Not every short domain is strong. Some are just short.

💡 Today's Domaining Tip 💡 Someone recently contacted me to liquidate a portfolio of robotics domain names. Here’s the reality: I’ve spent almost $0 on robotics keywords over the past 3 years. Maybe a couple of “robot” names here and there (3–5 max), but never “robotics” or “robotic”. Why? Because in domaining, you must understand your end user. Look at the data👇there are only a few hundred new robotics companies being created. It’s a heavy industry, like automotive or aerospace. Yes, it will grow long term… but ask yourself: 👉 Are these companies going to buy your average-quality robotics domain? No. To sell in this space, you need exceptional names and those are either: • Already taken • Or cost thousands at auction Which puts them out of reach for 99% of domainers. My rule: avoid “heavy industry” keywords unless you can afford top-tier assets. Focus where volume, velocity, and buyers actually exist.

OpenCorporates uses translations, so you need to take that into consideration. How many companies actually have the English “robotics” keywords? And even when they do have those keywords, it doesn’t mean they use them in their domain names, which is often the case if you do a quick analysis on OpenCorporates. On the other hand, I started in the robotics industry 20 years ago, and back then “robotics” was much more associated with automation.

@Aladey Of course the important question is the recent change (startup indicator). I don't think that can be found directly in OpenCorporates, so need other resources.

@3rdtimetraveler according to my ai agent : 👉 There is NO sentence anywhere in Afternic’s public terms that says: “You may not resell the domain during LTO” “You may not list it on another marketplace while in LTO” “You are prohibited from flipping it if you pay it off early”

Do you think buying a domain name through an LTO, listing it for sale, and then only completing the LTO payments after it’s sold, before transferring it to the buyer, counts as front-running? I’ve noticed that many of the domains I’ve sold end up being relisted afterward…

X is a website. Every day, everything you use online depends on websites. Even the apps you open and connect to are built around websites from login pages to dashboards, databases, and backend systems. Apps may look different, but behind almost every digital experience, there’s a website powering it. Websites are the foundation of the internet.

@Aladey It doesn't need this, it's just one benefit. Where people get confused is trying to compare .eth to DNS domains... Completely different. Most people won't need a website.. but they will need a decentralized identity they 100% control, that can be integrated into anything. 🗝️

GM 😎 So now suddenly .eth domains become links? Let’s be real:
If you can “wrap” a domain through a gateway, you’re not upgrading it, you’re adding a layer of dependency. If that gateway is compromised, you’re not just risking one name… you’re exposing everything behind it. That’s the uncomfortable truth with Web3 naming today. Until .eth becomes a recognized ICANN gTLD, it remains: No native browser resolution No universal adoption No intrinsic liquidity Usage drives value and right now, usage is gated. PS:
eth .limo is just a bridge.
If you own y.eth, you can access it via y.eth .limo a regular HTTPS endpoint that resolves your ENS name in a standard browser. Convenient? Yes.
Decentralized? Not really.
ens.eth@ensdomains

Security notice: please avoid visiting any eth(dot)limo links for now. The ethlimo team is currently investigating an incident affecting their DNS registrar. Until they confirm everything is back to normal, users should not use any eth(dot)limo links. This does not apply to eth(dot)link and does not affect ENS names themselves. We are sharing this out of caution and will provide updates if needed.

Bitcoin has vulnerabilities with quantum technology, everything has vulnerabilities… even the human body. But following that logic, here’s what I don’t get: If decentralization is the goal, why not build a completely independent DNS system? Why rely on gateways like eth .link or eth .limo for subdomains? Why still depend on traditional internet layers instead of going fully native?

@Aladey Gateway services like eth.limo aren't wrapping the ENS name, they're just translating ENS → traditional web. This doesn't let attackers steal or alter your ENS records. The .limo is more of a read only version. The problem is vulnerabilities on the DNS layer.🤔

Just for your information: since some people recently discovered the Atom portfolio value feature, ... That’s not entirely accurate, especially since Gold and Platinum members can set their own prices x5 some even higher as I heard…, and the portfolio value also includes non-premium domains prices… Here’s mine 👇 and I can assure you it’s far from meaningless.

💡 Today's Domaining Tip 💡 The next evolution of domains isn’t just search or marketplaces, it’s AI-native acquisition via MCP-style integrations. We’re moving toward a world where AI assistants can: - check domain availability in real time - suggest brandable names instantly - compare aftermarket listings - and potentially complete purchases inside the conversation In other words, domains stop being “searched for” and start being “requested and executed” inside AI workflows. If platforms like Afternic, Spaceship, or Atom integrate MCP (or similar agent protocols), they could become: the backend infrastructure of AI-driven domain buying That would shift domain discovery from marketplaces → conversations. But the real question for the industry players is still open: 👉 When will domain marketplaces stop being destinations… and become AI tools inside ChatGPT and other agents?
OpenAI@OpenAI

ChatGPT already helps millions of people find what to buy. Now it can help them buy it too. We’re introducing Instant Checkout in ChatGPT with @Etsy and @Shopify, and open-sourcing the Agentic Commerce Protocol that powers it, built with @Stripe, so more merchants and developers can integrate agentic checkout.

@Aladey For a marketplace, distribution is the key. Afternic has less features and very vast domain distribution network.
