Today
in The
Lowdown: After a 6-year
hiatus, the curtain went back up in India's DomainX conference
August 30-31 in New Delhi. The shutdown was precipitated by the Covid
pandemic in 2020 but with the global domain industry enjoying a rapid expansion
and the popularity of new events like London's latest Domain
Summit, this was a good time for the Indian domain community to step
back into the spotlight.
Also
inside: We've been talking about hot domain sales all summer and from the look of our latest bi-weekly all-extension
Top 20 Sales Chart and autumn less than two weeks away, there is no sign they are about to cool down any time soon. The latest hit parade is led by a
$300,000 .ai sale + a record-breaking .xyz sale and two 6-figure
.com sales.

How
a $3,000 Domain Sale Kept Larry Fischer in The Game and Led to a Legendary
Career Filled With Multi-Million Dollar Deals
|
|
Mild-mannered domain industry pioneer Larry
Fischer has played a key role in many of the biggest domain sales of all
time, including Chat.com at $15.5 million and Home.com at a
undisclosed price but also likely in the 8-figure range (both of those in tandem
with Larry's friend and fellow super broker Andrew Miller). There have
been countless others with Larry's primary partner, Ari Goldberger, as
well solo sales from his base at GetYourDomain.com. As
of this writing, Larry also has 2025's highest publicly reported domain sale of the
year to date in Commerce.com at $2.2 million. So what
is it about this easy going, unassuming guy - a real world Clark Kent -
that turns him into Superman when it's time to close big sales? Full

The
2025 Domain Summit
conference that ran September 2 & 3
in London had an entirely new look
and a vastly expanded agenda compared
to the three previous editions of the event.
An all-star line of speakers was brought in
to give the programming a Euro-centric
focus. That was designed to position
this year's show as the first in a new
line of Summits to be held in different
regions around the world. The next one will
be Domain Summit Africa coming up in
February in Nairobi, Kenya with plans also
in the works for a 2027 conference in the
United States. Domain Summit Founder Helmuts
Meskonis credited three new global partners for making it
possible to adopt this worldwide vision and
kick it off with a re-imagined London event
that showed everyone what they can expect
going forward. Full

The explosion
of Bitcoin and other digital currencies made
many early adopters wealthy but others
wondered if Main Street would ever
get on board. That question may have been
answered with PayPal's announcement
of a new service that will allow merchants
to accept over 100 cryptocurrencies
that can be converted into dollars. The mainstreaming
of cryptocurrency is something
well-known domain industry entrepreneurs
Lars Jensen, Stevan Lieberman, Thomas Medard
and Matheus Leite started working on over
a year before PayPal's announcement when
they teamed up to launch Nicky.me.
Since then, their platform has offered a
simple, secure, non-custodial crypto
transactions platform on which anyone
can receive crypto - and doing it with additional
features that PayPal isn't likely to
match. Full
