises to around 86-88%.

📆 Cancellation and Term Length

Most of our LTOs (87%) were in the 12-23 month range, so I'm not sure how statistically significant this data is. But there was a pretty clear pattern that the longer the length of the LTO, the higher the raw cancellation rate was.

The raw cancellation for LTOs less than one year was 25%, for 12-23 months it was 25.3%, for 24-35 months it was 31.2%, and for 36+ months it was 53.8%.

You might think the longer the term, the more manageable the monthly payments are, and the more likely they'll be to stick around. But in this dataset, longer terms were clearly riskier. Personally, I’d be cautious offering terms longer than 24 months.

💳 Cancellation and Monthly Payment

Looking only at 12-month LTOs, the raw cancellation rate was essentially the same for sub-$200 monthly payments vs $200-299 payments vs $300-499 payments. But interestingly, once the monthly payments reached $500+ the raw cancellation rate dropped by more than 50%.

That's somewhat intuitive though, someone committing to a $500+ monthly payment is probably more serious and well-funded.

🤔 Confusing Cancellations

Three buyers cancelled with only one payment left, which seems pretty unbelievable.

In 8 cases, a cancelled LTO later sold again shortly afterward — 6 through LTO and 2 through BIN. The data doesn’t include buyer identity, but given normal domain sell-through rates and the short timing, these were very likely buyers coming back after missing a payment or regretting the cancellation.

⚡ Early Payoffs

17% of completed LTOs were paid off early. Nearly half of early payoffs happened close to the finish line, but of the early payers, 32% paid off after only 1–2 payments.

📈 LTOs By Year

2023: 13 (53 annualized)
2024: 106
2025: 114
2026: 57 (137 annualized)

We're seeing a steady trend upward as LTOs stack up.

🎁 Wrap Up

I hope this helps you get a better picture of what you might experience if you enable LTOs.

The interesting takeaways for me were how heavily front-loaded LTO churn is, how longer terms reduce your odds of success, how little the monthly payment amount affects the odds except at the high end, and how more than 10% of cancelled LTOs still ended up in a sale shortly after.

Premium Domains — especially .Com and .AI — remain among the strongest practical digital assets: human-readable branding, trust signals, and a powerful bridge to decentralized systems (IPFS + ENS + Arweave). Paired with self-custodied private keys, they deliver maximum control and lasting value. #EssentialDomains #PremiumDomains #AI #MiamiAI @TaryKettle #Crypto #DigitalAssets #BTC #ETH @Grok

[Nourish @nourish]

We’re excited to share that Nourish has raised a $100M Series C, bringing our total funding to $215M 🚀

The round was led by @MenloVentures, with participation from @ThriveCapital, @IndexVentures, @ycombinator, @jpmorgan Growth Equity Partners, Maverick Ventures, @BoxGroup, @atomico, @daybreak_fund, and Operator Partners.

Nearly 200 million Americans live with nutrition-related chronic conditions, yet care today is expensive, reactive, fragmented, and doesn't make people healthier. Nourish has built the AI-native metabolic care model to change that - driving the personalized behavior and lifestyle change that deliver real clinical outcomes at a low cost and great patient experience.

In just four years, Nourish has grown to 10,000+ Registered Dietitians - the largest in the country - completed millions of appointments, and more than tripled year-over-year. Nourish has partnered with hundreds of the nation’s leading health plans to provide broad access for more than 200 million covered lives. Nourish has tens of thousands of providers from over 250 health systems referring hundreds of thousands of patients to Nourish’s care model.

Most importantly, we’re helping patients get healthier:
- 8% average weight loss
- 1.3-point average A1C reduction
- 31-point average LDL reduction
- 23-point average systolic blood pressure reduction

This next chapter will help us grow our clinical network, accelerate investment in AI agents for patients and providers, continue building a metabolic health clinic centered around real patient outcomes, and deepen partnerships with health plans, employers, and health systems.

Thank you to our patients, providers, partners, and team for helping make this possible🧡
