As we
get closer to the official start of summer, daily temperatures
are rising but they still having caught up with the heat
high end sales are creating the domain aftermarket. Over the
past two weeks, two of the year's five biggest
publicly reported sales of the year to date were
posted with both ringing the 7-figure bell. The biggest of
those was a $2,129,509 haymaker landed by Hilco
Digital's Andrew
Miller when he sold Fuse.com for Braden
Pollock in a deal we
wrote about on May 21. On the other side of the
table, Neil Bostick from QEIP.com
helped the buyer find their dream domain. With this sale,
Andrew Miller has two of the year's three biggest sales in his
column - the other being the #1
sale of Icon.com for $12 million last
month.

|
|
The
second seven-figure bomb was dropped when Rob Schutz at
Snagged.com
who helped Slash Financial acquire Slash.com
for $1 million. Elliot Silver helped spread the
news at DomainInvesting.com
when Rob closed the deal and carved out a place for Slash.com
in thge #4 spot on our YTD
Top 100 Sales Chart.
|
|
The hits just came
on coming with a pair of 6-figure sales that both come out of
the current frenzy surrounding AI related domains. In
this case they were a $225,000 sale of Breeze.ai
that James Booth (DomainBooth.com)
made through Afternic
and a $120,000 sale of AgenticAI.com via the Spaceship
Seller Hub. Spaceship put four more from this
category on the top half of the leader board with domains from
the red hot .ai ccTLD. That quartet was led by #5 JCL.ai
at $95,500.
Sedo
also tore through the Top 20, leaving a long trail of solid
sales in their wake. They swept 12 spots in all including the entire
second half of the honor roll! Sedo's ledger was led by #8
Begin.org at €50,000 ($62,150). That gave the
non .com gTLDs their lone chart entry. Sedo was hitting
from all corners of the court though, also scoring .coms and
multiple ccTLDs. Sedo's "Mr. Premium", Mark
Ghoriafi, posted two of those - #13 Drew.ai
at $25,000 and #15 MiamiNews.com at $20,000.

Keep in mind that these are the highest value
cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past two weeks. 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.

Country
Codes
The ccTLD story
just keep getting more impressive. In our last report I noted
"we list all
five-figure and higher sales in our all extension section so you've often seen the top 10 ccTLD sales before you even get to this
section." I went on to note that readers had again already viewed
the entire country code top 10 after 11 ccTDs reached at
least five figures. Here we are, two weeks later, and 16 ccTLD
sales hit five-figures or more!
That leaves just four
sales on our latest Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart that
you didn't see above - all of which were posted by Sedo.
That quartet was led by #17 Bookie.de at $9,520.
This, or course, is a classic case of the kind of problem
that's good to have. With all of these big .ai sales
chalking up wins for the country code category, the sun will
likely be out for this group for a long time to come. The latest
evidence of this is their sweep of the first five places on the
ccTLD Top 20, led by those huge blasts from Atom.com - Rush.ai
at $300,000 and Seed.ai at $225,000.
For the record, here is how
the top ccTLDs stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday, May
25 2025:

on the non .com gTLD front this time out with just 10
sales reported. Two of those did reach five figures - a $17,888
sale of #1 Recess.xyz that Swetha.xyz
made through Afternic
and a nice geodomain sale at Godaddy
in Capetown.org at $13,391.
Five of the 10 sales
