Andrew, author of popular domain blog DomainNameWire. One of my main reasons for attending was to learn more about blockchain and how it can transform businesses. Yesterday I wrote a post about Blockchain and the first comment I got was from someone who I actually have a lot of respect for as a domainer. You have major leaders like Rick Schwartz, Andrew Rosner, Andrew Alleman and many more now becoming increasingly interested in and talking about Bitcoin. At the same time you have people like DomainNameBroker.
Is the domain industry getting more divided or is this an industry where people can only be myopically focused on domain names and domain names only? I personally think it would be damn boring if all the blogs on Domaining. Vito October 19, , 7: I agree with Gene. Go find a domaining only blog.
Just because these blogs have paid Domaining. Hell, look at domaining. They have had Alts. It is the exact same feed as the domaining. I believe it is theirs as well since it is identical. I wonder if he just took it down because of all of these fights about separating domaining from bitcoin? Well, it was up there being advertised on his domaining site for a while now. I love my domaining but I am also a fan of any additional info on any new investing opportunitys.
Matt October 19, , 8: This might call for a Pitch Battle at NamesCon. And then the audience votes anonymously. We find that these non domain related topics are diluting newsflow on Domaining. You might as well write about penny stocks, but why is it on Domaining. Bill Kara October 19, , 9: Domain names are distinct digital assets, as are cryptocurrencies. They are directly related for those reasons.
If you fail to see this, I recommend avoiding investing into either asset. Currency is not in investment vehicle. In fact, the best currency is that currency that provides the most stability. Not appreciation or depreciation, but stability. Richard Hearne October 19, , If that happens people will look back at posts like this and smirk broadly. And to be clear, we will never purchase any cryptocurrency, and we do not recommend to anyone to purchase any cryptocurrency.
It can go to zero in one second. We do not know what Mr. Rick Schwarz brought up and we do not what to know. We did not invest a single dollar in. And we consider his purchase of flowers. So, if he is fallen a victim of cryptocurency propaganda now, we can only feel sorry for him. Please do not post cryptocurrency articles on domaining. Domain name industry is what it is, it is not penny stocks, currencies, stamps, coins, real estate, timeshares, or anything else.
Bill Kara October 19, , Third, cryptocurrencies like gold, like paper money all fluctuate in value. No it can not, and this shows your simpleton understand of how large and vast the market it. There is no going back this is what is coming and everyone interested in digital assets should take notice of cryptocurrency out of principle.
John October 20, , We need to be talking about domains here. Because of crypto, the domain industry is losing steam and a lot of domainers are cashing out. Jijo Pappachan October 20, , 2: Crypto is again digital investment. It is natural that people will get attracted to where money is. No one can stop that. If crypto is dying, you will see the reverse flow. I have written articles like this http: But it is difficult to teach crypto guys about domains, I have noticed.
On the other hand, I have influenced many domainers for crypto. I personally advice to have investment in both fields. One area the domain industry can make use of is the payment systems crypto offers. Should domain blogs talk about Crypto?
If it is somehow beneficial for the domain industry, yes. Have a look at this one as well: Rick Schwartz October 20, , 4: I am never smart enough to figure it out but I do always start with an assumption. I did a survey on Twitter this week to either verify or nullify my assumption on interest domainers have.
This shows the industry is not opposed to crypto. Those that are not interested in that are welcome to ignore. I follow the path even if I got it wrong. I just adjust to new info. That is a VERY clear majority of those surveyed. As for Domain blogs and their content. I read domain blogs to stay on the cutting edge. Domainers ARE cutting edge and that is just another link to crypto. The fact is there are multiple parallels.
I dig hard to FIND those parallels. And if there is no relation, why is Domaining. I think this also proves the connection. Francois Carrillo October 20, , 6: Nic Danger October 20, , 7: More millionaires made in Crypto in the last 3 months than in domaining in the last 20 years. I am one of them, Crypto retired me and my family, cashed out spending every day with my new grandson. Regarding domains, it was a good run, but after 15 years, I lost the passion for it personally that is why I got into Crytpo.
To each there own though. Mike Sallese October 20, , 8: In fact, Crypto domains as a category have been hot with 72 sales so far per NameBio versus 12 in ! They can both lose you money. So yes, they are similar in a lot of ways. Gene October 20, , And that happening is a fairly safe bet, as evidenced by the numerous huge companies who have joined the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance https: So relegating ETHER to the second-tier of cryptocurrencies, when huge numbers of enterprises, as well as some governments, are backing this horse in the race is a big mistake.
Steve October 20, , 7: Took over a year to get ether back out of that. LTC is the little brother to btc. Charlie is turning ltc into a powerhorse that has already completed atomic swaps. Swapping digital assets without centralized exchanges, peer to peer! Once you try ltc you never go back.
Jeff Schneider October 20, , 1: Frank Mueller October 22, , We have learned about blockchain and decided to invest in it. We do not agree that blockchain and domain names are in the same industry.
