Thanks for the info. How do you feel about (dot)online domains for investment?

Astonishing velocity when you look at the premium pricing of .Online generics, Checking.Online sits unregistered, $1399 entry/$1399 annual renewal. What bank using a .Bank or .Com as their core site wouldn’t do great things with a supporting domain like Checking.Online ….It doesn’t matter if Checking.Online isn’t a .Bank domain, if a bank buys it, it’s over.

no one uses checks anymore.

Isn’t that wild…..Yet every bank website you visit their list of services begins with Checking, more importantly Business Checking

Only in America.

.online is probably the thing since the invention of sliced bread!

If Google registers alphabet.online (if it is still available), there may be a .online bubble.

I turn on FoxBusiness with Liz Claman just to look at her, who also mentioned “are we seeing a bubble?”. Actually two bubbles.
