    That is a 61% decline compared to the first half of last year,

    2018 First 6 months

    Vacation.rentals $500,300
    Home.loans $500,000
    The.club $300,000
    My.bio $59,880
    talk.show $50,000
    Blockchain.ventures $42,000
    Live.casino $34,790
    Go.exchange $30,000
    BroadwayTickets.nyc $25,000
    My.tax $22,500

    That is $612,251 compared to the same period of last period of last year of $1,564,470. Btw I think there is several doubtful sales in both lists (registry sales). I’ve also ignored all the Jiangsu Bangning .top sales from early 2018 which think are not genuine. If they were included the decline comes to 70.1% ($2.03,484 for the first half of 2018)

      Well up.top is actually developed, so you probably the only one doubting that one.

      • Snoopy says

        July 31, 2019 at 11:51 pm

        Well if you take all those Jiangsu Bangning .top sales as real then the decline is even worse.

    Add then all up and then think about the sale of Rx/Com

    • VR says

      July 31, 2019 at 9:59 pm

      Why would anyone do that? It’s comparing apples and oranges. The people who bought those new g’s would have never had a chance to buy Rx.com, which sold pretty low. Only $1million for RX?

      • Snoopy says

        July 31, 2019 at 11:50 pm

        All tlds are competing with each other, so of course they are comparable. New tlds sales are dropping like a stone.

        RX.com probably sold to a domainer, wholesale value. The term isn’t a clear money maker and it isn’t a brand either.

          Anyone checked on .loan lately?? Topped around 2.5m registrations, now less than 200k names in the zone file just a year later. #dead

            August 1, 2019 at 6:13 am

            They are all dying, .loan, .club, .xyz, .top, all manipulated garbage. Smoke and mirrors.

            @Snoopy,

            Be civil. Do not be obnoxious.

            You are sounding like a school teacher again Ethan, no need for your self righteous nonsense.

        • Nether says

          August 1, 2019 at 10:15 am

          RX is not a money maker? Are you high? Seriously are you high?

    Information presented in this post is NOT accurate. There’s no way to know about private sales of many new gTLDs so there’s no way to assemble an accurate list.

    All top-level domains are of equal utility & perform the same function. They’re not all equal in terms of safety, speed & brand-ability. .app domain names are faster & safer (by default) than legacy gTLD domain names (including dotcom) which are not in the HSTS preload & don’t use HTTP Strict Transport Security (by default). HSTS eliminates man-in-the-middle cyberattacks, protecting users from spying on open WiFi networks. I like dot app.

    BTW Snoopy (a.k.a. Rick Schwartz DomainKing®) … had you not blocked me on Twitter, I would have shared my response to your most recent ad hominem attacks & debunked your false claims of dotcom supremacy. Rick, I challenge you to unblock me on Twitter & have a respectful, open debate about new gTLDs & bias favoring dotcom domain names. If you choose not to, you forfeit & lose the debate.

      Again one can only report on what’s reported. Guess what people say everyday that Voice.com is not the largest .com sale, but for this industry it will be touted the highest reported .com sale of all time, and many will quote it without using reported.

      Snoopy fyi is not Rick Schwartz, Rick posts as Rick Schwartz here, Snoopy is not even on the same continent as Rick Schwartz.

      • VR says

        August 5, 2019 at 8:05 pm

        How would someone be able to know sales that were not reported. Namebio is the end all be all.

        Snoopy is not Rick but he will love to get into it with this new gtld fan.
