@ianmiles Quality and broad usage aren’t the only variables that give way to distinction. Granted, some teams spend enormous amounts of time on branding - but that’s often because it’s a key pillar of their core operations. Iconic offerings rely on a visual cue/icon to be a flag of sorts.
Renewals and identity are the oil and water of the digital landscape.
After the first renewal payment, what are you really paying for?
You’re paying for “a sense of ownership you don’t truly have”.
@katerleonid Alphabet is actually Google’s parent company. Using an authoritative name like abc•xyz is better than a .com because it makes their point without the need for COMmercial posturing. It literally signals the beginning, end and all that’s in between. The dot represents a bridge.

@NamebaseHQ Sounds like multi-year renewal options might be coming to @NamebaseHQ.😉
Looking forward to the updates. Feel free to give @namertips a follow back before then.
@qualitynames Got it. So you basically view any subsequent renewal cost, from 1 to 10 years, as “maintenance”. That’s a reasonable way of looking at it - especially after paying 100k for the name itself. If only it came with the guarantee no one could file a UDRP etc. Either way, nice sale. 🤝
@qualitynames 🤝 Congrats Hiren! Would you mind clarifying “HealthStrategy .com becomes your permanent digital headquarters — a front door that WILL NEVER NEED RENEWAL OR RENT”?
🤔 The last part suggests paying 100k voids the annual renewal that’s due for all ICANN/DNS names. Is this true?
Blockchain is about what’s on the inside matching what’s “advertised” on the outside.
For example, if it’s named/marketed as “Free”, but carries costs (hidden or otherwise), it’s not Blockchain.
Blockchain is TRUTH - NOT MARKETING. It signals the real who, what, when and where.
@Caesarinny@wdotbush Let’s just say the judicial system would shell out much harsher treatment. This here seems like a reasonable effort to deter their willingness to fight one another - while helping them understand the importance of defending one another. #RealitiesofParenting
@Castello_Bros@GoDaddy It’s a matter of ‘how they dictate worth’ for domains that are or aren’t registered through them. Their ‘formula’ could weigh a mix of variables outside of how much a domain ‘allegedly’ sold for or who holds it. Who knows, they might only give close friends higher valuations. 😉
@Castello_Bros@GoDaddy Judging by their billion dollar worth, and choice NOT to address the valuation tool up until now, it’s clear GoDaddy doesn’t leave empty-handed. They benefit in some way from showing how they INTERPRET public/private domain sales data. Who could they honestly owe a change to? 🤷
