James Iles confirmed that Clubhouse the popular audio app acquired Clubhouse.com. Earlier in April Swetha from DNGear.com reported she sold Clubhouse.xyz for $4,995. At the time the domain resolved to a marketplace landing page. The .com and .xyz have moved to Namecheap.
Now Clubhouse.xyz points to Clubhouse.com, so they did acquire the .xyz as well. I wonder why they felt like they needed to pick up the .xyz? For instance they did not acquire a domain name like Clubhouse.app which redirects to the futureis.app.
Of course for the amount of funding Clubhouse received $4,995 is a rounding error. Just always interesting to see which secondary extensions get acquired.
Clubhouse.net is owned by LandingPage.com and the .org does not resolve.
That is funny. Likely the result of outbound marketing my the seller rather than them seriously wanting that extension.
Maybe I don’t know Swetha does outbound Paul. I will ask her.
There is no other way those .xyz’s would be selling.
Swetha has said she has never done outbound, all her sales are inbound.
Thanks. Strange to fathom why they would care about clubhouse.xyz then over the 500 other similar tlds.

“There have only been 45 reported .xyz sales in 2020, you have 12 of the top 15 that is quite impressive. Were these just inbound sales or do you do any marketing or outbound sales?
Swetha) In 2020, I have sold around 55 domains. All my sales are inbound. I never did outbound.”
Guess they’ll be coming for my clubhouse.im
