Three days ago I wrote about Park.io and their sales so far this year. Mike Carson the founder of Park.io said a record breaker was coming in the comments. He sold Mint.io for $230,000.
Registered in 2015 the name looked to have been owned by Elastic Media Ltd. It then went under privacy showing registrant state PA, where both Mike and I live. Mint is a great keyword for the NFT space.
The Whois has a mention of Sweetspot N.v., they also look to own Casino.me. The domain name moved to GoDaddy from NameCheap.
Factory.io sold for $88,000 yesterday, so Mike is having a great week for sure.
How did he get ownership of these kinds of premium dot io’s? Did he purchase them from the owners? Were they dropped by the previous owner at Park.io?
More and more people, artists, startups and companies are Minting NFTs and many more are sure to follow!
Landmark sale for (.IO extension).
But Mint*com is owned by Intuit, so there will be a loss of traffic from Mint*io to Mint*com into perpetuity. How many emails intended for Mint*io will accidently be sent to Mint*com in the future.
With a budget of $230K there are plenty of premium dot-Com available.
