Rises Above the Rest on New DNJournal Chart After 6-Figure Sale to
Cryptocurrency Company
The four-day Thanksgiving
holidayweekend in the U.S. began right after our last
bi-weekly domain sales report on November 24th but, as has
been the case all year, the domain aftermarket didn't take
much of a breather. Two more six-figure sales came across our
desk, topped by an impressive $200,000 sale ofArriba.com
("above" in Spanish) that Andrew Sievright at
Domain
Source Inc. made via Sedo.
The domain was purchased by a company based in Chile
that promote itself as "the easiest way to buy
cryptocurrency in Latin America."
Tony
Lam rang the six-figure bell too, banking $100,000
for EverydayWealth.com.
That was
also
an end user sale with the name going to Edelman Financial
Engines who plans to launch a new financial program on the
domain next month. This was a great flip for Tony who has
acquired the domain in 2016 for about $1,000 in an
expiring name auction at GoDaddy!
Sedo filled the #3 and #4
spots on our latest all extension Top 20 Sales Chart with two more
.coms - SafeMoon.com at $68,700 and EventHorizon.com
at $50,000. Hypernames.co
fillled out the first five with the highest non .com sale reported - Nomad.xyz
at $49,000. That is one of six non .com gTLDs on the
elite list, including three more in the top ten - #7 M.community
($38,888 at Sedo), #9 Collective.xyz ($37,000
at DNGear)
and #10 MetaFB.org (sold by Youssef Aznagui for $27,088
in another Sedo sale).
Everything else went to the .coms,
including Rich Pennington's $14,999 sale of #17 VapeCoin.com
in a private transaction. That made this week one of the few when the
ccTLDs did not have at least one representative on the Big Board.
They just missed that mark as the #21 sale was Spanish country code
domain Instabox.es at $11,220 via Sedo.
By Ron Jackson
One other
note this week - James Iles at JamesNames.com
uncovered a £273,000 ($360,360) sale of Curve.com that
was made back in January 2020. Based on his documentation, we have
added Curve.com to the 2020
Top 100 Sales Chart in our Domain
Sales Archive where it ranks as the 9th highest sale
reported for that year.
Now, here is a look at how
all of the sales leaders stacked up for the two weeks
ending Sunday, December 5, 2021:

Keep in mind that these are the highest value
cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool, not
a complete list documenting ALL high value domain
sales. Such a list is impossible to produce because many sales
are kept private at the insistence of buyers, sellers or both.
Our procedure for verifying the accuracy of domain sales
reports is available here.
There were six more
five-figure sales off the chart - all booked by Sedo.
They banked $11,300 for Instabox.es, $11,220
for Draft.co and $10,000 apiece for
four others - Fappy.com, Holoscene.com,
NStart.com and ThreeForm.com.
.Com Supporting
Cast
Sedo led the .Com supporting cast
of four-figure sales with XITY.com at $9,900. They added
$8,650 for EarthWorld.com, $8,400
for Everestco.com and $8,000 for MSEZ.com.
Mediras.com and Prodisc.com produced
$7,700 each while Molde.com made $7,345.
The hit parade
continued with Swappin.com($6,988), SpaSynergy.com($6,888) and CapCall.com ($6,711). VirginiaJobs.com
earned another $6,660 and Chekker.com
chalked up $6,600.
Sedo had 59 more

Things were quieter on
the ccTLD front this time around the track withjust

20 Sales Chart with another one from their ledger, Draft.co,
just $80 back at $11,200.
Sedo, who has always
dominated the country code space, went on to sweep all but one
chart entry. That one went to DomainLore.uk's
$4,752 sale of #13 Blogstorm.co.uk. Sedo's haul
included #3 Forum.io at $7,999 and Miete24.de
at $7,345.
Germany's .de
scored a close win the TLD race with five chart entries, one
better than France's .fr with four. Here is how the top

Non .com gTLDs (.net, .org and
others, including new gTLDs)
As you saw on the all
extension leader board above it was a very good couple of weeks
for the non .com gTLDs with a half dozen five-figure
sales reported from that group, led by the $49,000 sale
of Nomad.xyz at Hypername.co. The highest sale in
this group that you haven't seen yet is #7 on our latest
bi-weekly Non .Com gTLD Top 20 Sales Chart. That is
Sedo's $9,888 sale of NFTArt.net.
Sedo went on to sweep
the rest of top ten and 14 of 20 places overall with a roster
that included #8 Crypto.cruises at $6,088 and #9 MTB.net
at $5,050.

Three premium

and Pressure.co at $1,200 each through GrepApps
Technology.
